quote of the day

checking out the top paying degrees with their starting salaries on Fastweb.com, icame across the quote,"you should never choose a major just for the money. If you don’t enjoy the work, then all that money will never equal the dissatisfaction you have for your job."
and irealize that is so true.

DONT GET A DEGREE IN SOMETHING JUST FOR THE MONEY. MAKE YOUR JOB YOUR HOBBY; SOMETHING YOU DO FOR FUN.

j u s t doing research | THOUGHT2SELF

thought to s e l f -
American Apparel. an inspiration?... hmmm.. like the company. not so much the main owner and how he does things though. I like his different outlook on things. FREEDOM is what I want to base my company [when I get to that stage] on. but not all freedom. have fun.. but not T O O much fun.. or have T O O much fun.. just in the right way and still get business taken care of.

Oakleys are a hot trend these days, but also many other shades that resemble the Wayfarers from " the old days," as my teacher said. But anyways, these are pretty hot and the bag is dope too.

FIDM | The Future

I'm so ready to go to FIDM. Ever since they came to my school, I've been doing research on what career path I'm choosing to follow and stuff like that. Even though it's going to be awhile [2011], I think I can manage. Path I'm choosing to follow is Apparel Manufacturing Management and then Business Management. When I get out, I plan on working for a company for a yr. or 2 overseeing certain projects and so forth and then I plan on creating my own clothing line. I'm so ready. I hear it's a LOT of work, but I think I can handle it.
