Discovery

As a creative person I have always been into the arts. I always thought that my passion for fine arts and visual arts was enough for me. I only have one year left of school until I have my Associates Degree in Graphic Design with a specialization in Advertising. I don't know that advertising was ever exactly my forte. I was never really an advertising or sales personality, but have worked in customer service so I understand what it means to satisfy the customer. Then, well the design aspect I'm sure you can understand. Ultimately, Graphic Design sounds perfect for me, right? Well yes, but what if I was the writer, as well?
I think creative writing has always been a hidden talent of mine. Until just recently I had no idea that it actually existed in the field I was in, but someone has to write the design of the ad. So now, I am interested in what that has to offer for me and am wondering if I should stick around to find out. The downside of things is that I would be stuck where I am possibly for another two or more years. I could possibly transfer to a four-year university, then finish my major in Graphic Design, and minor in Copy writing. After starting this summer class with Mrs. Susan Fay, I had no idea how much I would enjoy writing ads. However, I am just taken away by it. I have never been so excited about going to class. It seems that I would be more valuable in my industry if I could in fact write the commercials and ads and design them as well. I would be the package deal.
Yes, I think I have found something that has re-connected my creative wires!
I believe this is the birth of a new passion!
