I'm about to run headfirst into the meaty part of the semester, which so far it hasn't been that bad. I've just been running around hysterically over my portfolio. After watching five semesters of my peers wait till the last minute to pull their portfolios together, watching the brain-shattering stress it creates, I promised myself I would not let that happen to me.
As such, I've spent the last three and a half weeks reworking and reworking past artwork to make it better and more presentable. I've also been spending a lot of time on the phone with my dad, getting his opinions on things. Those conversations tend to go like this:
Me: "Dad I reworked one of my logos."
Dad: "OH THAT'S AWESOME!"
Me: "...That's the old logo."
Dad: "You're shitting me."
Me: "Yes, the other ones are the new ones."
Dad: "Oh these look like crap"
Me: "Alrighty then."
I've stopped listening to my dad.
So yea, Spring Break is coming up and I hope to have everything ready for print by then. Late March to mid April at the most. And then, hopefully I can go back to my own art and be more active online.

But you can't blame them, It's like their job from the day you were born. Not their fault if they're really good at it.

You know, while I feel like this is a really bad idea, I feel even more that I just don't care, and that watching all of this unfold might be kinda interesting. Go for it.

Heh, from what you've told me about your dad, it sounds like something of a normal reaction.
Good luck lady, and hang in there!

Screw normal; if you're normal, the crowd will accept you, but if you're deranged... The crowd will make you their leader.
