I changed my major =)
« on: September 20, 2010, 04:05:53 pm »
I am so very happy right now and wanted to share =)

I've spent the past two years of college going to school part time for a Bachelors in Media Arts and Animation. Well, after I was diagnosed I really began to rethink my life. I realized then, that I wasn't happy with the field of animation. I often felt uncomfortable and out of place.

Over the last few months though I've developed a passion for decorating, and so I put an appeal in to my college to change my major to Interior Design and i got approved!! =) I'm so excited.

That's good news, baby girl.  You wouldn't want to be stuck in a field that didn't make you truly happy.  Some times it takes a crappy event like HIV for us to reassess life's priorities.  I am seriously considering the possibility of going back to my unfinished doctorate as I am finding the world of business to be not so very.

Good luck with the change. Kick ass ;)
