I include long extended entries in my journal, or just drawings I have made, plus some random things. Enter best when you are willing to read long philosophical entries.
College & University
Senior year already, I am exited to get into a serious enviorment to study what interests me; The enviorment, art, computers, maybe some robotics to make fun toys. It will be awsome. After so many deceptions on highschool life to my dad and teacher (Mr. Ruchman, his an awsome AP english teacher), they tell me that when I get into college I will love it....the suspense is building up and it's dreans turning into reality.

So far Berkeley isn't a choice since its far and too expensive. I've heard many good things about that university, they specialize in the enviorment so it would parallel with my beleifs. Yet, the only way I know I could go to Berkeley is if I get a scholarship. Thus I must work hard to find one!

So far the plan is to research the art deparments in UCSD(and each branch of their six colleges....more work but all worth it), and check long beach. Theres some family friends who teach there so I'll get more of an insight from them and the students. Also I am suppose to check with an uncle whose kids graduated from Berkeley for more in-deep info.

I already feel that my carrer is building up...I want to do so many things to benefit different areas. I am content with this ongoing burning passion within.

    I already have a plan, I am going to major in marketing then have a minor in art. That's the basic plan I discussed with my dad. Marketing and art will come in hand, since even if I am a super great artist it doesn't mean I will know how to sell my art. So there comes marketing in hand, it will be a life saver.

    I already read some articles where such occasions is common among artists, I sure do not wish top be part of that group.

    Aside form this, I am very interested in other areas such as enviormental scien, animal biology/ anatomy, medicin through plants (i think its called bonotemy), computer science, and robotics, history, etc. So many things to study for, yet I must set them in order.

    You might want to consider starting at a community college like MiraCosta or Palomar, getting good grades, scoring a scholarship, and then heading where you really want.

    It all depends on the scholaships I can get. Yet, My father is taking first consideration to enroll me for community college to fufill all my general education first.

    "It would be wasting alot of money to take the class where somewhere else is cheaper" Father says.

    Makes a lot of sence of course. SO far the plan is to choose a collge from UCSD and fill up the G.E. requirements for that college during my second semester in highschool and summer, so I may take more classes that are to my liking.

    UCSD's campus is humongus! I just spent today exploring the campus and I got lost in Muir's college for about an hour until my stubborness wore off and ask for help to the nearest person. I asked a teacher at the end, well he looked like one, and he got me a map. AT the end I found my way back with the map and learned an important lesson.

    Maps are esential in universities.
