It's about college.
He's transferring to Texas A&M University with a major in Aerospace Engineering. Without a doubt, TAMU is going to accept him. He is one who studies relentlessly and has got at least 3.5 GPA to show for it. He wants to be a pilot or the kind that designs aircrafts of some sort - Boeing, he thought. And his study in the prestigious school will begin Spring 2011. Seeing eachother will be a great challenge. Good thing College Station, TX is only a couple hours away.
What about me? Still undecided. I tried looking at the many degree programs in the TAMU website and thought, "Wow...nevermind" As much as I hate to transfer to the local universities in the area around here, I have to resort to it. I need to find a new home away from home. My indecisivness in a major has caused me to fall back in what you'd call a "degree plan". I will have my Associates Degree by the end of the summer this year, but what could you really do with an Associates?
For many semesters, I've struggled between wanting to be a chef, journalist or a filmmaker. I blew off many classes on those. Judging from the job opportunities I just listed, you may think of me as the "creative" type. I have once aspired to become a writer, since writing is my forte, but don't judge my writing abilities on this very blog - this is informal. This semester, I have come up to a new calling no one would really expect of me - I want to major in chemistry. I learned that choosing a very broad major will support you a great deal on the long run. There's so many job opportunities for that major alone. The creativity potential that I have is only something I enjoy doing. It's a hobby. Creativity has no limit, which is considered good for some, but I want to do something far out of the context. I learned that I could still spare time of creativity while I am at work doing my career. Recently, I have been interested in working for the EPA. The environment concerns me a lot and I would like to explore more about the science behind Mother Nature and gain more practical experience on it.Enough about me now.
I can only hope the best between me and David, though he said it can't be that bad. It concerns me a lot that we may be going to different universities for at least 2 years. He said that if he doesn't make it to TAMU, he will be going to UTD or UNT, but I don't want to wish him an unacceptance to the school he planned to go to in order to go to a school I planned on going. That would be harsh! I just got to think that TAMU is only around 3 1/2 hours away from where I live - gotta think positive!
Oh well, only time will tell, but I can only wish it was simpler.

Kiki, to become a film-maker you must first study the great masterpieces of world cinema: "BARRY LYNDON" (1975), "VIDEODROME" (1982), and "COME AND SEE" (1985). All films that were admittedly made before you were born and yet they still sum up what film making at its brilliant best is all about, if you make films like those you might become one of the greatest film-makers of all time.
Kiki, jimmie is right, "BARRY LYNDON" is indeed the greatest film ever made as long as you dont expect to be entertained by it when you watch it. The reason its the greatest film of all time is that every frame of the film is like a stunningly beautiful painting that you might see in an art gallery (and all achieved without CGI) it is an amazing accomplishment, but as i said dont expect much actual entertainment value (at least not in the accepted sense, ve-zar-ve "ROBOCOP", "2012", "AVATAR" etc, etc.).
What is?, you bloody silly sod!!!.
