why


               Why, why, why, why, why, who what when where and why. Why am I doing this anyway, why did I decide to become a media arts major, why do I like to sit and draw, why on earth do I like to create stupid slash funny things on a computer for some quick laughs or possibly a pay check. In many ways it’s very simple and others it’s very long and complicated. It’s really hard to say sometimes but others I enjoy telling the story of how I became a media arts major in the first place.
                When I came to school I started out as a civil engineering major, ended up hating all the math then decided to switch to pharmacy. I could keep up with the work and all, but I just didn’t enjoy the major at all and truly didn’t know what to do. But one awesome day, my friend had a video assignment due for some crazy class, and he knew I played around with stuff like that sometimes and he asked me to help him. We ended up making an awesome video and he got an A on his project. Then he suggested to me that I should do this for a living, and I took his advice and I’ve been very happy ever since.
                It’s weird sometimes, all the work we have to do as media guys and girls. But 99% of the time I do not feel like I’m doing work at all, I’m usually having a great time working on these projects making it fun in the process and the work part of it disappears and I just love what I do. I know it’s weird to put it that way but it’s cool in my mind. I know I will finish growing up doing what I love and I will always be happy in this life choice of mine. I enjoy media and I always will. I’ve always been able to draw well as a kid and now I finally get to use it for something practical, and get paid while I do it. One day I will get to thank my teachers for helping grow in my subject but I know there will always be more to learn, since new things come out every day. Hopefully I will get to make something that makes kids smile and adults laugh in the process and have my name in the credits being proud of what I had accomplished.
