tiger woods.

I really don't know what to do.

I couldn't go to sleep yesterday because I kept debating with myself whether to stay an extra year or not. Those UCLA classes I took in the beginning of summer have helped me figure out what I want to pursue. I would love to be a Unit Production Mananger and the Director's Guild of America have this program that trains you to be a 2nd Assistant Director, so if you succesfully finish the program you'll be in the DGA and will be able to be hired as a 2nd Assistant Director and can work yourself up to 1st Assistant Director to Unit Production Manager.

In my head, me staying another year all depends if I'm admitted to the DGA Trainee Program, however, they don't tell you if you'll move on to the interviews till February I think. So, in reality, it doesn't depend on that. I just feel like it does.

So, I have three choices.

1. Don't apply this November but the next November. Stay an extra year at UCI. Pick up another major or minor. Gain more experience. Perhaps think about Grad school as well.

2. Apply this November and hope for the best. Graduate UCI. If I'm admitted: career plan is working. If I'm not: get internships and get whatever job(s) I can-and if I'm still having a hard time finding a good career starter job, apply again for the program and Grad School.

3. Freak out.

Right now I'm currently experiencing #3 BUT am leaning towards #2 BUT if I want to do #1 I have to decide in these coming weeks before school starts so I can start taking additional classes. BAH.
