Even with the circumstances COVID has put us in, I've been able to find and become part of a great community, and make friends along the way. My creativity has been tested, and I can tell I approach projects differently than before. It's been amazing.

It's okay to be crazy, most of us were crazy enough to create and call it art.

As a person who doesn't know much about computers, this year's digital environment really forced me to learn a lot. I sometimes made a fool of myself on Zoom, but this year belongs to us and will be remembered fondly.

Foundation year has been a great start to my journey into the digital world. I would like to thank all my professors and classmates who taught me that one image or text can have multiple perspectives. Cheers to the years ahead.

In the long journey of learning, art and creation make me no longer lonely.

Explored a lot. Enjoyed most, was confused by some.
Met a few people and many black boxes.
Was awake when I should have been asleep.
Learned that nothing is wrong, it's just a different perspective.

Glad to say, being certain about what to pursue in the future was my biggest accomplishment of the year. I felt strongly connected and inspired despite the times. Even emotions of frustration has been trying to bury my creativity and enthusiasm for art . . . however, it didn't.
