My teacher wasn't too pleased, I had a lot of trouble with math so I wasn't a very good student. She said I wouldn't pass the entrance exams and that I should take up a trade instead. Well, I was going to show her! I got a tutor and studied very hard. We had to submit a portfolio of artwork and even had to go and do some drawing exams from a still life.

I remember that after the interview I was sure I had flunked out because my answer to most of the questions was, "I don't know! Later, when the results were posted, I couldn't see my name on the list and I was crushed! But my dad stopped by and looked at the list and said, "No, your name is on the list" and I am like Where?

And he points "Right here" and sure enough my name was there! At my previous school I didn't fit in very well, I was different. But at art school I did fit in, because everyone was different!
