:star::star::new: Hiya all my beloved supporters!!! :wave::love::heart:

I't been quite some time, and some bad things happened in my family...and made me realize things that were in a deep sleep within me...

Ever since I can remember, I loved to: draw, sing, dance, and do make-up and nail art, but due to how badly it was seen (as a profession) at the time I wanted to do so for my life, I centered all my energies to the one thing that I think I'm good at, drawing. Yet, when following my dreams of becoming a game art designer, I realized I'm too much of a procrastinator in what comes to drawings....
Yes, I love to draw, but only when I feel like it... If people actually FORCE me (not as a commission, but as a work/project for school of something I usually don't like) to do something, I will get an art block, and I'll actually hate doing what I'm doing.
So after basically 4 months of classes, I realized I don't want to keep doing this degree... I was forcing myself to believe I was liking it, while on the other hand I saw myself falling into the temptation of doing what I always loved to do: doing someone's make-up.
I remember back when I was 5, that I used to play with my older cousin that I was an hair dresser, make up artist, and nail designer (as to only colour the nails, coz at the time you wouldn't even dream of gel or acrylic nails. Lol). And it was something I loved. Helping someone feel good about themselves, helping someone liking to get prettier...
Then, some years later, on my first 11th grade, I was feeling like giving up on my studies, and go take a estetic course for some 6 months I think (now it was reduced to only 160hours intensive course), my mom told me I was stupid to only think about it, and said: You're good at drawing, so keep it up, and find something in that area were you'll feel motivated to work on!
Well, yeat, i though Game Design was it... it wasn't... And no, the other art courses aren't for me at all...

So... I'm really thinking of leaving this degree, and stop wasting my time and money... and get to be a professional make-up artist and nail designer (acrylic and gel systems).
I'm already starting it without the Professional Make-up and Nail Designer artist resume, just to get some money to the get the intensive course of each specialization. I'm pointing on working at cruiser SPA's.
I know you don't know how good I am at make up or doing nails... But so you can get an idea... My first time doing gel nails, people actually asked me if it was done in a specific Nail Designer (she's the best I've seen so far in my homeland). I'm not trying to brag about my work... but after I heard this and things like: "Yeah, that's something that really IS you!" or "I totally see you working on that area, instead of what you were aiming before!" or even "OMG!!! I LOVE what you did on my face!!!! I so want to be your practice model!!!". I felt so motivated to follow my long sleeping dream. And then I looked around me, and I realized how MANY make up brushes I have (over 80) and make up palettes (2 eyeshadow palettes from coastal scents and some other products from there also), and so many other things related to make-up... then looking at my nail polish colections, and nail tips and systems to work on my nails, I was like: What the hell am I doing?!?!
Yeah, I really though "I should do what I love, not what I like."
I really like to draw and colour, I can actually say I love it... but I can't leave home without doing my make-up... and if I don't, I feel naked... I need to ALWAYS accessorize myself... I need to have my nails looking pretty (if using just my natural nails, at least a shiny traslucent coat on it.), I always pick my clothes VERY carefully. And I LOVE when my friends ask me to do their make up, or to help them choosing their clothes, and things as that.
Now when it comes to when people ask me: Oh! Could you please draw that???
Yeah... I will... in time...when I feel like it... when In the mood... when I get ideas for it...
Why? Because if I will draw something, it has to be GOOD. I have to LOVE the result. If by any chance I don't... Either it'll take me ages to finish, OR I will never actually finish (which is what happens most of the time... except for trades, for the obvious reason of being a trade, gifts (when I was the one wanting to do them) and commissions, because I'm being paid to do an EXCELLENT job...).

Anyhow...
These are my recent news...
They are not definitive, since I'm still witing for my parents approval (even though I think if they don't accept, I'll do it anyways... since I'm 21).

I hope you guys cheer for me!
xoxo :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:

:aww: É bom que tenhas ideias de backup :) Não sabia que te sentias assim em relação ao teu curso, mas ainda bem que te apercebeste agora :hug: Mais tarde poderia ter sido um erro, terminares esse curso e depois estar toda a gente à espera que fosses prái desenhar mandada :lol: (claro que poderias sempre seguir a make-up line depois de terminado o curso, mas para quê perder mais tempo?)

Uma decisão dessas é difícil de tomar :heart: Good luck!
