Double Life Pearl Is Perfect In Every Way And There’s No Way To Change My Mind She’s Done NOTHING

Drew a Legiana on the dorm whiteboard today!

Reference under the break!

Finally made art for a game I love. Okami is to blame for my need of more story intense and beautiful games

Was falling asleep last night and thought of this. Couldn’t sleep until I made it

In my early teens, I thought myself completely average. I was acing my classes, advanced in three subjects, in band, jazz band, and archery. I qualified for the archery state tournament and I got the highest mark at contest with my clarinet ensemble. And I thought all of it average. I felt good about those accomplishments, but I didn’t let myself feel special for having done them.

There’s nothing wrong with being humble, but I wasn’t letting myself be proud of my accomplishments. I started to think differently when my art teacher in my senior year of high school commended me for my knowledge in both the arts and in academics. What she told me was the most influential thing an educator has ever told me. She admired my willingness to learn about a subject I already had great experience in and my ability to critique and take criticism. She said that I had great potential and that I had the mind to be like Leonardo da Vinci.

Just,,

I had never been told something like that before. Whenever I think college is too difficult, I think back to her.

I try to give people compliments like that now. Knowing how well it resonated with me and inspired me, just think of what others could do with such a push.

consider: teenagers aren’t apathetic about everything they’re just used to you shitting all over whatever they show excitement about
