Solipsus

The summer holidays are almost over, and being that my A-level results come out tomorrow, I have seriously changed my mind about going to University. Shock! I know, but I just feel I would get greater experience and would enjoy it more if I were to get a job in a design company and work my way up the ladder that way.

That being said, I have been working on a CV (kindly based on Jordan’s resume template), which once I get my results tomorrow I will send out to a list of local companies of whom I would like to work for. Things are already looking on the up; spontaneously I contacted a company on Friday and they have kindly replied and want to speak further over the phone with me about what we could do. :D

Though it has been proven that people with a degree earn more in the long run and go into higher ranking jobs, I would rather enjoy myself sooner and get into work sooner then spend another 3 years plodding along in education. Also, I feel if I have the talent and passion for the work, I do not see why I cannot earn the same as some person with a degree (and have less debt).

Again like yesterday’s post, here is to hoping. I shall post tomorrow (if I find the time) what my result are. :)
