Tough decisions
So! its been a few days since I last posted on here again, I believe the last time was just after my university interview. Well, truth be told, they got back to me on thursday with some not very good news. I haven't been offered a place on the graphic design course :/ HOWEVER! they have offered me an interview for a degree in advertising and brand management which after a lot of thinking and going over, I have decided that this would be the best career choice for me since my work is similar to the standard of that industry so its not all bad. But this has put me in a really difficult position.
I now have two universities that I love. One offers me the chance to do a combined degree and is close to home, but the other will get me a career in advertising which is what I want more than anything. So now my life is on a total pause because I can't decide which is best for me! I wanna be close enough to my family so I can visit them but I also want this amazing opportunity of working for an advertising agency and this means studying further away from home.
I love my work and I love the whole design process, I've grown so passionate about it over the last two years. Being at college has given me the chance to realise what I really really want with the rest of my life and I'm so grateful I didn't throw it all away as soon as I left school. A lot of people in my year either haven't gone to college or have been irresponsible and dropped out and i'm so glad I stuck at this, because its been the best two years of my life so far and I know that being a uni student will bring another good three years. The chance to get away from my little town and make a good name for myself is being offered to me and I'm not gonna throw it away because of what others around me are telling me.
So yeah, i'm just so confused about what i'm gonna do right now. I'm waiting to hear from Staffordshire and they'll give me another interview date for my advertising course. I really hope they give me an offer because I want this so so badly and i'm so afraid that I'm not gonna get it and then my whole life is gonna be ruined. I've been planning my move to uni for six months now and its within my reach, i can't give up and i'm gonna work really hard for the rest of the school year so i can get really good grades.
I'm also planning my distant future too. When i'm 19, i'm going to be travelling to America to work as part of an advertising agency if i go to staffordshire. This is the opportunity of a lifetime and i'm so so going to accept and travel out there and work. I can hopefully get a secured career at the end of it so its something that I can't miss out on. And at the age of 21, I will be emigrating to someplace in the US and I will be going for good. England is a good place to live but I've grown up here and theres nothing left for me anymore. Its been my dream since i was idk 12/13 and now i can do something about it so I'm gonna commit to it and I will be going out there after i graduate. I have the next 3/4 years of my life planned out now. But i still have to decide which university to go to first. I'm gonna do some serious thinking now and i'm gonna make a proper decision of where i should go. And then i get things properly started and i can begin my planning and applications for accomidation and funding and everything i'm gonna need. This is it for me now and I'm not gonna back down.
So thats whats been going through my head. I hope I can achieve everything in my life and i hope everytihng will go smoothly.
I'll keep posted, peace out guys xoxo.
