>>56261480The story used to frustrate me for years, but it doesn’t matter anymore since the faculty responsible most likely fucked off or died
>2006>the school did the usual yearly celebration, this time they introduced several competitions one of which was for drawing>I was asked to join since I was a known artist alongside several students>No problem, let’s get into it>the drawing I submitted took me 3 hours>the teacher was impressed and wished me luck>the day came and went, there was no sign of the drawing results>the rest got thier results, not the one I joined>turned out: I was the only one who submitted anything, the rest pussied out>instead of acknowledging my work in anyway, they decided to quietly cancel the whole fucking thing>a side context: some boomers had advised me for months to not pursue or improve my drawing skills and instead get to medical or engineering college since I was quite good in academia. Thier argument was the future is not certain and drawing won’t give you a living.. mind you that was 2005 - 2006>I turned picrel that day and decided to shoot up the scho.. err I mean throw the sketch book and never interacted with with the club or any of those fuckers until I graduated high schoolDespite how painful it was, abandoning my hoppy since I was 5, it was for the best
