If i had a flying car I would attend hogwarts and my name would by ronald weasley
I would travel the world! I like your answer better!!
hehe do you like harry potter?
I'm not a huge fan. I have read a couple of the books and seen the movies but I never really got into it. My family did though. Are you a big fan?
I was when I was younger yeah! I had a huge hogwarts sign hanging in my room for quite a decent amount of my highschool years. I still have it somewhere in fact
I really tried to get into it, but I don't know. I just never loved the story.  But I know all about it! My sister collected all of the wands and hung them in her room!!
did you read any books as a child? what were ones that did interest you?
I was really into Divergent, the Hunger Games, and the Maze Runner! I loved those books!!
hunger games was awesome, though i hated the ending. I never really liked peeta too be honest. Ive heard really good things about the other two but never got around to reading thme
Really? Peeta was my favorite!! I loved him in the books, but not so much in the movies. The Maze Runner was a really good series now that I look back divergent wasn't that amazing. But 12 year old me liked it!
i agree with you, peeta in the movie, first off im not a big fan of the actor that played his part. second they made him seem like such a baby. ahaha 12 year old versions of us are so naiive but i miss it
Exactly! Those were the good times! When I wasn't stressed about paying for college!
have you looked into getting a fafsa?
Yeah. I'm working on scholarships and stuff too. I'm figuring it out!
good girl. if for whatever reason that doesnt work out you can look into getting a student loan, just make sure its subsidized, that way they wont charge you interest until after you graduate its really nice for when your scholarship runs out
I'll have to keep that in mind!
so what else is going on in your life>?
Honestly I'm just counting down the days until I graduate!! What about you? Oh! And I'm just slowing dying as I watch the Jazz lose by 30 points!!
rough, I dont watch too many sports, do you? Same, except im waiting for college graduation it never ends
I love sports!! I'm a big basketball, soccer, and football fan! I basically love any sport! I'm excited for college! I know it will be very hard but I will finally get to study what I want!! I guess that's what I thought about high school too...
you should get a Roc pass they are a pretty good deal for students I hear though ive never had one. its so nice. you have to get over your generals first though which is rough
I will for sure get a ROC pass!! And it will be used all the time!! I'm not too worried about generals im just worried about getting into the animation program!!  I know generals are no fun though!
no way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats awesome its so hard! do you do a lot of art?
Yeah! I have been really working on figure drawing because that's a big part of getting into the program. But I love drawing!! I draw for like an hour every day so I can improve enough to get into the program!
yes yes yes, keep doing that, practice religiously!  the more you draw the better, its one of the hardest programs to get into at byu and since you havent started classes yet there is  no better time to get in as many hours as you possibly can before you have to apply
I have studied and basically memorized what I can do to get into the program! I'm already stressed about it! But I have the work ethic so I'll continue to work every day. And if I don't get in then I'll try for something else, but I'm going to do everything I can to get into the program!
You could go into illustration if you dont get it. but dont short cut yourself, go big, dream big! honestly my major only excepts 15 people a year and i got in and im nothing special so i believe in you and if you ever need any counsel im here for you
What are you majoring in?
industrial design and i have a minor in business. I also have an art backround but i render products and make them in real life. lol
That's so cool!! How much longer until you graduate?
i have 2 more years my major is a four year program
You are getting close!! That's so exciting!
yeah, but it feels so far away, youll understand after awhile. college gets old, eventually you want to move on with your life.
I'm sure it won't take that long for me to get sick of college! I'll bet it will take a year maybe two.
yeah that about right. it gets hard to be enthused after awhile
I bet! What are your plans for after you graduate? (If you have any yet)
I want to work for a design consultancy to understand how they do business and learn so eventually i can break off and form my own design consultancy that innovates materials to find sustainable solutions for everyday products that we use. I am really interested in the environment and economics so id like to explore both of those realms
That's super cool!! I'm impressed! That's an incredible goal, I'm routing for you!!
thank you. like i said dream big if you dont set hte bar high youll never get close
That's great advice! I'll have to remember that!!
thats why even if it gets really tough with animation you need to believe in yourself and push yourself at all costs. if that means pulling an all nighter. do it.
That might happen quite a few times! But I'm ready!! I really hate to end this but I have to go.  Thanks for all of your wonderful advice I have loved talking to you!
