Week in the Life of a SAIC Art Student 🌱

[@asmilingseoul]

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR THE WARM WELCOME 💛 your comments make my day, week, and month. i wrote a little letter in the description box if you want to read it (also, has a link to my Feb. Spotify playlist which kinda slaps LOL) anyways, thank you for sticking around and can't wait to make more vlogs!

[@gyro468]

Girl! Everything happens for a reason! Perhaps that class wouldn’t have been a match for you and the universe was helping you? Just my mentality- but I can tell you’re a passionate and hard worker so I know everything will go right for your future! Take a breather, you don’t need to take that class, its alright

[@asmilingseoul]

words of wisdom. been trying to see things in a more positive mindset and this statement encapsulates it all ✨

[@itzelcieloo]

AH I’ve been missing you! Nice to see that your still doing well and striving even through the tough times, you’re a hard worker suju and I admire that🥰

[@asmilingseoul]

*crying happy tears* thank you so much 🤍✨

[@itzelcieloo]

[@FilimontheFilipina]

Recently been dealing with the most painful rejection i had. It was from my dream program and campus. What makes it even more painful is because i was so confident, not that I'd get accepted, but in this dream of mine, I had never been more certain in what I wanted to pursue. I worked really hard on my portfolio and I passed!! But eventually they had no slots left. And now I'm demotivated to even enroll back next school year, and tbh I don't know what to do next. That's why my heart broke seeing you cry, but I know, rejection can be protection over something that it isn't for us. I truly believe something is better for us❤️

[@leocartiaa]

YOU DID IT MY DARLING ANGEL !! happy you enjoyed that dinner :’) so so proud of you that week was especially rough

[@asmilingseoul]

king julian with the phenomenal cooking skills 💘

[@megywong]

I'm so glad you're back! Don't worry too much about that class, you could always try to take it next year. Also feel free to reach out if you ever need anything or to just talk to someone. I definitely understand the stress of junior year at SAIC :)

[@doublehelixalchemist8678]

I don’t know if this is possible there, but at my University, you can reach out to the professor and ask if you can sit in the lecture! Most profs will let you do that

[@nani4903]

it's so nice to hear from you again, suju!!

[@asmilingseoul]

it's so nice to hear from you!! thank you for being patient and coming back 🧸♥️

[@xcaroo5730]

I no joke have been checking in every other day to see if you had uploaded in case I missed it and you finally have, I am so happy!!! Hope you had an amazing holiday season and I hope this year has brought you a lot of joy already We love you Suju!!!

[@karma-bomb]

Ive never clicked a video so fast in my life. im glad your back!!

[@asmilingseoul]

I feel so honored 🙇🏻‍♀️

[@v_r_m_yo]

found your channel like a week ago and fell in love with your art and lifestyle. was so sad to realize your last upload at the time was 7 months ago, but then boom you appear again! So glad that you're feeling better, and as an art student in high school i hope to take a lot of advice and inspiration from your vids!!

[@amelieluisabock2537]

heyyy, I'm so happy you're back!!! Love to see whats up in your life !! You are so authentic

[@sonceri99]

Welcome back and all of the warm fluffy hugs! So sorry about not getting into that class, their loss not yours! I've been wondering how you are, where life has taken you, and all the moments in between. Can't wait to see what's in store for you next. And that two-tone art piece? Want to see it!

[@onceagain569]

5:07 I wonder if this is different from wanting to create simply because of what you've experienced, not necessarily what you praise. I think, this just means you have universal appreciation for the artists no matter what they make, in the sense that, seeing art isn't just what inspired you to be where you are, but when you imagine the effort and dedication and the emotional impact you gain from such an experience, you can't help but want to try. That *"connection."* You took this path because you knew you could make something out of it, not because somebody else already did and did it with flying colors. I'm like this personally; I don't have a super big aim when it comes to my photography, painting or even my performance, still I want to learn as much as I can, so I can do as much as I can for the painting or the lighting, rather than for profit or an influencing presence. Even if I'm already at my peak, I don't want to lack knowledge, that in the books and real life experience. I am compelled to do this personally, so let me try to find my true potential, by all ways of the world. You know what I mean?

[@irwinlxrry]

Glad you’re back! That cold brew looks amazing and I’ll definitely try it! And I’m so sorry about that class, I hope you feel better. Thanks for sharing your vulnerable side here.

[@magalovesthesea]

I’m sooo happy you’re back! You go girl, some things aren’t always meant to be, but you’re amazing at what you do and just you sharing is a beautiful thing. Hope everything goes better and take the time you need, we’ll all wait ❤️✨ sending big hugs

[@jenni.b271]

So happy you are back! 💙🥰 Also it took me literally till my second semester of Grad School to find an Artist i love. For me it was always loving Design but struggling with loving Art.

[@quillsandspells1502]

Seeing this in my sub box made me so happy! Glad to see you're doing okay. Thank you for sharing all of this with us, I hope these comments help you get through all the stress a little bit better!

