Well I have been doing some more art work. My digital camera is in need of repair, and isn't working so I have not been able to do any photography. My course this semester at Valencia are going well. Orlando is a great city, but I just don't think it is where I want to be right now. Even though I planned to go to UCF right here in orlando and major in studio art.
Early this month it hit me. I love art, and graphic design would be a great career choice, after all it has been what I have been planning to do for the last three years. My Fundamentals of Design class (traditional artistic concept course non-digital) at the college I attend, has made me realise I don't think I want to have a career in art, or atleast graphic design. I could not imagine sitting in front of a computer desk all day. Don't get me wrong I am still going to do my art work, but I think I will just keep it has a hobby and maybe make some cash along the way. Once you make art a job, it doesn't seem that fun any more, atleast thats the way I see it. So what will I major in once I finish community college? and where am I going? actually im not so sure.

I have decided to combine my passion for photography with writing and pursue a career in photo-journalism. On December 15th I will take a plane from Orlando international Airport for San Diego. My brother lives north of San Diego in Encinitas. I will spend the Holidy with him and then go North of the city of Los Angeles to Woodland Hills, California to stay with my friend Kurt.
What the catch? .....if I like it (and why wouldn't I?) I am going to stay in California. leaving all my friends in florida to go to the other side of the continent seems so crazy, but I AM CRAZY.
I have a lot of things to consider though, obviously I can't stay with Kurt and his family forever, I'll have to find a job and some where to stay. but I am confident I can do it.
As for continuing my education...I would have to pay out of state rates at Pierce College in Woodland Hills. THATS INSANE.....
or I woudl have to stay and become a calfornia resident, aand not attend school for one year. Giving this my options...I am goign to still take courses at Valencia College.
All online courses nest semester.....so I can finish my Associates of arts Desgree. Then if I stay in California I can become a resident and go on to a university for my last two years of school.
I'm excited but trying not to get ahead of my self.
I might just end up taking a greyhound bus back to Cocoa beach or merritt Island....(here in florida) and end up crashing with friends or family. Either way what ever happens, I will be content.
