Chillin' at a Starbucks for the first time in a long time... grabbed myself a tall soy white chocolate latte with whip. Mmmm, still tastes good. I grabbed a couple of books with me to sit down with. One that fell right off the shelf on its own in the Graphic Arts section and one I picked out on "How to be an Explorer of the World". In the meantime I'm looking up every Illustration Agency from a list my boyfriend sent me and... submitting myself. Man, right when I'm about to click 'Send' with my website link and info, I hesitate! Because I look back at my work and think, "it's not good enough." That's so bad for me to keep thinking that...! I have a lot of self doubt in myself. I've been told that many times before but it didn't hit when I was told that again last week because the lady I was talking to told me that I won't get where I want to be if I don't learn to accept myself. And the universe will only deliver what I deserve based on how I measure myself. Poops...
So remembering that, I swallowed that big lump in my throat and hit send, send, send. Trying to make it happen!!!
p.s. just heard of Lana Del Ray, loving her songs right now. {yea, yea, i know she's been around, but i don't like music that much so i catch on late!}
The illustration above takes place at The Grove inside Starbucks :]
