Sadness You may see that I didn't active lately, right?
The reason is I have to go to work everyday since 1/11/2011
Oh yeah, I got I job, full time job. I work as a accountant in a Bank.
That should be a good news, right?
I'd 3 days of work, and get used with the job. My job is not difficult and my salary is quite not so bad. People in my department are friendly and very please to help me with the new job.
I know I have nothing to complain about........ I have no right to complain. I have 4 years in university studying Finance and Banking. Now I have a job in a famous bank in VN. Yes, that' s a good job (as many peoples said that). I know, so many people out there are jobless and dream about a job like this. I should be proud of it, right?
BUT

I'M NOT HAPPY AT ALL!
so don't give me the congratulation for this...........
I was wrong and now I have to take responsibility for my own life. I was not strong enough to study art but study Banking as my family want me to. I was thinking that I can do whatever to have money, and with money, I can do whatever I want. But I was wrong...... I'm so wrong........
Just 3 days at work and I see that all the colors of my life is gone. Now it's so dark and I feel like I can't see the sunshine of my life anymore. More than 8 hours at work and when I came home I just want to sleep. I have to put all my drawing behind, don't have time for my interesting plans on drawings/ photoshoots ..... and even don't have time to reply your messages.....
No pain no gain. I knew that's just the little thing I need to go through. I can not just sit at home and drawings or just playing with my friends, I need to work to earn money, to make living for my own.
BUT.... deep inside I know that this is not the job for me. I need to fly with my passion in ART, not in this boring job!
Part of me said that I have to endure and keep on working. and other part is crying for my LOVE of art. Now 2 parts of me are fighting ~~
And............
I know the first part will win ...
sorry.....
This is just some crazy words of a fresh graduated girl with no experience in real life. Her dream was cover with pink colors and now she just realize it's not that easy at all ^^
But I'm ok now, really ok ^^ I resigned that job and got another one. Now I work as a 2D artist in a game company
and you too, don't give up on your dream
But don't worry, you're not the only one here. I'm also struggling too, since for me, Art and design is so much better than the rest of the world. Yet, when I submit my subject form, in the order of subjects I prefer to study and subjects I'm not, Art was at the bottom two. Unlike you, my parents allow me to choose my own path, but the problem is, in Art, I'm not strong enough. I still need so much practice and improvements before I can actually do that, so not choosing Art is the way I can stick to the safe side.
But for you it's different. You really have a talent for Art, there's nothing to dicuss. You may not be a professional artist now, but don't let that dream die. Every first jobs are difficult. And yet your first job is so perfect, you should make use of it. Stick to it, settle everything, get used to the new pace of life, ensure a stable income, then you will be able to see that things are not that bad at all! Maybe someday when you're settle with your work, you'll be able to spare some time for your interest and study Art if you want! Life is difficult. But hey, when life throws you a lemon, you gotta make a lemonade out of it! Make use of what you have now and don't give up hun!
Try to do this job for some time. May be it'd become OK.
But if not - GO ON SEARCHING your path!!!
=_= well, I shouldnt do that now, after listening to your sad story.
Youve inspired me to do something else
I know I'm late but I'm a little sad about to your think!
Keep holding on to your dream, you have time, your whole life to accomplish your dreams.Even if you don'tlike your current job, honor it. why? This job brings you experience, brings you step by step forward.It makes you live happier and strong.
You have to work hard! It's normal to initially think so, the first few days, weeks.. are always hard, perhaps even the first year.But it should always be positive. you have your own money and the best .. you can be proud of it! Not immediately think negatively that you can forget your artistic life.
You have to go several routes in your live, to found the exact way!
8 hours is a lot - I know what I'm talking ^^ I have a full time job.
My dream was always to be a florist and make the same way as my grandpa.I've done many different jobs, all of them were never satisfactory, but I was able to gain experience and just to make my dream that I always wanted.Now I'm self employed, have my own business with nice employed... soon to make my second business!
I love being a boss, you have your freedoms because you know that you foughtand worked for it ! But I still work a lot, 4 clock start working morning to evening.It's hard but with a lot of fun.. even if you have less time for hobbies,friends etc.!
It makes you happy to look back what you've done in your life
với lại thật ra đi làm cũng là thời gian để gain experience để vẽ tranh mà ^^"
