Evening!

Evening everyone. This is my first post on blogspot, I feel as though it will be used far more as a place to rant or discuss more intimate issues in my life. I find it hard to vent to people over facebook or deviantart, or other community websites, so this is my fall back. A blog is meant to discuss things in someone's life, am I right?
 ------------------------------


So recently I've been listening to a lot of Bo Burnham, who is a fairly interesting comedian in my opinion. I'm sure his parents are questioning ever getting him piano lessons considering the songs he is writing with them. Either way, one of his songs is where I got the title to my blog. So the title may seem a little strange, here is the quote from the song in which it came from.
 
"I am an artist, please god forgive me. I am an artist, please don't revere me. I am an artist, please don't respect me. I am an artist, feel free to correct me. A self-centered artist, a self-obsessed artist, I am an artist."

 The quote probably seems awfully harsh all things considered. It's kind of just like the story to my life right now. I get a lot of credit for drawing and sculpting, and being so involved in art, but it's not worth it. I don't think it's something to be respected in my case, It's all an act.

Anyway, as for my personal life. This past week has been really brutal overall, thankfully today was a new day to a new week, and things can only look up now. I'm still dealing with my mom's recent loss of employment, as well as issues with my dad. I try to keep them relatively quiet though, it's hard to really discuss him with anyone.

Less pressing issues include work, school, and so on. Rent will be starting this week, to some degree anyway. At least it's only one day, and I don't have work to conflict with it. In two weeks winter break will start, which means two weeks off. Thankfully, it should come just in time. Maybe I will be able to pick up some extra hours at work over the few weeks off. The money could definitely be used.

More on all this later, perhaps tomorrow...we'll have to see.
