The Darkside of an Artist

I am at a coffee shop typing this, and I have a huge headache. My well of ideas have dried up and my confidence in the arts even more so.

I consider myself as an artist. I love all things creative and handmade. But right now, I just feel so overwhelmed about everything and not as confident as I should be. I don't think of myself as unique. But I suppose nowadays, unique ideas are as rare as finding a pearl inside an order of oysters in a restaurant. I'm just frustrated with everything right now. I can't concentrate in my homework, which makes it worse.

I suppose this all started when I decided to make my own handmade soap. I was looking online and suddenly I was hit with all this handmade soap. Why would people by my soap when there are tons offered just online? I would like to start sewing again; but alas, I have no sewing machine available at the moment.

I can't rant on and on about all of this, but it'll be never ending. I'll stop now.
