Report RSS High School, And Some Other Thoughts

Posted by on

First day of high school went pretty god damn well. Saw a lot of friends, got to see my teachers and my classes. Time to get shit rolling, and to get serious. I've got a lot of work to do this year.

Its good to be back at school. Work on my mod is also going well. Recruited four new mappers, and we're assigning work to each of them. At this rate, a 2012 release is a strong possibility I hope to accomplish.

I've written a script for the first episode of "On The Western Front" my World War II machinima comedy series that will be premiering in the future. Work is slow as I have a lot on my plate, but it continues to progress.

I am also starting to think more and more of my education. My ultimate goal is to graduate high school with outstanding grades, and go to the University of California - Los Angeles and major in Film Production. I wish to learn the ways of directing, editing, and learning how to create and manipulate my visions and other people's works onto the big screen. The trick is paying the tuition getting accepted. Tuition for UCLA is close to $15,000 a year, and for me to take the core classes as well as my major, that's a minimum of four years. $60,000, not to mention living costs as well as side expenses can add up quickly, and I wouldn't be looking forward to being in debt and having to pay all of that back.

One thought of mine is to join the United States Marine Corps and take up an Officer or Marine Sniper position. I have always been a war and gun enthusiast, and almost all my life has it been a thought of mine to be a soldier. With the military paying for my education, and I fulfill one of my many dreams of being in the military, I don't see a better opportunity. Although this is all a ways off from my final decision, I know that I being trained to kill and fighting in exchange for so many more doors to be opened to fulfilling my life dreams, it is the perfect set of events that can unfold.
