OSFA, what was boring about it?
I wanted to be an architect for years before I started college. First year was not too hard, lots of arch history, including one class I had to drop three times, it was just a nightmare.
Second year things got way more technical - more studio classes, model building, technical drawing, so much detail - I'm sure you know what I mean.
When I went to Advertising, I felt like I learned so much more about design in that 2 1/2 years of arch school than I would have in the fine arts department. It was an interesting mix.
Then, when I finished up my minor in my last year, I took a Conceptual Drawing course and a Design Communication course. Now that was fun - had spent the previous 2 years or so using Photoshop constantly, and all the arch students taking those classes never had time to use Photoshop artistically. It was a really fun mix of the stuff I was doing and what they were doing - artistic architectural stuff similiar to Vir2l type stuff.
