Can't believe I never found this thread before... I could've sworn I posted something in a similar thread, but I must be loosing it.
I used to make a lot of kiddie crafts stuff when I was younger... or just make stuffed "people" out of socks and rags. (Didn't matter if they were old or new, I used them). That has stemmed off to me making small fuzzball people with store-bought craft materials to this day, though I don't make them as much as I used to, and all but one of what I had are now currently missing.
I also draw a bit. Haven't been into much art lately, but back in high school I used to take classes, and definitely see that I've fallen by the wayside since then... I still have a lot of unfinished sketches that I have yet to scan, and what's on my Deviant Art account is nearly 1/4 of what works I've done between high school and now, ranging from sprites and anime sketches to clay works and paintings. I'm just lazy in getting them uploaded and pictures taken of now that I have a digital camera on me.
What's taking up the drawing time is my major, which happens to be music (concentration on Alto Saxophone... mostly classical, since we no longer have an active jazz band, but I try to work on a little improv and studies now and then). I'm in my school's saxophone quartet, and used to march in the band before both of my knees got arthritis in them. I also play on special occasions at church, but hopefully when I get a little more confident with my improvisation, it'll be more on a regular basis.
Haven't decided what I'm going to do with music when I get out of college yet... I like playing, but everyone keeps stressing "you should teach" and all that jazz. (I may work in the schools and help tutor kids now, but there is absolutely no way you will find me trying to take on the responsibility of teaching. Too much trouble if it's something you really don't want to do in the first place.) I'd rather just play... maybe do lessons on the side, but not as my main career option.
