Concerns, Fears, Hopes and Goals

          Not necessarily in that order.  I am trying to stay positive!  However, sometimes I fear my goals and my hopes concern me.  Realistically though, I suppose I am most concerned with the apparent work load of this course.  It's doable, for sure, but on top of my other classes?  I have this same dilemma every single quarter, without fail.  What ends up happening is that I get a ton of assignments, have a mini panic attack, freak out a lot, finish the assignments, then feel better.  I can already see a goal forming here...

• Skip the panic attack.  I'll get everything done, I always do.

(I hope that I can stop being concerned about this fear so I can reach my goals :P)

          I fear that I may limit myself or not think creatively enough.  Like I posted earlier, I am really striving to reach a higher platform regarding my artistic vision.  I still don't know what type of artist I am.  I know what I like, what I'm good at, what I'm not good at, and what I want to experiment with.  But how do I channel those specificities into a style I can call my own?  I suppose I should transform this question into a goal:

• Narrow and focus my studies, or at least feel like I'm getting closer to what I need to be doing artistically.

          I think that this class will be great in terms of exposing me to new and different means of artistic expression.  Hopefully I can be inspired by some of them and find my little niche.
