>>3433795I went to uni in September 2017 to study animation. At first I was excited as Hell to go to uni, to make new friends and to become something I always wanted to be: an animator. By the time uni started it was nothing like I thought it was.
I had gone to college previously (Brit Bong uni and college are two diffrent things) and I fucking loved college. Uni on the other hand was a lot different in the wrong areas. The way that we were learning wasn't prefereble. I reckon I would've enjoyed the course a lot more had it feel more like going to work as opposed to being told for 3 hours on what to do and "just doing it" in whatever time you have.
The worst part of it was moving out into the accomodation. I never did anything like this and this experience wasn't all that good. Long story short the accomodation was ass and not only was it just not prefereble but it was impacting my diet and my work, since all I had with me was a shitty laptop that couldn't even run any animation program.
After dropping uni I spent nearly 3 months of just doing nothing. It wasn't until February this year that I started drawing more, but I have not animated anything ever since I dropped uni. I want to but I don't know where to start at this point.
After the first few months of dropping uni I had not put much thought into it, but recently I've been having thoughts at night of "What if Istayed"?
tl;dr: Uni life was not for me and I don't know what to do now.
