Illusion of Calm

I call this entry Illusion of Calm because I was ANYTHING but Calm when I got home today and saw a VERY colorful envelope on my bed today.

I GOT ACCEPTED TO CALARTS!!!!!!




I screamed VERY loudly! My poor sister standing beside me went deaf momentarily. I then called my dad who already knew (he got the mail), my mom (her phone went straight to voice mail), my best friend Evita (she didn't pick up), my other best friend Leigh (she was most happy for me) and finally my third best friend, Rosalinda (who was also very happy for me).

I am OVER THE MOON right now!

The First Letter

The first official letter came today. My heart aches for the recipient. I know her pain. I only wish I could somehow lessen it.

No one deserves that feeling of rejection.

It only brings the possibility of my own arriving that much closer. The wait, the pain, the pressure, the stress- it's all real now. I've avoided it for months. It finally caught up with all of us.

Letters?! But it's only February!

In the past week, information has been sifting in...

One current CharAnim student at CalArts mentioned that her teacher left during class to go review portfolios, and unconfirmed reports suggest that someone has already been accepted into the program, this just the end of February. It's not even March yet!

Is it possible their job was not as difficult this year? I may be receiving a letter sooner rather than later... I don't know if I was prepped to find out this early!

More quotes

"I prefer motion to be stylized, because the essential part of the art is movement. You've heard the saying that great animation is not drawings that move, but movement that is drawn. What you are doing is creating drawings that, when looked at individually, may look bad or illogical. But when looked at all at once, they are magical. That's our art form. That's what we do that nobody else can."
