Had a job interview today. It felt like it went alright. I wish I could have the experience where I knew I just KILLED it, though.
I'll know at the beginning of next week — after originally being told I'd know TODAY — whether I'm moving onto the final interview round.
What would you say is your proudest achievement (art or otherwise) ?
So far it’s working for Rooster Teeth, I got to do backgrounds for their show Nomad of Nowhere for a few episodes. So far that’s the only animation experience I got to have, it was stressful but super rewarding.
No word on season 2 just yet, I have to send out some emails
There are two main sides to the current internal war.
One is convinced we are going to fail the exam no matter how hard we study. This is regarded as the Worst Thing. It leads directly into some pretty nasty catastrophizing and self-deprecation, even though we have gone over again and again the plan for what happens if we do fail out.
The other is convinced we can only pass the exam if we study every waking moment, and push ourself too much. While the first side brings some kind of peace (”We’re going to fail anyway so we don’t have to break ourself trying to study”), this side brings only anxiety. The feeling that we need to be studying at all times. That if we slack off for even an hour, we are going to fail, and it will be our fault.
All of this is very difficult for me to navigate. My take on the situation is this:
We have high odds of failure. That said, we also have 2 additional attempts to take the exam this year. Following that, we can re-apply to take the exam next year; tedious, but possible.
If we fail out this year, it is not a sign of our potential. It is a sign that we have been out of school and out of the field for a year and a half. Reviewing an entire 2 years of academic and clinical information takes time. Time that we did not manage well, true--and we can be better about that for the next attempt, if necessary.
Studying involves balance. You can not study effectively if you are not taking care of your body and mind--spending every moment studying, or worrying about studying, is counterproductive to information retention.
Even if we fail, we will be all right.

Here’s the daily aesthetic of a girl who loves cats, the city, and what she’s doing with her life despite the madness of a part time job, an internship, and soon enough three online classes 💕
I kind of wish I could get out of tech right now but the problem is that I'm not one of those tech guys who made a shit ton of money in tech, so I can't afford to get out of tech, since tech is the skillset that makes me employable.
today at my marketing internship I found a massive framed photo of Joe Biden in the storage closet and apparently he visited the museum and while shaking our group sales manager's hand told her that she had the bluest eyes he'd ever seen
