My advice is to get a job.

Yeah. There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a job that isn't necessarily your "passion". Following your dreams is great and all, but so is having health care, food, and a roof over your head.

A friend and I were seriously talking about opening a vintage clothing shop/gallery space at one point. I am so, so glad we didn't go through with it.

while we're talking about graphic design careers, does anyone here work in an agency? my boss told me i'd be more suited to the freelance lifestyle because i'm self-motivated and good with money (lol) and that i probably wouldn't like agency work because i'd get tossed around from project to project instead of being allowed to concentrate on one thing at a time, but i think agency work would be so much more reliable and i could learn to cope with it idk

ahh i hope i didn't come across as saying that, i'm just saying that i've heard and seen a lot of artists become really unhappy and quit art altogether because they had art related jobs that were lovely

which is why my goal is to have a completely unrelated job and work on art on the side. which is what most illustrators do anyways.

Is it a MacBook Pro? I know only one (1) fact about malfunctioning laptop trackpads, which is that as the MacBook Pro battery ages, it can swell up and press against the trackpad from the inside, which in addition to being annoying, means that you should replace your battery before it breaks.

I wouldn't mind an unrelated job that I enjoy. My favourite part of my retail job is organizing the TV shelves but I don't think I could find an office job that would require me making shelves look pretty.

there's this girl who was in my illustration class that was miserable the entire time there because they didn't just let her draw horses and animals all the time, and now she dropped out and is somehow getting a bunch of children's book deals (though they are all self published small things) and some small community college art show ribbons (which she had framed lol) and all of her facebook statuses are about how she's totally showing everyone from our school how awesome she is and all those people were HATERS and LOOK HOW AMAZING I AM
