what the hell are you guys gonna do with your lives

[Kalahari Inkantation]

i honestly have no idea

I love law, I love science, hopefully I'll get a career in one of the two fields. maybe a lawyer or something
i just want a job that i can actually enjoy
But for now I'll just continue school and see where that leads.

CSI?

[Samus Aran]

Are you actually good?

Supposedly. I don't think I'm a very good critic of my own work, so I can't say for sure. I can at least take pride in a few pieces I've done that other people have liked as well.

But you know, even if I'm not good, I don't think I'll ever really stop doing it. It's quite enjoyable.

i'm going to be a doctor

i win

[Veal]

you're probably going to end up aborting babies.

[Veal]

oh yeah, do you have scholarships and a bed made out of diamond-encrusted gold to pay for all of that?

um student loans and a dad who is also a doctor and my uncle's a doctor, and my cousin's studying premedicine so he's also becoming a doctor

i didn't think anyone here was pitiful enough to actually waste their life going to that shit, but you just proved me wrong

I wouldn't say art school does anything in particular for artistic vision since it's not something you can teach or learn, but as far as technical skills go it's just as useful (if not more) than a major in say psychology or any number of other relatively useless things... if, of course, your interests are art, which is not a bad thing.

exactly how I feel about mediums I've done work in

loans is not money. and wow with all those doctor friends you don't even need to go to college.

also art school = connections, internships, job placement, etc. and there is plenty you can learn technically. the difference between freshman and even sophomore students' quality of work is vast and by senior year (at the latest) they're ready for the real world. and the number of success stories is... up there. it's like 95% of seniors had jobs when they graduated. and some of our graduates went on to teach, head huge corporations art departments, etc. it's not like they all become starving artists, especially not graphic designers. although bassir and lawlz are just trying to get a rouse out of me and slim is trying to arouse me so i don't know why i'm explaining this all for them.

CSI?

meh
somebody suggested being a forensic scientist a few days ago, but i don't think it's for me
I'm interested in both law and science, but I'm not sure I'd want them both combined that way.

[Veal]

you should track down carmen sandiego.

i mean where in the world is she?

[Slim]

... slim is trying to arouse me ...

Finally you understand.

I don't care what you do, as long as you follow your heart. <3

yes, all true. I'd go to an art school if there was a larger one than MCAD here and wasn't lazy and wasn't most likely going to the U of Mn, although I'll probably still major in art there, or English
