learn calligraphy

It’s hard because I am working full-time and the class I intended to take is during the day. I suppose I could wait till next semester, but the price is REALLY steep—over $2000. I didn’t know when I applied, although I really should have looked into it.

To be fair, it’s really a private business disguised as an art school. So I don’t know yet. Maybe I’ll take the online version.

It would start next month. Especially since I don’t have a job. ._. I hope at the least, though, I can get a part time job so it will help defray the costs.

For some reason I thought it’d be a good thing to do on my commute. Then I realize the shaking motion of the train wouldn’t help. :P

Still, I think it will help me de-stress from things and reaffirm I am creative…somehow…:)

...like drawing, I go through stages where I want to learn it, but I don’t really pursue it. I recently bought yet another set of pens and a practice pad, but I haven’t used it yet. A lap desk to use while I’m on my commute would be helpful, though. A clipboard I don’t think will cut it. I can’t find a lapdesk that’s small enough to fit into my bag though. :/

It’s funny though, that I want to learn calligraphy but have such terrible writing normally.

...my teacher did it. I have tried on and off to pursue it, but never got around to it. Although I can do things independently, I think I need a teacher to help guide me with the basics at the very least.
