My friends, the creative types
I have lots of friends who have bands. None of them are terribly successful, no breakthroughs yet. But I think it's great that they are all trying. Maybe it has to do with the fact that for seven years of my life I was in a special music class. So, in fact, were my younger brother and sister.
I know lots of really creative people. People who are dedicated to their art/craft/interest. I wonder though, is this an age thing? Late teenagers and early twentysomethings are basically just waking up to the world. They have dreams—and they have time to pursue them. Is that the only reason why so many friends of mine want to be writers, artists, actors or musicians?
Right now I'm about to graduate from a visual arts school. It's somewhat equivalent of a high school, so it doesn't mean that everyone who goes to our school will be painters or sculptors or graphic designers. But there's a lot going on. I like it. It never ceases to amaze me.
