I got an 800 page book from AoAU today. You would think it'd have lots of information about the school and the programs and dorming about it in it...wrong. It's like all pictures. But, after lots of thinking, I've decided I don't want to go to AoAU anymore anyway. It's all the way out in California and I just don't think I'm ready to make that big of a move. I mean, I do want my freedom and all, but I don't want to be that far away from my family. Because California is definately not Florida, but it's a big fucking move!
So I've been thinking about Art Institute for a while, namely the Pittsburg branch. A lot of people have told me that it's like...the creme de la creme of the AI schools. Plus it's one of the schools that has the Media Arts & Animation program and not all the branches have it.
Also going to PA would be quite awesome. I have two online friends that I've been talking and rping with for about over a year and they live in Pittsburg. So that'd be pretty cool.
And yeah, I know..."Mallory wants to be a tattoo artist." But who's to say I'll make it big? Who's to say that I'm going to make it at all? College and degrees are my saftey net. Take Allen for example. He's got a bunch of degrees, one of them being an AA in Commercial arts. So I just want to be smart and be safe. Plus, some think college art degrees will even help in tattooing.
I'm sooooo sick. I got that freaking cold thats going around...but I know that right now it's just the tip of the iceberg. And while everyone else has gotten over it quickly, I bet it's going to be quite a while. But haha, the grandparents come home tomorrow, and I shall have grams take care of me.
