A 13 month calendar does divide the weeks up into neater 4 week chunks though. So each month would start on a Monday, with one or two days left over at the end of the year, depending on whether it's a leap year or not.

/2 That's an insane amount on expectation and pressure to put on yourself. I do also think that because of educational testing in our youth it makes people afraid to fail. Give yourself goals if you need that structure but don't forget to enjoy the journey.

/1 Growth mindset vs a Fixed mindset and it can apply to all sorts of things including art. I've seen similar attitudes when it comes to learning new skills like playing an instrument. They look too far towards the end goal and beat themselves up for picking up the tool and not instantly being good.

"Cloud Dancer" sounds a lot more whimsical than light greige. A triumph in marketing, I'll give them that.

It is a bit of a "stuck between a rock and a hard place" situation. Especially if you want to keep open the option of getting hired in a full time role.

What I've been doing the last few years is buying a code on Amazon during the Black Friday sales as it seems to be the cheapest price that I've seen. However I'm in the UK and using the student version so I don't know if the non-student version is as competitively priced.

/2 But yes get your fundamentals down with graphite. I did GCSE Art mostly just with graphite pencil because that's what I could afford. Or just have fun. I think we sometimes get too bogged down on needing to get gud that we forget to have fun with it.

/1 It surprised me when the people of the internet told me that Crayola were the cheap colouring pencils. For kid me they were #goals. I had poundshop colour pencils where the wood would get shredded to pieces when you sharpened them.

I actually think it's a bigger problem than we realise. Especially when you have websites regurgitating the same copy paste information but good enough SEO to hit the top of the search results. Add in the AI hallucinating rubbish and I think we are in danger of an information vacuum.
