    *i rant about how i dont excel at anything and my hidden abilities, ohnoes!*

    everything i've done in life i've been able to do. whether it be learning how to ski w/o lessons, cook, learn a sport, anything. the problem is i'm just average at it. i haven't found something that i'm good at in life. something i can make into a career and feel good about myself because i'm the best at it. all these things im "average" at, i hate it because i've never been the "best" at any of them. i feel like because i dont excel at something i won't be making a lot of money in the future career wise. maybe i just haven't found "it" yet.

    one thing that's been hiding deep down is my ability of design! i've always had that "eye" of knowing how to place things to make it look good like a site layout, the design on a peice of clothing, an outfit, or a picture (which is really frustating when i try looking for a wallpaper for my comp) it could be anything in life where i would think damn that looks good together or that looks really bad. i don't know exactly how i could incorporate this hidden ability to some sort of career to make lots o money but i don't know.

    i do have real estate in mind. i watch those house flipping shows and think how much some of those people suck at designing a simple house layout to get it sold quick (keep it simple stupid!). anyways that's my rant.

    i'll be the first to say that not all of your threads have to do with gay issues..at all.. which i suppose is okay by me...
    interior design, fashion design, graphic design (web pages and stuff), they could all work, though i suppose you have to learn additional skills for each of those

    I need to work in jobs with lots of people around.


    Just too dull otherwise, no matter what you are doing

    Take a bunch of different classes in college if you can. Everything from business to design (in everything that entails, i.e. art, graphic, web). It'll expose you just enough to each for you to find out what you really like, that was my experience anyway.
