So I've got a question to ask myself:
Do I write my comic, or do I actually, y'know...do my school work? Because for some reason I can't do both. Every time I hop on the computer I have to choose between writing my English essay or finishing up my latest issue. It's actually taking a decent amount of restraint right now to stop from jumping on my latest project. And I do want to go to college, I honestly do, and I know for sure that I don't want to drop out of high-school, but I cannot tell you how much all of that blows compared to writing comics. I LOVE writing comics. I enjoy normal prose writing, I'll occasionally write a play, but none of it compares to making comics. Nothing else even comes close, to be honest. And I recognize that it's probably what I want to do with my life, and it's probably what I'm going to do with my life, so I don't know why I regret not doing my schoolwork, but...I do. Maybe it's just the way I was programmed. So if that's the case, why can't I stop shoving it aside? I know I have time to do both. As I'm writing this, I have Art History and English to do. And I know I'm not going to do either of them.
I think it's that I now think that school is my side-project, and writing comics is my full time thing. And there's nothing wrong with that, and I'll verbally abuse the shit out of anyone who tries to tell me that's a problem. I guess I just wish I had the capacity to have the best of both worlds.
