Just here for the fun
I'm not entirely sure how to word this, but if a post on the main forum page has a tag the back button doesn't return me to the main page. It returns me to the sub-forum associated with the tag. If this is intended then disregard :)
Hey, Everyone.
Allow me to qualify myself for a short paragraph and we will be on our way to the main topic of this post:
My name is Caleb, I am 20 years of age, and this is my first post made on this site, so please bear with me as I try to explain where my head is at right now. I have been a sponsor first member firstie for about a year now, but have watched RT content since 2013 when one of my really good friends accidentally showed me a Rage Quit video. Ever since then I weaved my way in and out of old RT shows and playlists until I found out exactly what RT and AH were all about. After watching Minecraft, Shorts, PIG, GTA, Podcasts, Versus, etc. I was in love. Ever since then I have kept up with the jokes, personalities, and new additions to the family. Every last thing about RT has aided me through good and bad times, and one day I hope I can be a positive figure for someone else.
In the past two years I have found myself completely enjoying the art of filming and creating content (Not usually the most "watchable" stuff (a lot of cringe (can you put parenthesis inside parenthesis?))) Anyway... I have co-started a Twitch stream, ended a Twitch stream, started a separate Twitch stream, made Vines, made YouTube videos, and co-restarted a Twitch stream with one of my friends (the one that showed me Rage Quit on accident), which is doing very well currently.
So this is where I have a particular dilemma that I have been dealing with for the past year, or so. I am currently in school for my second year studying Cyber Security, which is pretty cool, I guess, however I haven't been necessarily enjoying it as of late. What I have been enjoying is running my stream because I get to produce content and provide comedy/gameplay for my small group of followers. I have toyed around with the idea of filming my friends and I doing ridiculous things and writing scripts to put into production, but I quickly realized I do not have time to do any of this stuff.
Basically, before I drag on any longer, I do not know what to do. Do I continue with CS and get a good paying job? Do I veer off the path and do something I would find enjoyable for a long time? How likely is it that production/writing would pan out for me in the future? How ridiculous do I sound talking about this?
Please let me know what you guys think. This has been bothering me for a while, and I don't want to talk to my parents about it quite yet for fear of them looking down on the idea.
To those of you that read this far, thank you so much. I can't wait to hear any and all input.
