I'm nearly done with my 1st semester of my 3rd year of college....
And in 2 years time, I have to get a job like everyone else. Get a job, pay the bills, spend the rest of cash for pleasure, blah blah blah.....
Really, I don't really wanna talk about it at the moment. Just thinking about anything 9-5 related is making me sick in the stomach. Not that I want to be a couch potato, I just don't get that comfortable when it comes to finding a career that I'd love & be able to work as if every work day is a holiday. I've read gazillions of articles on "Living Life to the Fullest" and all said: "Do a job you really love". Sadly, I haven't found my perfect niche job yet...
I've been trying to see what I can make out of my photography skills since finding your dream job requires to take advantage of what you love doing & what you're good at the most. My photography ego has come a long way, yet there's still lots and lots to learn as I continue to pursue this hobby. I've also been trying to learn 3D programs, especially E-on's Vue which fascinates me because of it's learning curve like no other. You learn fast with Vue and every render, even if it sucks at first, will make you proud and you'll feel like an expert already. Yes, I've so far been only proud of 2-3 Vue renderings in my 8 months of using it.
My 3rd year start has been a real roller coaster to me. For starters, more groupwork which I didn't fancy so much, but I did manage to befriend more classmates, even tutoring some English to several who struggle at it. One guy in an English business class I'm taking is hopeless at it. I also had a hard time trying to translate articles in the schoolbook. I seem to be good at English, but by instinct over facts. So the translation was never that smooth, but he understood and he got his work done.
I know what my adult life would involve more groupwork, as I'll have to pay the bills & eat to survive. Taking small steps has helped me a bit. Whilst my social skills aren't fully refined, I can do groupwork better than before. So ok, haven't passed the "groupwork" challenge cleanly, but at least, little is better than nothing!
Anyways, I'm forced to take an internship during next year's summer vacation. I'll have to work a month for some graphic design studio or ad agency. Having visited one several months back, it wasn't exactly my cup of tea. Nice place, but it wasn't the best place to work. So okay, it so you can concentrate on work, but for somewhat reason I coudn't make my mind for it. Obiviously, I was given with a wide range of choice of places to apply my internship, so I have a lot of choices to make my mind.
I don't know of how things will turn out should I not recieve a job offer. If I don't have one, then I'll go freelance, or even go study aeronautics...
We'll see...
