i havent post in awhile.
but im back!
so this weekend i went to the Art Institute open house. and saw brandon jose. which was pretty cool.
anyway i went to the advertising and graphic design area and the Academic Director of that area talked to us, really cool guy, and ive been thinking lately, do i want to do graphic design? they dont even really make that much money, but besides money, is it what i want to do? working at the printshop gave me a new perspective on it. even though im doing mainly shit work. and im thrown into projects that i dont personally have the knowledge to even do, its a big drag. and lately ive been thinking, is this what i want to do with my life? but what is the difference between advertising, and graphic design, one of the first questions he asked us if we knew, during the open house, and listening to him speak i kinda felt better about it. advertising is the brain power basically, is pretty much 2/3 business stuff, and 1/3 graphic design. after the academic director spoke to us, and we were dismissed i stuck around to talk to him, and was like. im still stuck, id like to do both, advertising and graphic design, and he said that was good, and im pretty much like him. but where did i see myself in 10 years. who would answer that question flipping burgers? lol. i said a boss. an he told me advertising. so there you have it. this is basically me rambling on telling specific points that made me want to do this. so if i forget ill have this to remind me.

I saw Brandon at the Chandler Mall yesterday, we talked about football a little and also some about his distaste for the 'art institute'.
Good luck with the whole design/advertisment thing. Isn't it a bummer that right now you can't really say "I have my whole life to figure this out." This is like the end of the beginning of figuing stuff out. You have to pretty much pick now or else things will get really messy. It's such a drag.
you dont have to pick now now brio!!!! know that.....its not too late until you make it too late...... your not even 20 yet dude! im 24.... and no i didnt want to be a printer.... and no i dont want to be a printer..... i want to go to school too!!! be a motorcycle mechanic or something.... its just hard working that out when i have the band and a 50 hour a week job.... a wife and 2 kids!!!!! but its not too late.... i just put it on hold..... when you know what you want to do, youll do it!!!! and when you do it its because it is when you were suppossed to do it.... dont feel pressured about shit bro.. .. your still young..... hell im 5 years older and still young.... still in the same position you are.... just diffrent circumstances..... and i dont think its too late for me.... take your time.... youll know....
