about drawing

I finished my first project.
And I am really suprised that most of the chinese students got high commens from the tutor. I feel happy to be honest. but it realise me that this is a defect of chinese or all asia students. Because of the education systerm, chinses students have to learn the classical drawing technique when they are applying an art or design university, meaning while it limits our creativity. And it will lead chinese students pay too much attention on the drawing technique in the future study.
I felt really proud when the tutors choosing a chinese girl's work finally, however I notice that this is just a begining. The future way is not so easy for me, and all the chinese students.
In china there is a old saying: no one can help you except yourself. To me its a denfinitly truth. Although I am still not used to the independence teaching style in here, I have no choise. Its a competion rather than a 3 year study. The only way to be one of the winner is initiative.
