Re-Motivation: MY CAREER

So i decided to write a little journal to kill boredom and some time. Um, for the past month I really didn't know what I wanted to do as a career. I wanted to be an interior designer, but ever since I found out UF didn't offer the type of degree I wanted I've been bit down. Then I found out FSU had agreat interior design program, better than UF and it had the ideal Degree I wanted, so I can enter Graduate School at SCAD. It was a good plan to go there for awhile, then...I decided to research how much I would make as an Interior Designer. It was very discouraging..I really don't wanna make the same wage as my mom.....it was a bit over...but 5 thousand over her yearly salary wasn't enough. So I made up my mind to go to school for Pharmacy...I was soo excited, the only discouraging thing about it was that it would take me like 4 years at a university to get my PharmD but i thought i could pay it off with the large amount of salary I would be making annually.


SO that was all good for a week.....Only a week. I had change my mind again after a very depressing train trip to Orlando about 2 weeks ago. I was about to get on the train and i saw this girl get off the train with a SCAD hoody on, and it was all pretty and the letters were outline in glitter. My eyes literally immediately filled up with tears, I didn't know why i was crying at first. Well the tears did stop about time i got on the train, but where i sat made them worse. I WAS SURROUNDED BY SCAD STUDENTS ON THE TRAIN. I was tearful eyed the entire train ride.


I thought really hard and deeply as to why i was so emotional, then i realize the obvious I still wanted to go to SCAD and be an Interior Designer no matter how much i tell myself otherwise. I believe that train ride was an epiphany, i thought it was odd that right after i wanted to change my career that whole event happen. You all may say it was a coincedence, but i think it was a sign from god, that i really won't be happy if i do something i didn't really wanted to do. Which was true...i really didn't wanna be a pharmacist, i was just tellin myself that i wanted to but deep in my heart i wanted to go to an art school. I saw other art schools before I knew about SCAD but i never got excited when i saw them. When i saw SCAD that was a different story, I started to believe in "love at first site" because of SCAD, because i literally fell in love with that school. It was the perfect art school!


I did get accepted to SCAD awhile ago, but the reason i didn't go because of funds, but Community college is another chance to make up what i didn't do in High School. It will be a lot easier to get a nice GPA and a scholarship, I'm a pro when it comes to school, i was just lazy in high school. I am acing all my classes, and that's not with all my effort. From now on I will be putting in all my effort to get things done. I will be more active in extracurricular activities, and try to improve as much as i can. I want all the free money i can get, and all i have to do is work for it, because i deserve it. I am more determine than ever to go to SCAD, and getting scholarships is my #1 Priority.
