rant: the right course?

Was it right for me to have chosen this instead of what I really want?

It’s not that I hate architecture; it's just that I rarely find inspiration when I go in front of my drafting table.

And did you guys have this deep 'hate' (well, I wouldn't really call it hate but dislike? despise? LOL) towards a non-living object before? Yeah, I feel bad for my drafting table but that's what I feel whenever I'm in front of it. It’s like it's all the life I have left and inspiration that if I'm there I get really tired and irritated and shizz.

But this post isn't about my drafting table now is it? Nope

It’s about me taking architecture and not multimedia arts. Yup

My parents (specifically my dad) told me to take architecture instead since the money was there and I wouldn't get anything with fine arts and blah. So I had no say and just shaded that during the application thingy.

I know, i know. that was stupid of me but what was I supposed to do? oppose my dad and shade a advertising arts instead (there's not multimedia arts in the university I'm attending right now... or so I remember) and be starve since i am totally a useless bird outside my parent's nest?! -_-

And now i have to deal with all the conceptualizing and the math and the fact that my blockmates are all better at drawing buildings than me. Mine are all rectangles and squares when they make theirs with circles and triangles and they look totally amazing! And mine is like- poop OTL

Is there an architecture student out there who could help me right now?! Like I said earlier, I don't hate Architecture. It’s just that I don't have inspiration when I draw if I do think of one, it looks like poop when I try to put the image on my head on paper.

omg. I need help. Did you guys also know that it's like the hunger games for our batch right now in the university? yup

The college will slim down the number of students from like 480 to 320 by the end of the school year?! And I'm not sure if they'd continue doing that until we're like in our 5th year of college. T^T

Guys... I wanna pass this. I don't want to bring shame to our family and shizz just because my imagination juice for buildings are as close to a tea cup OTL

I don't relate to any of this but I just want to tell you not to compare yourself with anyone else. No one is worthy to be compared to you.

Now, I want to talk about this whole thing. Your parents told you to take the course because of money. Are you actually considering that the money will help you in life? I'm not agreeing with them because I think you should be able to do whatever you want, but at least consider some things. Maybe you don't need other people to teach you what you need. The only person out there that can teach you what you want and how you want is yourself. There are no limits to knowledge. Think out side the box and and kick it open instead of waiting there for somebody to come and open it up for when all you need is yourself.
