So long story short, life has been lifing and school has just not been a priority. I missed my registration date for my local CC by about a month now, and now all the A&P classes are full. I'd imagine all the surrounding are the same.
So what would you do? Wait another semester or take them online? Thanks.
I've gotten to know myself at my age and feel like the majority of careers would not suit me. Not that I'd hate them or get bored, but that I literally would not perform well in them.
I have ADHD and am bad with deadlines and organization. Don't trust myself to do critical jobs like nursing, as I'm prone to slipping up on details and in nursing you could literally kill someone if you do. Require a change in scenery day to day and get depressed in an office ( per my time as a Graphic Designer). Enjoy working in team settings but horrible with front facing roles (custumer service/sales). Not good with math or science. And to be frank, as a woman I'm just not going to be joining the trades even if there are more women entering them now.
What I am is very patient, work well with kids (I'm a paraprofessional now), have an arts background. Working with children is the first job I've had that I actually enjoy. It feels like there's a purpose to it. I think being an art teacher seems to be the natural choice, but I'm wondering if there's something else I should consider before I get my teaching credential (already have my Bachelor's in art). Hopefully better paying too...
Any ideas? Thanks.
I've been working on my game off and on for a year now, but planning it in my head for more. I've got a solid plan for the mechanics and art direction. I'm building the vertical slice and still working with 95% default assets. It's common advice in bigger game dev communities to "gray box" your game when prototyping, so I've been trying to put off art for as long as possible. But, it feels like I'm delaying the soul of my game, since it's going to be heavy on unique visuals, like Hylics or Look Outside. I'm an artist, so the art is my strong suit.
Should I put off gameplay for a while and dive deep into my assets or keep going with default until my core mechanics farther along?
I finally took the time to draw all the basic movement animations in every direction. What do you think?
Hello, I've decided to get my single credential in art in California. I already have a BFA, and I want to start working under a full salary as soon as I can. I got accepted to UMass Global for Summer, but didn't start it because I'm not sure if it's wise to take on $35k without fully exploring my options.
The reason it costs so much is because it's a dual credential/Masters program. I would finish in ten months if I really lock in. If I could find an internship in my area, then I could start paying it off while I'm working.
So should I wait to be admitted at a state college program or just knock it out online with UMass?
Hello! I've been a substitute paraprofessional for over a year in Southern California. I have a Bachelors in Fine Art, so I've been thinking of getting my teacher's credential for art. I have some experience (three years) in Graphic Design (hated it).
In the meantime, I've had some life changed recently and this salary isn't cutting it. I also have a respite care job, but since it only pays $18, I don't think adding more clients will be worth the amount of time it takes out my week. I think a higher paying day job, and/or side job, is in order. What I'm struggling with is what I could transition to based on my work experience. Preferably not ABA in the home- I did that for some time, and it was not an experience I'll want to go back to.
I'm also open to other careers. Though I don't think anything can beat the time off teachers get, I'm also a single female and know that even in Southern California, the teacher's pay probably won't allow me to live alone.
But any ideas are welcome, thanks.
