But if there's a formal dinner, you'd be the one competing to look the best. * You have to to put up with egoistical "Its-MY-idea/design" sort of people who see only what they want to but can draw amazing perspectives on paper * You notice people "take pride" in staying up and working late nights but pretend it's a burden * You don't watch movies at the cinema. You watch them in a minimised window on your pc while you do 3d. * My studio, my kitchen, my bedroom!!! * You can make sense out of nonsense and make people believe it all makes perfect sense! hahaha * When you doodle on paper, it is usually a 3-d object with rendered shadows. * You know the exquisite feeling of running your hand across a tracing paper that was drawn on with technical pen. * You talk about your colour pencils, markers and drawing pens like they're your bestfriends. * Your mum send you text msgs like you're studying oversea, when in truth you're just 20mins away. *room look like after tornado runover!!
