What I will do now..

It has not been coming to mind in the past, but recently I have been finding myself more and more often thinking of what I should be doing in the future after I graduate.

My entire life I've been surrounded by an environment with computers, so naturally I feel that I accelerate in that field of knowledge. I've had a lot of time put into working with computers, and have received a large output of experience as a result. Even to this day I'm arriving home from school and I start little computer-based projects on my own time, and I take whatever I can get out of it to improve future work. Regarding my thoughts based on the times well spent working with technology such as this, I thought that I would definitely pursue down the path of these works in university and dive into the field of programming.

Recently in my life, as of grade 8, I developed an interest in music. Basically starting from scratch, I received my first guitar and began teaching myself how to play, using YouTube and popular guitar websites as a common reference. Four years later, I find myself most definitely improved from the times in which I knew nothing; now I know something.

Slowly I opened up my mind and grew a larger variety of musical taste. I started learning how to play piano, and even gained a larger appreciation for classical music, which I thought I would never like.

Starting grade 12 I was stuck between a rock and a hard place. I had a large appreciation for these two areas, and I had no clue as to what I could do. Very recently I looked into UVic courses; it turns out that there is actually a co-op course between music composition and computer engineering. Audio engineering seems like a fantastic idea, working with two things that I love can only result in being a good thing. I can only hope at this point that I can somehow get to where I want to be.
