When I reached the tender (i.e. Puberty ravaged) age of fourteen, my voice deepened considerably more than the rest of my peers. I noticed that I could also sing much deeper than I'd ever been capable of before. In fact, I'd never even been ABLE to sing before. I'd practiced different genre's before I came to the conclusion that I could truly reach my peak of potential in the loud and vibrating melody of opera. I was so enthralled to have an actual talent that I'd sing everywhere I went.
When I dated my last girlfriend though, she was adamant that I should not sing such nonsense. She said that opera was a dead art form and I would never get anywhere singing 'a dead music style'. She was so forceful that I am now incapable of song in any way. I'd quite literally developed a complex. (It later turned out that she was repeatadly rebuked from chruch, middle school, and highschool choir, and that her doubts were from jealousy).
Have any of you, my fellow Escapists, had a talent quashed from you?

No, not that I'm aware of, then again I'm not even aware of any off my talents so maybe they got quashed before I even realised they were there.

Opera is not dead.

Opera is a great art and you should follow your passion.
Not many people are gifted with the raw talent for such art.

Whilst it's the common Internet Jerkwad thing to say "She's a dumb b*tch *insert flimsy reason here*", I have to say...

She's a Dumb *****

What she meant by "Dead Art Form" is "I am too stupid to understand the huge international reknown for Opera, and how it is one of the longest-lasting forms of classical entertainment, not to mention the most popular and far-reaching"

meh..

OT: I love doodling and whatnot, but Art in school is so un-arty and pathetically stupid F*CK F*cK DAMN IT'S STUPID F*CK STUPID DAMN CRAP (sorry, I literally can't articulate my exasperation for this 'subject')

...it's so F*CKING AWFUL AND STUPID that I have stopped enjoying doing anything remotely arty.
