JAWC Volume 2 : Court this week... meh... I know it's only been a couple weeks into the new year, but I gotta pat myself on the back for keeping steady updates so far... usually I fizzle out by now... but nope, I'm doing fairly well... so booyah... I started JAWC back in 2004.. and 6 years later I still have JAWC around... I never expected to stick with it this long... which is why I prolly don't want it to end... but I have a semi-logical ending in mind... but that's after Volume 3... I know I'm on Volume 2 at the moment, but we're almost at the end of the volume... which makes me happy that I'm actually getting a story made and out there... I remember in my senior year of college, I was talking to my storyboarding prof, and he said that one day I'll write my own story and board it, direct it and put it out there. I was skeptical at the time... and well things moved foward and I now have my own story, I direct my own characters and I've actually put it onto the internet... it may not be the scale one would initially want, but for me it's a perfect stepping stone. My life is filled with stepping stones... from the people I knew at my high school, the people I met at my first college, and then when I matriculated to my next college, the people I knew on the internet, the people I still contact on the internet... I know that to put them as stepping stones sounds callous, however, only a handfull weren't just stepping stones... Those people were the people I fondly remember and know still to this day... I may not keep in contact with most of them, but the ones I do, I'm glad I'm able to, and really wish I could keep in contact with the ones I don't... I guess the point of all this is that even though it'll be 6 years after graduating from college and even though I'm tried and failed at a lot of things, I'm still content with what I have, and am always striving to be better at what I do. Here's to hoping that I will continue to improve and not stagnate in my art, but still always be happy and content with what I have, cause some things are worth holding onto, but yourself is always something you should work on improving...
