I go to art school, and actually major in sequential art, aka COMICK BOOKZ. In other words, I've taken my hobby a BIT far. It's a retardedly fun major, with a LOT of prideful brats who had to deal with being laughed at like that at some point - and although you'd think there would be a FEELING OF BROTHERLY LOVE between people who chose to draw comics, there is instead a TON of pride that keeps people from connecting because they want to be taken seriously. There are anime geeks who are looked down on by comic geeks, vice versa, comic geeks who look down on superhero geeks, AND of course anime geeks versus anime geeks. This doesn't change the fact that we're ALL RETARDEDLY DRAWING COMICS FOR A LIVING.

So, even if you are SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE OF LIKE MINDS, there will always be somebody who believes they are "better" than you because they are trying to validate or elevate themselves. The REAL question is, is there any basis, AT ALL, for that? If you work hard in your academic career and you have a hobby you enjoy, and you have good results from both of them, then you're the one on top. There's no reason to give up something that makes you happy just so friends who want to look down on something will take you more seriously, or whatever. SOMEBODY out there will always look down on you, so just do what you want! You'll be happier that way.

...where do you go to school? Because damn if that isn't the best major ever (and something I want to do desperately, if only I could draw, waaaaaahhhh).

Also, icon love.
