Before having even any clue what I wanted to do with my life, dance with something that had been a pretty big constant for a pretty long time and although I wasn't entirely the best at it it was still a thought for what I'd like my career path to be. Dance is an amazing way to express yourself and requires an insane amount of technique and dedication but I don't think it's something that I would entirely be able to sustain My Lifestyle with. being surrounded by performers at the school I definitely understand why needing to prepare for graduation as a performer is important but I also understand why people feel the same as design and production Majors as well. even thinking about it now graduating and having to launch myself into the industry is a very scary thought and I'm not sure when or if I'll be ready for digesting that thought
