At the start, like I imagine pretty much everyone, I was hopeful I'd get a job really fast. We're talking about 12 years ago.

That's when I started to be pressured at school to figure out what I wanted to do with my life. Speaking of which, I absolutely hated this kind of pushy behavior. All it honestly did was stress me out. The truth was, that at the time, I simply had no idea, and I wasn't even the tiniest bit ready to figure this out. This led to me actually scrambling to think of ideas of what I could possibly see myself doing later in life.

The first idea that popped into my head was sound designer. I actually always loved recording, so I figured why not? It could actually be fun. As time passed I realized that yes, it would really be something I'd like to do. So off I went, to examine my options.

The only two options that really did focus on sound design, I immediately had a bad feeling about them, and for good reasons. Both of them cost upwards of $20000.
