    I appreciated that one. I still owe 1300. in student loans and I’m just about dead. I remember that class where we were to write our artist statements. It was probably the most important class if you were going to be anything. I remember being mortified, screaming that I was not taking theatre. I see that it has not changed.

      No, it hasn’t changed. If anything, it’s worse now.
