... I smell an interesting class coming along... >.>
Well this was my last class that day and fourth class in the week, and for some reason I sense more work in this class than Art 311 with Santi. Considering I already had Santi last semester and the day before this class, I was hardly thought about his policies and grading system. However, when he looked at me and said I will sleep less than last semester my reaction was pretty much like this -------->
Anyway.... This class will test me to see how open minded I am and definitely help me be more creative. I am from the south eastern part of Turkey (Adana) and I gotta say I am amazed I am the way I am. I am sure Santi enjoys the culture and the people in country, but I believe he has only been to Istanbul, which is in a way similar to California, its own little country. Adana is slowly progressing, but at the same time tradition and religion seems to be much more important and whatever is considered sin will automatically be shunned by the community. For the past 2 or so years I have been selling yuri/yaoi drawings online. Now being in a Muslim country showing gay/bi/les is a complete hell no. So of course I hide these drawings from my Turkish family because when they find out it will be a live Spanish soap opera x2. Of course cities such as Istanbul are much accepting, but Santi if you for some odd reason are going to visit my hometown, just be careful... ^^;;
-Claps hands- OK back to the subject. Despite a couple of comments I have said in the previous paragraph, besides becoming more creative, I hope this class will help me out, along with art 311, what to do in the next 5-10 years or at least pick a country for me to live in and start my "official" life. Maybe have the courage and a "I don't give a damn" attitude when I talk to my Turkish family about my art and what I do with it.
So yes.... welcome to my insanity...
