Like Knives

Yes this is a blog on knives. I've been a collector for a while and it is a hobby that I greatly enjoy. The name of this blog was derived from a song by City and Colour. I found it fitting.

I am however not completely one dimensional. Expect posts from a wider array of topics. Stationary, Technology, film are some of my other hobbies. Actually you will see quite a bit of stationary here.

Hope there is something for you here

ah go fuck y’self

yeahhhh… i’d like to see the country without architects, advertisers or any form of visual entertainment. 

So how many people with these degrees do you think that NBC has hired on in their company? Like, lol

haha omg exactly!

Just to view this in a bit different light and put a positive spin on some folks life choices out there;
Perhaps the lesson to be learned here is that these fields, while valued in our society, do not require a college education for mastery in.  To take my own life as an example, I am 30 years old and largely work as a professional stage actor.  I’ve put about 18 years of stage experience in so far, but only really started taking acting seriously about 5 or 6 years ago.  In those 5 years, I went from doing community shows and college plays that would rehearse for 3-4 months and perform 2-4 shows total at the end of that process to doing well paid productions that rehearse 3 nights a week for a month and a half and have 15-20 performances.  In the next year, I will be doing my first national union shows that will perform longer than they rehearse.  My mastery of performance is growing every day.
I have put 348 credit hours into collegiate study and spent 8 and a half years of my teenage and adult life at college and university.  Three of those credit hours were in theatre courses, and that was because it was a requirement at my first college.
What this country needs to realize is that college is NOT something everyone needs to go to.  We have diversified our majors so much and socially depreciated the value of trades and apprenticeships so much that many teenagers don’t even question whether or not they should go to college.  The advisers across this country tell high schoolers that college will ensure a job for them, that no matter what, they can study whatever interests them at school and it will be worth the mountain of debt that comes with attending US universities.  I got extremely lucky with scholarships that I largely took for granted and the fact that I was essentially forced by my parents to attend State schools before the price hike went into effect.  I have managed to only have a middling amount of debt, but most are no-where near as lucky as I was.
I suppose my point here is that if you have an interest in the fine arts, in production or graphic design, if you have ideas for new and innovative ways of building things, that’s wonderful.  These fields can be rich and rewarding and fulfilling.  They can make those around you feel wonderful and I encourage everyone who has even a passing interest to try pursuing this for a period of time.  What you don’t need to do is go off to college to study these sorts of things.  Get yourself involved in an apprenticeship; audition, audition, audition; create constantly in your free time.  The skills WILL come to you over time, and you won’t incur insurmountable piles of debt.

Also as a point egarding architecture, it is referring to a bachelors. It is not a field uou just do your bachelors in and call it quits. You usually need to get your masters. So yeah, just getting a bachelors in architecture will make it hard to get a job in your field.
