become an architect

As I begin to reach the final few months of school I’m organising my uni applications. I’m putting my first five choices in architecture :D ; for my first one I have to complete a practical application task and an interview if I hopefully get through the application. Anyway, I’m feeling pretty good about it all! I have been finding I get a few contacts from chatting with adults If I’m out for dinner and stuff – something I had never cared about before… I must be getting old :S!

It was a dream of mine as a very young girl, and somewhere along the way I lost my mind and decided it was a better idea to follow social conventions and be sheep (aka study biology…). I recently rediscovered my brain and am now trying to get back on track. Next year, I’m conquering KTH!!

I am blessed as an artist with the mental capacity of technicality required of architects. So, I’m headed there. I’m going to school and working in the field.

...and I start college at UTA, majoring in Architecture. I couldn’t be more excited! :)

I’ve been visiting universities for their open day these last few weekends and getting a feel for what the courses are like. I’m quite excited by the folios I saw and the sort of environments there are to work in. Anyway, something good to look forward to!

i want to become an architect just like my aunt who i really look up to and admire. i guess i just have to wait until i’m old enough to go further. i am not sure what i can do now.

...

been a lowlife long enough? add creative input into the construction trades through architecture. Labor no longer … a cushiony desk job awaits.
me work? No! Ill be an Architect! and pictures will be my fresh wholesome breads and organic butter.
Ahh.. cups of fair trades lattes and million dollar plans on my back lit table thing as I thrill all with my conceptualized schematics.
perhaps I’ll design artists lofts or sky scrapers or trains bridges. Maybe ill be respected and given good treatment by the cable company or the teller at that bank will flirt more with me, maybe Ill write a book.

Im finally graduating next month!

i will finish my mechanical engineering studies and i am really down, cause i dont feel any motivated… i like to design things, but, that career doesnt make me happy… i think architecture would be a great career for me, i am much more creative than analytic. Anyone in a similar situation?
