When I was applying for colleges, I got accepted at Virginia Tech as an art major. And I got accepted at the school I went to as a music major. I should have gone with art there as well.
It was apparent by Theory II that I had no business in the music department, so I sort of floundered with majors and ended up with a Speech degree because it was the closest I could get to journalism. But it wasn't close enough to get me a job. It did eventually help me get to politics and gubmint...sigh...
So, I want to mesh the writing and art together and have music and drama on the side. And I want someone to pay me a six figger income to do it.
And I want to live at the beach.
And that's all I want. And nothing more.
Except this ashtray...

Lots of us have ended up with lives a lot different than we thought when we were jen's age and so sure what we were gonna do... through choices, dead ends and a few compromises, we pick up a few things and sometimes we drop a few things along the way.
I went to school to fly airplanes. And I was good at it too... but I ended up quite a ways down a different path and had to decide to keep going or head back. I am really glad I learned to fly, sorry it cost my parents so much money, and I still have the hope that I can get and stay current enough one day to just have a really cool hobby. But I can't picture myself in the life I planned, as an airline pilot. I'm different now.
Heh. I did two years as a music major at a community college before going to UofA. In the first sememster of Music Theory, there were a couple dozen students. By the end of the fourth semester, there two of us left in the program. The rest either decided they were not suited for it, or came to the realization that music is not a 'gimme' degree - it actually takes hard work and study.
