Marcel M has a spectacular aura about
this is the same dilemma I had when debating what to take... I was in Health Occupations and hated it, and then i said "what can i take"... taking classes allow you the opportunity to do things you've always wondered about. For me, I always thought I could study Art, so I took it, and found I love reading about art, but its not a passion. i like to paint, but i would never attempt to sell my paintings. i took ceramics because i thought i like pottery, and found that i didn't have the patience to make pots and cups. i took Film and it was awesome, and realized i love film critiquing, and screenwriter, but couldn't see myself being a Camera Person or a Film Director, unless life somehow orchestrated it later. I took Musical Theater because I knew that music was a passion, and i loved acting, and found that i blossomed... but it took taking those classes and testing them out... all in my sophomore and junior year of high school... now im a senior, and pretty much know what i want to do right now.

my advice would be to take the Video Course and take the fashion course... i was curious about film and art, and although i really wanted to continue performing arts, i learned a lot of new things about myself and my interests by simply taking those. i will probably not major in Art because i know now where my interests lie. All this to say: Diversify your Exploration and take things that your curious about, and take something you already like and continue it or continue it later. :-)
