This is a project on creative burnout—sometimes passion can be stressful. Especially in a university setting like USC, sometimes I feel guilty for complaining about my

workload when I have friends double majoring in chemistry and physics, or doing economics and data sciences. But I think it's important to stop and realize that

being burned out creatively is a very real thing. As artists we put so much of ourselves into our work, pouring every emotion, thought, and feeling into something

that is intimately ours. In the week since I've started this project, glitch.me says I've spent 24 hours on it—which I'm sure is peanuts compared to my peers.


Art is wonderful, art is hard.
