  I feel like the selection tool will be the easiest to work with because it is somewhat similar to the pen tool in Illustrator, which I became pretty efficient at using. I think I am most interested in figuring out how to alter the lighting of an image (shadow, highlights, etc.) because that seems really difficult but also an essential tool to creating believable photo edits. I have heard a lot about Photoshop's AI features so I decided to watch a tutorial on it. I am very impressed with how advanced the AI is on Photoshop and I am interested to think of ways to use it in the future.

I am not sure where I want to live yet in the future, but I want to live somewhere sunny. If you don’t get a career in film, you should go into marketing because I feel like you would be good at it. When you have your own place, you should get a dachshund. Even though it will most likely not be your career, you should still take time to draw and paint when you get the chance. If you have fallen out of the routine, you should be working out every day. Even though it may seem hard to fit the gym into a busy schedule, it’s an important part of life and you shouldn’t neglect it. You should also continue to spend time boxing and doing Jiu Jitsu since it is a good way to stay healthy and relieve ...
