I can't be the only one who imagines what they'd say in hypothetical scenarios, right? Right? Okay.

So I'm planning on going to the Future Accountants of America club meeting next Thursday at my college, to mingle and see what I can learn about the major I chose to study over an Illustration major. There's probably going to be a huge turn-out, as the email I got from the club stated that they received over 80 signatures on their sign-up sheet and the fact that an all-encompassing accounting club didn't exist until now means it's been a long time coming.

I imagine I'll be asked sooner or later why I want to be an accountant and I'd say something like:

"I honestly just want to live in an cozy artsy-fartsy apartment with my boyfriend and own all kinds of books, art, music, films, video games, etc., and start a collection of obscure indie comics and Eye Witness books, and I also want to buy fashionable clothes and also have a cat, and we'll drink wine and cook bomb-ass food and make love every night and invite friends over for Andy Warhol-esque dinner parties with banter and clashing ideologies and expanding ideas and we won't be stinkin' rich but we'll be happy as fuck and no one will mess with our happiness and we'll both pursue our creative endeavors until we become skeletons - me comics and visual art and him video games with beautiful storytelling, and life will be grand and LIVED TO THE FULLEST..

... so doing accounting is doing something that doesn't make me miserable and I can earn a decent amount of money for the kind of lifestyle I want in the future."

I am one materialistic little doe.

Also, I accidentally recommended my own blog entry xD I was trying to see who recommended it, so I clicked on it. Hehehe silly me~

I can certainly help you with your collection of obscure indie comics. :P

Oh by the way, APE (Alternative Press Expo) tends to be in San Francisco in October if you're interested. I've missed it every time I've been here but maybe this year it'll be different...
