My first formal creative experience was definitely during Freshman year of college. I didn’t take any art courses in High School, but I knew that I wanted to pursue a creative field if I did go to college. I remember in middle school I attended a summer art program at the University of Art and Design back home. I think that the semester will go well, I enjoyed Typography I so I’m sure I’ll enjoy Typography II as well. I love creativity (obviously) I’m not in a STEM field. As for 10,000 hours, I think that’s wild. I never realized that if I ever wanted to become an “expert” in design, it would take that many hours to accomplish. I don’t really know how many hours I have so far, definitely not close to 10,000 though. As for envisioned hours, I’d say I’d be working on projects at least 10 hours per week. This would mean that by the end of the semester, I would have accumulated around 200 hours.
