This was the fire the children of my village sat around and told stories before they went to sleep, and tonight was no different.

A lot of my art peers, who are about to graduate when are asked about their future, says that they wish to quickly get a job and be able to pay bills. A number of people asked me what my major was, I said art, and they asked me why, and that I came all the way to the United States for this.
