Hello good sir 
!
I read everything you said and of course i've considered what you've said even before i started this thread. I've did a salary check on Graphic Designers, Interior Designers on jobstreet.com and it seems the average pay is 2-3k per month? That's pretty low. VERY LOW.
I love money, who doesn't? But it's not the ultimate thing i seek in life. Because well, i guess i'm not one who pursues materials or spend a million dollars on my family and houses and lands and properties etc. To me, i really have not much of an interest in that.
Well job satisfaction, well.. of course i want that. That's the reason why i'm enquiring about studying arts and all. Because it's true that 80% of people work for the sake of money and they do not enjoy it. So i don't want to be that 80%, i know it may sound naive. But this is my dream i'm talking about. It's my lifetime career, i'm not gonna spend my entire life running a company, doing business, perhaps cheating and backstabbing just to sit the highest position.
Being flexible is never an option if you wanna succeed in life right? Maybe i haven't experienced working till 3AM or so, but i'm currently in my school's Editorial Board and yes assignments to create layouts and stuff occur VERY frequently. I know i cannot compare to working till 3AM, but it's a starting point and it's good training.
I really thank you for your advise! It's not that i'm not ignoring it, or denying it's truth, but.. doing something i want, and going for the best college, and spending my whole life into a career, it really takes much thoughts and research, basically something i don't want to regret. I don't want to end up like 80% of people doing something they don't like. Or maybe someday when i retired, then i use my money to do Graphics and all, it's quite a waste to me.
Yes and i absolutely agree with having the right attitude. I think passion, attitude and talent are the 3 basic needs i guess. With all that comes perseverance and hardwork!
And thank you everyone for your honest and encouraging comments and replies!
completely agree with you. before i study multimedia, i already research the salary and the demands. but then i dont wanna waste my life doing things that im not enjoy just to get alot of money. so far it already 1 years and im enjoy doing the assignment and all (because it something that i love). i didnt even stress compare to my friend(their parent force them to study "demand course") where they end up being miserable and regret. if u doing things that you like and interest then u never bored, u feel like doing a hobby rather than work.!I read everything you said and of course i've considered what you've said even before i started this thread.