[@rieezuu]

I'm glad you're eating more real food right now rather than coffee all the time . Wish you a best year ! I've been checking this channel almost everyday to see if you're uploading something or not and finally you are ! I'm happy you get through all of the hard time . Everytime you're crying , I'm crying too. Love you !

[@medeeannexo]

SUJU! I have missed you girl! So happy to see you vlogging again and praying that you have an amazing 2022 with more laughter, peace and SLEEP! God Bless 💛

[@kirstenie3185]

so glad you’re back! watching your videos have always inspired me to get back to art when i’m burnt out

[@kylerarndt]

AHHH!!! You're back! I've missed your videos!

[@asmilingseoul]

I've missed you !! Thank you for sticking around 🧸♥️

[@claraplaymymusic]

I wish i could put in words the joy that it brings me to see you post again. You are really important to me. Thank you❤️

[@waterbitten]

Welcome back!! I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who struggles with academic English! I'm really sorry about the class, sending hugs!

[@mechanicgodcreation1]

so good to have you back here! Rejection is so hard, but please don't give up! I had a professor tell me I just suck at drawing, he didn't like me at all and I still found other professors that could apprechiate my skills. Feel hugged!

[@asmilingseoul]

hugging you back! 🧸💞

[@haleyhowarter141]

Yay! Welcome back! I was literally thinking about how I hadn’t seen anything new from you lately and here you are! I hope things are going well despite the hard times :) and don’t worry about that class. You can always take it another semester. I also just really wanted to give you a hug when you got upset :( so, I’ll give you a virtual hug :) stay strong!

[@LizaFlahertyArtist]

Your face absorbed in the teacher playing piano made me cry with joy. Your face reflecting the beauty of the music was a perfect balance. Thank you 😊

[@sa2985]

i’m with you on the class issue, i unfortunately wasn’t able to take design or creative arts this year, which would’ve enabled me to apply for a spot in a museum exhibition that would’ve helped a lot with uni applications if i got in. im still down about it but watching you sad about it broke my little heart but also i was able to find some comfort in someone else going through a similar thing. maybe we were just not meant to take those classes! i wish i could send you a hug, but i’m sending you all my love and best wishes! you’ve got this :-) i’ll get my fix for art classes thru you!

[@Limit91]

I know this is 6 months after you posted this video but as an art student ( second year but first year it was full online) your videos are really nice to be able to watch. Just being able to see the daily life of an art student and how everything is, is really nice to see. Thank you so much for these videos

[@asmilingseoul]

thank you so much for watching ,, sending you smiles for the school year 💌✨

[@Waeva777]

I watch alot of youtubers so I don't typically care when one stops posting for a while, but I was missing you on my feed! I'm so glad that you posted! You really make my day when you post. I'm sorry about the class you didn't get, they say everything happens for a reason💜

[@kagostinelli2341]

I’ve missed you so much! You inspire me to do better and to be strong through the tough times. You always make me smile! Thank you!😊

[@Doggo_does_stuf]

your back! we’ve missed you and I hope you enjoyed your break!

[@asmilingseoul]

Break was good but it wasn't the same without you guys : ,)

[@ayvtt]

Glad to hear that you're feeling better and hope you continue to take care of yourself

[@ariaarts314]

I've missed your vlogs so so much. I'm so happy to see you're back. Hope you are doing well and sleeping and drinking enough water. Take care💜

[@ela710]

Hey Suju, It’s nice to hear from you again. We missed you but seeing that you are doing better is great. I hope you can cheer up again and keep your beautiful smile on even though some bad news happened. I sincerely wish you all the best and am looking forward to your next video, Ela💜

[@ThomtheArtist-js9kp]

Sending you love, prayers, hope, healing, strength and resilience. I am proud of you. You are the hardest working student I know. I am inspired and motivated.

[@moosemoochie]

[@SSfavs]

First of all, I’m really happy you’re back I missed your videos. About that one class, I’m not sure what that class meant to you but when I was in college something similar and unjust happened to me as well but honestly it was a blessing in disguise. I graduated a couple years ago and now I’m doing something I love regardless. You’ll be fine🤍

[@claram9842]

Welcome back! Since your last video I transferred in to SAIC. I was on the fence about the whole thing but your videos helped me make up my mind, so thank you! It's my second semester though, so you've definitely been gone too long 🤔

[@asmilingseoul]

omg no way!! congrats on getting into SAIC and thanks for the warm welcome! im excited to create more vlogs 🥳✨

I am so happy to watch your video again) Looking forward to new content❤️❤️❤️

[@asmilingseoul]

Thank you!! BEYOND excited for this new series 🌱

[@sarac3789]

I’ve waited so long😭❤️

[@chelseajxnes]

It was kinda nice seeing your true genuine feelings regarding not getting the class you wanted. It would've been really easy to just edit it all out and say everything was perfectly fine and be overly positive. Not getting what you really desperately want sucks and that's the truth

[@tolkiedoki]

i just discovered your chanel and i love your personality!

[@gassi_]

Glad to see u again 😆😆
