I'd make a horrible rock star, but I'd love it!
I'm a full time student now. When I lived in Los Angeles, I thought I wanted a career in film, but I ended up disliking a lot of it (I worked a little as a production assistant on a low budget thriller), and I'm just now going after a dream I've always had which is to get a Masters in Library Science (big difference, right?), but after I turned 30 I thought I was too old for school (and I foolishly let some people encourage the idea as well), so I'm getting a rather late start. I am hoping to get a Bachelors in some film or history related subject and move into my masters with a concentration in archiving so I can work in preservation. It's a big dream of mine, but the ultimate dream is to become a well known historian on the made for tv movie genre, and this is a step in that direction, but I'm fine if that doesn't happen either.
That said, aside from being a full time writer (journalist, magazine writer or editor of some sort), I can't imagine myself anywhere else. I'm also a straight A student, 2 years counting, and I just got invited into a national honors society.
And yesterday, I got a letter of recommendation from my teacher because I moved and I'm applying to a couple of schools here. She said I was a fantastic student! I love being so good at it!
