The Pursuit of Knowledge

[Acebot44]

Almost Done with my History Major but I decided to pick up a Minor in Afro-American Studies which will keep me busy for a few more quarters. Then I'm off to Law School to focus on Sports or Entertainment Law.

It's funny, not funny ha ha but funny peculiar, that this thread was made when it was, because I've been thinking lately about all the things I am constantly learning about, and enjoying at the same time, that are totally separate from school. The thing is though, all this ancillary knowledge has definitely helped me more in my present work reality and will prove very beneficial to my career path in the future.

TED.com is my favorite thing in the world, and the fact that this years conference is happening an hours drive away from me is kinda of agitating, but I'm not gonna cry about it. Hearing the worlds most intelligent and creative speakers talk about what they love inspires me to not only learn more about what it is they speak of, but to find out what it is that I love...and that seems to be a combination of technology, media, and egos = sports and entertainment.

So I read tech blogs constantly to get my fix, watch TED.com and subscribe to the HBS Youtube Channel to broaden my knowledge in hopes of increasing my networking abilities, and go on informational interviews to Agencies and Sports Franchises to get their input on what that life is really like. Which reminds me, I've got to get ready for one with CAA today.


ps: I've also been reading up a lot on photography as a result of buying myself a dslr this past holiday season. Wish I had more time to play with it though.
