It started with sketching and ended with flying...

I consider myself a pretty crafty person, but the one thing I wish I could do was sketch. I have so many things in my head that I would love to put on paper but somehow It never comes out right. My sister is really good with drawing and I admire that about her, but she doesn't really use her skills as much. I wish I could borrow them from her. Maybe she could put them in an envelope and mail them from Guyana to me. I did some research about books that teaches you to draw and before I bought a book I went to the library and found one. I haven't used it as yet, but I plan to.

It's like I have to find time to do everything I want to do in life while doing a lot of other things in life I don't want to do just to please everyone else, particularly the institution of education that I am attending. Sometimes I wonder if I wasted 4 years of my life but then I think well these past 4 years had really reinforced the fact that I love being an artsy person and I want to pursue design. I suppose it's the pressure that society places on you to accomplish a bunch of bullshit expectations by a certain period in your life or else you have failed. I am 23 years old and I feel like I should be in the height of my career.

I want to do what I love, the passion inside of me that has not fully been unleashed! I started out pre-med and all planned out and now I'm at a point of NO PLAN. Well I'm lying, I have a plan, concocted in my head. I want to design, interiors and web-based spaces. I want to make jewelry (visit my shop Krystyle.com, if you like) I want to be an entreprenuer, I want to blog (visit my blog as well CraftyHabit). I want green $ to live and I want to have that fulfilled feeling inside, like when I started and formatted my blog and Etsy shop without any prior knowledge of html, graphics etc! I want to design clothing for myself and embellish clothing for others. Giving them a little piece of me because it makes me grow bigger and stronger. I want to be happy and excited. I love learning new things, that is why I am teaching myself how to use SketchUp. I've been running on their conveyor belt for a while and now I am about to step off and walk slowly, then run, then fly. I want to fly. Do you want to fly?
