Its time

I've decided its time for me to get off my lazy butt and get back into school and stick to it. I'm going back for a bachelors degree in Graphic Arts/Visual Media and while I know I will have to take out some loans for this program (I will need some special software and probably a macbook and a quality camera) even though I will be going to a local state University, I know it will be worth it in the end. Once I graduate I will be moving back to the East Coast, most likely to New York City, where I will work as a Graphic Designer/Visual Media Editor during the day and I will freelance and work a part time job as a server or a bartender to pay off my student loans asap and to build up my savings. Im looking forward to the next few years as they will be filled with interesting classes, an internship somewhere during the summer hopefully out of state (I've already seen a couple of possibilities but its still a few summers away) and then once I graduate, Im moving back to the East Coast and will be living in the City that never sleeps :) I will be able to get rid of most of my stuff and sell my car as you dont need a car in NYC.

Now I just need to book an appointment with my Universities guidance counselor to see what I need to do to get enrolled again and then figure out financial aid, class schedules, etc...

On another note, I started a photography blog as part of my portfolio that I will need for when I graduate and look for a professional job. Check it out at davidbriscophotography.blogspot.com
