heyooooo cejep (college) question

[spidermanlovesmj]

Hey guys,
Alright I need some advice on what to do here...
Application for Cejep (which is like College, just in Québec they call it Cejep cause French people clearly always wanna be different than the rest of the World) is over as of a few months ago. Now, I plan on going into 'Graphic Design' in my future, as a career, puting together work for companies and stuff (Ads, billboards, etc.) on the comptuer (Photoshop, Dremweaver, etc.). I signed up for the closer (geographically) Cejep to me, in a program called 'Creative Arts, Literature and Languages' (C.A.L.L).
I soon came to the realization that it has nothing to do with Graphic Design; it's oriented mainly around film making and publishing. This other Cejep not too far away (pretty out of the way, actually, all the way downtown) has a 3-year program dedicated to Graphic Design.
The thing is, I'm already applied to this program at the other Cejep - the closer one - but I dont think it's exactly what I expected it to be; meaning, I don't think it will help me that much in what I would like to do.
What do you think I should do?
Wait and see, switch out now, wait until next semester etc.?

Any advice would be awesomely appreciated.
Thanks!!

well if you're not really interested in the filmmaking and publishing, or don't think it's going to better equip you for a career in graphic design, I would switch out and take the class farther away. It might end up being a waste of time.. then again it could help.. But it's up to you of course!

If you're talking about Dawson, I hear the program there is pretty good. I'm in a cegep that I hate and am doing a 5th semester next term as a consequence. I'd honestly say switch out next term... then again it really depends how far it is from you. I live near downtown so that wouldn't be an issue for me.

Fuck man I'm thinking about a lot of shit right now.

I switched from translator English-Spanish to marketing a few months ago.

Now my good stonerbuddies signed up for this 'SIRA' project.

It kinda comes down to going to school,kinda, but being trained to become Proces Operator in the Chemical sector.

So it's two days theoretical classes, then three days of applying what you learned.

The cool thing is the project works with a lot of bigass corporations, so a year later you graduate as Process Operator (which is homer simpson's job but with way better payment) and you're virtually already hired in one of those companies --> Which means that if I'd go for it I might actually be working this time next year, making moneyz!


So i'm pondering, I can either continue studying marketing and loose three years before actually doing something (with the risk of me failing somewhere in those three years, thus losing even more time) or go for it, do the tests, complete the training successfully and have a job.
