Good news everyone.

So I want a job in the art feild. But i was frustrated with not being able to get a job dispite my artisitic abilities.

So last week i saw and ad for the Art Institute of Pittsburg and applied.

So i got everything together and am doing their online program for a Bachelors degree in Media Arts and Animation. Classes start today

I sure hope this works out.

I am getting financial aid. So it isn't really costing me much of anything except for bit(more then my lifes worth) of debt that i will have to pay off after school finishes. ANd its all online so i can do it at home and fit it inbetween full time job and family.

Heck you should sign up with me and we could be classmates...aye mate?

One positive thing. I had sumitted my portfolio to them. My admissions director said it was one of the highest scored portfolios he had ever seen.

I needed 7 points to be accepted, I got 18.
