5 Reasons Why Art School Is The Best
https://www.facebook.com/MegPieLovesPie

I seriously love art school. I really could not be happier. I love everything about art school; the classes, my peers, my teachers and all the craziness that piled on with it. I wouldn't trade my experiences in art school for anything in the world. It has been some of the greatest times of my life. I really couldn't image my life with out art school.

1. My Peers.

Art school is filled with awesome artists. Each and every single one of us love art in our own way. There is nothing better than being surrounded by artists everyday inspiring you to be the best you can be. There is nothing better than being surrounded by artists everyday that push you to be the best you can be. You are always around people who can carry a conversation about color or fonts. Beyond the school walls these amazing peers will end up becoming your best friends and completely understand you for you. Those friends will always be there for you no matter how rough things get in art school. They will be right there with coffee and donuts to help you during finals weeks. I have met the greatest friend who I will always be able to count on.


2. My Teachers.

I have been blessed with outstanding instructors while I have been in art school. Each and one of my teachers I have had has helped me so much to become the best artist/designer I can be. Nothing can replace the countless hours spent on one project but having a good instructor who can get you there will be much, much easier. They will guide you to better than you will ever expect. They know the true potential that you will never see. They will push you until you can do anymore but they want you to keep going because enough is never enough. Anyone that is in art school connect with your instructors. Seriously, suck in everything they teach you. Steal their secrets. And remember everything they tell you. In the end you will be glad they pushed you so hard to become a successful artist.


3. The Diversity.

From the classes to the students to the teachers there is so much diversity here. No class is the same. No student is the same. No teacher is the same. No day is ever the same. I am really benefitting from all the diversity that I am around everyday. One teacher might like your project but the next might hate it. I have been more opened minded since I have been in art school. I have learned so much about art and design. I don't think if I would have went to another school I would not be the artist I am today.


4. The Classes.

I love art school. I know it is kind of werid to like school and classes in general. But I honestly love my classes I have had to take while I have been in art school. They are so different from what I was used to. I get to do sometime I love and learn more and more about art and design. Don't get me wrong I might be annoyed at some parts trust me but at the end of the class I have a great piece or pieces of art that I get to call my own.


5. The Deadlines.

As much as everyone hate them I find them to be awesome. Deadlines are our friends, even though every one complains about them. Deadlines will help get your butt into gear to get a project done instead of procrastinating. Having deadlines have helped me learn how to mange my time and work a lot no matter what it takes. Deadlines force you to work and keep working. If you make it in the art and design world you are going to have a lot more deadlines.

All and all I really enjoy being in art school. I don't think I could have picked a better school for myself. And hands down this has been the best decision of my whole life.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
