Hello the entity that is livejournal. It's been a while as always.
My cousin once told me that its important to log your life because it's important to see how you've changed over the years, to remind yourself of the lessons learned along the roads of life I suppose.
I say that I'm no longer letting my father's death bother me, I took my little break after I moved to Jacksonville and still unsure of what I wanted to do I attended a semester at sjrcc with computer science as the goal. The school was bad, not very big, and it just wasn't a town I could get social in. John and Maggie came and visited for my birthday and we went downtown and couldn't find anything to do with the streets empty I believe on a weekend as well. I missed attending both of their birthdays to return the favor which I feel bad about. Mainly because money started becoming tight around that time and it was hard to make the 2 hour drive as often as I was.
After my semester I got 3 A's and a D in psychology mainly a disastrous teacher but I could have countered the bad teacher with a little more hard work. I spent my spring break in Tallahassee and saw lots of old friends I haven't in quite a while, and the social appeal was very intoxicating. I decided to move there and finish up at TCC and transfer to FSU, and did all the tedious arrangements.
The months shortly after this decision I was contemplating on if computer science is what I really wanted to do. Surely it ties into hobbies that I enjoy, but I don't know if I could honestly buckle down and handle the tedium.
When summer started and I was waiting for the move to Tally, I was pounding movies more and more while waiting. The more I thought about it, I realized I enjoyed my video productions classes thoroughly, and I always edited on the side. Movies constantly ripping at my emotion started making me think about the field, and then I found Full Sail University, which is considered "one of the top 5" film schools and recently received university accreditation. I toured the school and was convinced.
I talked with the admissions adviser and a lot of seats were taken in the months after July, so she said If I wanted to come as soon as possible I'd have to do all the student loans and registration in the next 3 weeks. This was very tiresome but I accomplished this and managed to move down.
So Now I'm majoring in Film at Full Sail, about to finish my first month, for those who do not know, Full Sail is a 40 hour a week school where you finish 2 or so classes every month. So it takes some sort of forced transition. Especially getting used to the required Macintosh.
Overall I'm happy with my decision. The teachers are good, the energy of the school is great, and so is the diversity. Creativeness takes heavy recognition at Full Sail.
Being back in my hometown is good too, It was probably the better social decision between tally and here. It reminds me that John was probably my closest friend and the years lost over stupidity in my sheltered life are just years to make up.
Hes been taking me to the downtown dancing scene here with Maggie, which I've done here and there with him, difficult with the 2 hour drive before, but I'm enjoying it thoroughly since its a hobby that can be done often, and a good sweat!
I suppose that is a decent summary of the past 8-9 months or so that I quickly fathomed.
