By the end of this month I will be leaving my home and living with a friend. This isn’t as bad as it sounds. Because from this point on I will not only be searching for a job in my field, but a job which I can put my skills to use. I guess I’m just being a bit restless, I haven’t really had a great vacation and I have one more week to go. Plus I found out I have one more canvas left, and I’m going to paint something to close a horrible chapter of my life.
I must admit I have been a bit disorganize for the past 3 months, but that’s because of the fact I was getting ready to end a huge chapter. Now once I paint this last canvas I can finally live my past behind me. I do have a great future ahead of me. Not only am I a creator but also somehow a business personnel.
I see myself in 5 years not only creating works of art but also starting a great business. My dream is to become a business owner, but I have a lot of work ahead of me. Funny thing is I almost went to an all business related school with one art program, but I went to an all art school (the Art Institute of NYC) to study Graphic Design. That school didn’t have much of a business, well until you’re finishing.
I choose an art school for the connections I could make, and I could learn business on my own. I am a self learner, so I would pick up things easy. Also I know my way around the internet to learn how to look for business and legal matter information. Plus I love books and there’s a NY Public Library branch just for business.
Maybe business owner is a bit out there for 5 years, at least have a company by 20 years. I could just freelance, and do whatever I want. I am a writer, artists, designer, and a thinker. That reminds me of why I started this blog in the first place. It was to meet new people and share ideas. But now I see it as much more than something so simple. I love to use my hands to tell a story, to create. I’m not so good at saying what I’m thinking, unless I’m in deep conversation with someone – which doesn’t happen as often. If I was to show you by the school system way of showing how smart a person is I’m more smarter in math than in literature, and yet I love to write and analyze.
But from people who know me they come to see me as a very smart person, and for some reason I don’t believe it’s true. Now my niece she has the mind of a scientist and she’s 13, she use to want to be one but now she’s following in her dream of art. We could take for hours on end about topics like planets and how things work, and at the same time we both enjoy creating something. I found my passion in poetry in 2nd grade, because it was the only way I was able to release myself of pain and sadness. My niece is more vocal with her thoughts.
I am quit glad for this, because I’m somewhat of her guide in art but that’s because I understand it a little more than her and she somewhat helps me vocalize myself when it comes to explaining what I’m trying to say. We all have gifts and we all are gathers of knowledge which is very interesting. If all goes while I might go from Graphic Designer to Software Designer.
