The fork road.

I now have three paths laid out in front of me...



I can continue designing. Since you know, I spent years studying and investing in this. Although I don't know how much more talks of Helvetica V.S [ insert sans serif here ] I can take. It seems that designers have began designing for each other and have forgotten their initial purpose. That purpose is utilizing their skills to fulfill their client's needs. The days of vanity designs are over. I guess this lesson totally destroys my website name. ef.



My second choice is to drop everything I've done and propel in the world of entertainment. I love acting. Back in high school, (besides kicking ass in art/design) I excelled in drama class. No kidding! Would I want to get paid to do something that I equate to playing? Hell yes! The trouble here is this, my Cantonese sucks. It would be wise to speak fluent Cantonese on a Cantonese show.



Or.....I can drop everything arts related, and jump into a new pond. Biology. Is it any surprise that my favourite piece at the OCAD Grad show was a piece from sculpture?



My fascination with living creatures and plants is what inspires much of my works. So when I saw this piece at the show - shrimps, moss, water and all, I was intrigued. Oh and look, this guy (Victor) even pairs his work with a meaningful piece of writing.

It's purpose is to highlight the interconnected relationship between water and land.


Very Zen-like!
