I might minor in women’s studies.

I’m glad to know I’m not the only one in this boat. This has been a constant struggle throughout my entire college career. I spent two years at a community college trying to find out what my strongest interest was—what career path would be right for me. I still don’t know exactly, but at least I didn’t feel the pressure of a university tuition bill. I’ve taken several types of personality and career tests that the advisors recommend and me and my renaissance self scored evenly across the fields. -__-” I’ve switched my major a total of six times. HOPEFULLY I’m done with all the switching.

But now the even trickier part:

For studio art, I need to pick a concentration. All I know for sure is that I want it to be three dimensional (ie: sculpture, jewelry, ceramics). I’m leaning towards jewelry because I’m really loving metal right now, but clay is so attractive :S
for media studies, I’m still not sure what the career path of that major would be, or how these two majors can work together. I know that these were the best two majors to suit my interests. I know I have to pick a focus for media studies; I haven’t even begun to think about that. BUT if I had to decide now it’d probably be something related to women’s studies, with all my feminist tendencies and what not.

And then there’s the part where I need to actually graduate. O_O

So excited for this semester! (by AveRenee)

This semester I’m determined to have my own radio show, just because I think it’d be fun, something new, and I’ve always loved music. I may do it with some of my friends if they’re still up to it, or I may fly solo. (or both?) Then I realized three things:

I haven’t done a major overhaul to my musical collection and taste since two years ago. I mean, I’ve gotten new stuff and found new people here and there but I used to be so much more into getting into new (to me) bands.
I’d need a name for my show. If the show with my friends works out, it’d be something like “two gays and ave” or “two gays, one girl” or something like that. If I’m on my own, WHAT WILL I CALL IT? no idea.
Also, will I focus on one general genre? will I be repetitive with some of they other shows? What will I play? is the stuff I listen to too old? blah.

I’ve been listening to my last.fm recommendations for the past two hours while I wait for my next class and queue up my other tumblr. It’s helped a bit, as it usually does, with rejuvenating my interest in music and stuff. I guess we’ll see what happens.

Soooo what does this have to do with impressionism? Mark Quinn used his own BLOOD for this. I’m still not sure why my professor brought this up. He talked about an exhibit it was in. Something about shock art, or sensation or something.

I’m in Art History II right now. this is what I’m taking notes on. She looks like she could use another drink. it’s titled “Absinthe” by Degas. Oh, impressionism!

IN SHOCK

Did you know an executive assistant can make over 100K??

I sure didn’t. I guess the secretarial career path ain’t so bad.

That’s not the only shocking thing of the night. I FINALLY delved into the hard drive my friend gave me, which he was kind enough to leave nearly his entire music collection on. He gave it to me over a few months ago. One peak inside and my heart skipped a beat. I….I just don’t know what to do with all this music. 15,000+ songs. Seriously, it’s intimidating looking through all this stuff.

Another shocker? My little brother went on his first date. He’s 14. It’s adorable, young love. I think his twin is a little jealous.

And yet another shock: It’s 12:30 and I have an essay to write, due 8AM tomorr—today.

Actually, that’s not a shock. It’s quite the norm. I’m such a procrastinator it’s not even funny. If it were an olympic sport, I’d win gold every time.
