Saving the Date

April 13, 2010

Back when I was a wee high schooler, I was a painter. Like, took art every year, ended up in the AP Art class (yes, that actually exists) and painted every day. Back then, I wanted to be a graphic designer, and my art teacher encouraged me to pursue it. I applied to different schools [...]
