Why does it take so long to get through school? I really don't like school.....*lol* I hate sitting in those plastic chairs, listening to teachers tell me that I have to do something a certain way.....& then tell me that they have to do this so eventually I can break out & do it my own way. How does that work?....*ugh*
Why don't those apptitude test they give us in High School actually do anything? I could have been done with school years ago had I known that I wasn't exactly cut out for teaching small children....*lol* (I get rather annoyed with them quickly). I can teach older kids & adults much easier.
I'm now going through the Photography program at Sacramento City College & will be transfering to UVU (Utah Valley University) and I keep thinking that I could have been done already had I known that I was better at this, than teaching music. I still might do both but I enjoy photography more than teaching music. Much less stressful....*lol*.
I've made so many friends as well in the photography program vs. the music program. Everyone seems to want the others to succeed & is willing to help. Yeah, we will eventually be competitive as well but it is a good kind of competitive. Not like when I was in the music dept. & people would beat you down & tell you that you would never be any good. And this was coming from the other students! I never made the friends in the music dept that I've made in the photo dept. True, had I been in the dept., 5 years ago, I wouldn't have met some of these people but I wish sometimes that I was done with school.
About Me

- I'm a rather intense individual who loves photography & music. I love to dance. I can't stay away from the water. I love to swim & love the beach. I can't wait to learn how to ride a motorcycle
Don't get discouraged by the fact that you are not done with school. Would you know for a fact that music is not for you if you haven't gone that route before? I switched many majors until I actually found something that I enjoy. I love to do many things and that's okay. That is what makes you a well rounded person. Keep at it. You'll do great!!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's not that music isn't for me.....its just that I get so frustrated with young kids & that's who I was teaching. Maybe if I had been teaching older kids or adults I would have done better. I still might do some music, just not as much as before. I still love my music. It's just different now.
ReplyDeletesorry, misunderstood.
ReplyDeleteI agree, little ones can be difficult to work with. The important thing is do what you love and everything else will fall into place. :)
