Well, ever wonder why Bill Gates quit schooling?

I don’t recommend quitting school if you’re not as sure of what you want to do in your life than he was, though.

Anyway, I’ve always been one who prided herself for doing things she’s passionate about. If I don’t like it, I probably wouldn’t do it, come hell and high water. That’s why despite the fact that I can be earning something right now just by working in a call center part-time, I’m here stuck inside the house doing…well, nothing. Sometimes I think I just lack the patience and perseverance to do well, but most of the time it really just boils down to one thing: passion.

Considering that IT is the future of broadcast media, I think you’ve simply positioned yourself to be in the best of both worlds — at least hindi ka ignorant and/or intimated ng new technology, and you know how those things work and how to best use it for your “true love” (e.g. broadcast media).

Ganyan din ang napapansin kong ginagawa ng mga true-blue (no pun intended) artists who need to make a living — many traditionally trained fine arts graduates eventually take up web design and animation, which become their bread and butter that allows them to pursue their more esoteric artistic tastes. And writers have taken up blogging.

Goodluck!

I’m a Computer Science major but Broadcast Communication was my first choice and I’m really passionate with performing arts and film making. After graduation, I will try out software development or the IT industry but I know it won’t end there. Maybe after 5 years, I’ll shift to the media industry where I know I’ll excel and find fulfillment. I’m sure my background and knowledge in Computer Science will help. It’s just a matter of how you use all your skills to reach a goal and realize a dream.
