I ended up somewhat sidetracked... funny how that happens.

Original plan was Full Sail in 2006, and Pixar by 2008.

I graduate in March with my assoc. and am moving to Atlanta this week. Once there I will be working... probably with a media corp. or in high tech industry.
Since I'll be in Atlanta instead of Flordia, I'm debating whether to take the time to go to Orlando, or just find an equivilant in media arts and production there...

Either way, the goal is still Pixar by 2008. rock:

Afterthoughts...

Most of you guys are in High School, and I personally had a very difficult time after high school, trying to figure out which direction to go, what I wanted to do, ect.

. If you have never served in the armed forces... consider it. It is one of the most memorable and self-empowering experiances a free man can have. It will change your life, your outlook on the world, and give you an excellent jump-off point to any career you persue afterwards.

. College, do it. I am not from a wealthy familly, I have paid my own way. If you are also not sure how you will be able to pay for school, trust me it can be done with a bit of determination and some clever financing. Vertran status helps big too!

. Distance learning owns. I have two kids, a job, and a great many other responsibillities. I don't have time to go down and listen to a professor preach, so I utilize a distance learning program. This means that I turn on my computer, sign in and do assignments, discussion boards, and watch interactive learning videos from my office. No mid-terms, No huge classes, No driving to class.
The best part of this is I do 2 classes every 5 weeks. That means I earn a 2 year degree in 12 months! Most of the best colleges in the country now offer some kind of distance learning, it is fully accredited and respected.

My sister-in-law went to Full Sail and 2+ years later, she is still working a crappy job hooking up VCRs in a Hyatt. $25,000 later, she learned that it's really about who you know, not what you know. I know they claim to have a good job placement track record, however, what they don't tell you is that very few people move on, at least immediately, to "career" type jobs.
