Where do I start?…I have an idea of being something great…but what is it? I want to be so much. Can one person do so many things. First, I want to be an entrepreneur, that’s the easy part. What kind of entrepreneur? My interest consist of music and art. I like to combine my interest to make something more satisfying. What do you get when you combine music and art? A lot of stuff I care not to elaborate on. My first dream/goal was to be a music producer. If I told my family that, I would’ve not had any support in that idea.  So, only to move on to something that they will get behind me with, I decided to be a computer engineer. I started college as an engineer and realized that this isn’t exactly what I want to do permanantly because I gained new interest. I took my school file and stepped over to the world of business. I mean I do want to be an entrepreneur, so what am I waiting for?

I really got into art in 2005 and it started out as me exploring art as a subject. Now I’m exploring art as a career. There are so many things that can be done with art these days. I find every aspect so intriguing and it’s so hard to come to a particular area of study I want to stay in or even start in. I find motion graphics and film the highlight of my interests. I do say it is where I want to be eventually, but for now I have to start small with basic things. As ideas of some people, if I’m going to study art, I think I should study at an art school. It’s only right that I do myself justice. If anyone is to study in something that is as intense as art they should do the same. If I’m going to be a lawyer I would study at Harvard if I could. So now my goal is to be an artist, now combining business and art. Music is something I’m not worried about because I know there will be a right time for it. Besides, the music industry is already overcrowded.

Just as I suspected, my family was not supportive of the idea of me being an artist. I feel like they think that there isn’t enough room in the world for my creative ability. They say I should get an education in something that will guarantee a good paying job when I graduate. I say I want to do something I enjoy even if I hypothetical didn’t get paid for it. If you find something you enjoy, the money will come to you much easier. I’m not really interested in working for someone else for the rest of my life anyway.
