    I once thought I would pivot to an adjacent career and pursue animation. At a friend’s recommendation, I applied to a school whose application was one question alone: why do you want to become an animator? I enjoy writing thoroughly, and can go on and on about most anything to a terrifying degree of satisfaction. Huddled on the edge of my bed, I typed away on my Mac and hit send…
    By the time a week had passed, I believe both parties knew that I was not meant to be an animator. 😂😂
