Fixing those goals!

For a while I had wanted to go to an art college, JUST for art to avoid any of these sportsy annoying colleges that are where I live...

Until I realized...what can I do with a degree in art? Not much...or nothing really that interesting. I'd rather have a job in Japan as an English teacher, which is why I've decided/realized that I have to go to the same college my brother is going to. Because I like the atmosphere, diversity, and courses they offer better than the schools closer to me. But I'd still major in Art...

I have a few problems with that decision...one, I don't like where I live at all (just gotta suck it up, I guess), and two, I don't really like the art department because it mainly doing the stuff I hate to do like ceramics and printing...ugghhh...printing is soooo boring...TT^TT It's painful AND painfully boring. It's surprising since it IS art, I really have absolutely no interest in it...kinda like architecture, but I at least have SOME bits of interest in it. And lastly, I want to be bragged about and choosing this school would not give me much bragging...I mean, I think my teachers expect I could get into it...but that's another thing I should just suck up...XD

In the long run it'll be helpful! XD I'm also thinking of getting a masters from an actual art college, so I can still focus on the art aspect...but having an option of crappy art job in America or decent English job in Japan....I'm going for the decent English job...as much as I dislike teaching, I think I could teach a language since they're fun~! :D I couldn't teacher English to Americans because I don't know why some people don't understand English, while on the other hand, I can understand what it's like to not understand another language and how to learn from that.

I guess it's not that bad of a decision. Miss Prissy Valedictorian is going there...and I'm pretty sure she wants a really good job and has the intelligence to get a really good job...I call her prissy because she's VERY critical of schools and other people. I mean, so I am, but I don't stay mad all the time about it...XD She just seemed very grumpy...

Sorry for all the talk about what I'M going to do...I guess my reason for saying that stuff is for you guys to think about what you want to do with college, too. What jobs are out there? What jobs are out there that you think you can handle and have a bit of interest in it. I say major in something you want to focus on and minor in something that either compliments it or gives you another job....XD

Not that I know if any of this will work out, but according to my mom, it probably will.

I can write a book any time I want to....which is why I don't ever think very much about writing...which my mom wants me to minor in, but yeah...anybody can write a book...XD

With this post...I say that I must do the things that I plan to do. I must try and finish that application for NSLI-Y (I am DETERMINED to go to Korea...I MUST experience what it is like in another country and understand that language and culture better so I can understand their relations to other countries), work on that manga, finish DA requests (still working on the same one I've been trying to finish for months...I just don't like the goth style...;m;), WRITE THAT STORY! (I haven't done much about it in a while), and study more languages...which I HAVE been doing....but I think I need to stay more on track...

Oh! Lately I've been coming up with setting ideas for more stories. I want to do a 1920's kind of story, with that kind of style, but it could take place in another kind of world; a pirate story (yes, really), but more realistic I guess...not this 'harr harr harr' kind of pirate, but something more into the pirate kind of feel; a Middle Eastern or African or somewhere around that region kind of story...or maybe more around Vietnam...O.o; I dunno, but each time I see stuff from different cultures I want to make a story about it...XD Maybe I should just write a short story...but short stories aren't as fun as stories with chapters. Something about the cliff hangers at the end of each chapter is so funnn~! :D

I want to write a short story in Spanish. I have an idea and a specific character that I'd like to show off...but I need to think about the plot a bit more...and learn how to write more poetically in Spanish.

Oh! I think this is kinda funny...XD I was flipping through channels, looking for any channels that I have in different languages and I found a Spanish channel teaching you Chinese! XD So I learned some Chinese! Like the word for trash...which I've just forgotten...maybe I should've written it down.

And I watched some really boring crafts show in Spanish...it was so boring, telling me things I already know, and it was taped like it some random person was filming a sewing club meeting...O.o; But I found a music channel, which I will be watching to find some musicians that I might like.

I REALLY love this band, though:

I need to download some of their albums~! I love all their songs~! X3 It has a nice lounge feel...:D

I guess I should go do some stuff now...XD I feel I have to post a nice picture of something, though...sorry no sketches (I haven't drawn much in a while...bleh):

Look at that hair man! If I could get my hair like that I would...that is GORGEOUS~!

Okay, bye-bye~! X3
