HELL YEA I WON A FRICKIN SCHOLARSHIP
I wanted to write it here too because I'm always complaining in these journals, especially about school, and for once I wanted to cheer with all of you!
The scholarship is not much, in terms of money, but it's something very important for me.
First, it means that I was recognized as one of the three best students of my year, and after all the fucking sleep lost, it's heartwarming. Especially since my self-esteem is somewhere close to non-existent.
Then, it means that I might have a chance as a professionist. This is the first time that I'm receiving some kind of "yeah, your not a hobbist anymore. You know how to do stuff" thing and I'm glad it has one of my favorite teacher's sign on it (animation teacher, I'm looking at you. You are like a second mom for the whole class).
Also, one of the best part after being called as the scholarship winner, was my friends' and fellow colleagues reaction. They were all smiling for me. Clapping for me. Cheering with me. Nobody was jealous, they even said that seeing me winning the scholarship, was making feel like they did it too.
And I think that's the most important prize I could ever win.
I learnt a big lesson this year: never make competition get in the way. If somebody calls for help, help them. Even if that means they will be better than you. Because one day those guys are going to work with you, and a competent colleague, makes a winning team.
