So I've been pressing along on the new job path, craving the joys of a day shift and a social life, and I do think that it's the right route to take, the "grown up" route to take for sure.
But there is a huge part of me that is starving for a creative environment. I think I really want to go to art school. I mean really. And here are some reasons why:
I want to be around people who enjoy arguing the pros and cons of the Pepsi redesign, or which font reigns supreme.
I want to learn from people who know more than I do, and receive praise from professors for my "stunning natural aesthetic."
I want to wear something so trendy it's almost ugly, and get looks of approval instead of scorn from my classmates.
I want to meet some fabulously attractive, complex, and creative guy, with whom I have boatloads in common and fall madly in love.
I want to build a portfolio that is so amazing, design firms will beg for me to join their team, and I'll never not get an interview for a graphic design job again.
But is this really what art school is like? Or have I been duped by Hollywood's idealism? If someone out there knows, please, let me know.
Living my life, one happy accident at a time.

- The more I look at life, the more I try to figure it out and control it, the more I figure out that you can't. So this blog is not to relay wisdom or share knowledge. It's to talk out the hard stuff, acknowledge all that is wonderful in my life, and maybe, just maybe, make some sense of it all. (Hey, a girl can dream can't she?)
