'Graphic Design' as you seem to be defining it, does not exist. 'Graphic design' in its purest form is nothing but a system. It is the same system which your brain uses to turn thoughts into something which can be communicated. It is the same system that forms languages and runs cites, states countries and the world. It can be applied to anything and everything.
That being said, the profession known as 'graphic design' is for the most part utter and complete bullshit. Sure, theres a few people who have applied the system to the profession, but they are few and far between. Most of 'graphic design' is some re-hashed piece of crap with some words on it that ceases to mean anything in any context, which is the exact opposite of what 'graphic design' truly is.
My personal intention with 'graphic design' is to live it. I have no professional intention because that would only skew my personal intention.
The most rewarding aspect about 'graphic design' is making people think.
Every experience I have ever had has been my reason to 'choose' 'graphic design' because everyone of them has been 'graphic design.'
Yeah, so... where are you going to school?
