Sarina Sylva (Graduate)
I like to do art as my hobby because like all creative outlets, it expands my thought processes and relaxes me. It is the act of summoning any thought and procurring it onto whatever canvas you have. And with modern artists, one can appreciate all different forms of media's and canvases, whether the person is painting with coffee or creating sculptures of wire hangers. It is a purely subjective form of creativity that is appreciated by all cultures and peoples, and nothing increases my quality of life more.
I joined anime club because throughout my life I have always struggled to surround myself with friends that seemed to enjoy my company as much as I enjoyed theirs. But when I came into Mr. Ebner's classroom afterschool with my permission slip, I may have been nervous at first, but with one introduction at a time I met beautiful, wonderful, individualistic people that have certainly changed my life for the better. I was always welcome into anime club and found myself doing anything from rambling about drawing anatomy to my artist friends, or being confused about what was even going on in the anime we were watching.
