Through my travels, I discovered there are
no jobs in sculpting. I’ve
searched on the occupation index, and there are almost I regret my impulsive
decision to change from marketing.
All my friends I had in first year have jobs in marketing lined up. Changing degrees again is out of the
question, I’ve put too much time in effort into sculpting now. I can’t justify wasting so much of my
parent’s money going through most of University, just to see it waste
away.
If I tough it out, I’m sure I can
eventually find a job. I was also
lucky enough to win a $1000 competition in third year toward my tuition. My sculpture won second place in the
Winterlude ice sculpting competition in Ottawa.
Additionally, I was able to volunteer at a sculptor’s
small workshop in the summer, where they made custom sculptures for
neighbourhood customers. Although
I couldn’t find a job, I found the volunteering surprisingly satisfying. I like following the specs that
customers give to me, instead of making my own design. I may consider something similar to
this as a future career path.
