Year after year, my whole life's a wreck

[Zephyr of Darkness]

As odd as you might see it, I'm being paid like a graduate. DMX can tell you; that's a good salary in Argentina and the timetables are confortable. I work from 9 to (12 to 14) and sometimes get asked to do extra turns during the afternoons (but I'm not gonna anymore). The only way to earn more in my profession is working independently.
*sits back* Ahhhh, I deserve my pain.... I followed this career thinking I could work little and earn a lot so I could do what I really like... *dreamy look* I should have started doing what I really like.....

In your free time, you could attempt to see what your water color pictures would sell for (the generic non-Beelzemon ones). Maybe you could make a name for yourself. That's what I plan to do with my poetry.

Indeed, that was my plan from the beginning, but I think I should have dedicated full time to it. But....Argentina is not the US. There ARE some famous and rich Argentine artists, but they've all made their money and fame abroad.
And I'm sure you can make a name for yourself. You have great creativity and live in a favorable place.
