So close, yet so far away

So, as of late, I've been staying with my sister and since she only lives in a one bedroom apartment, I get the comfort of sleeping on the couch all the time. It's not bad but it just sucks not having a place to call my own. Besides that I'm going on with my daily routine of just going to work and coming home and searching for some sort of college program that I want to go into. I've narrowed my search down to two options....

My first option is a degree in computer software engineering/development. The reason I'm leaning towards this degree is because I want to, one day, be a video game designer. Yes, I know, every kid that grew up playing video games wants to have a job that has to do with the video game industry, but no one really considers the actual development part of it so I see a lot more opportunities in this field than I do in the field of video game testers. Plus I think I would get a lot more satisfaction if I could say that I help create the next big thing.

The second option I'm leaning towards is a sports management degree. A lot of people probably don't know what this is. This degree is basically the degree you get if you want to become a sports agent, coaching, sports writers, team manager and the list goes on and on. There many different opportunities that come from having a sports management degree. With this degree, I would most likely try to get affiliated with a baseball team, such as the Omaha Stormchasers, and maybe one day be able to work my way up to the big league. I could even try to get on with the Omaha Nighthawks.

Even tho I know the two programs that I would want to go into, I still don't know where I would be able to get the money except for taking out student loans and I really don't want to have to do that. I look at student loans and all I see is myself being in debt for the next 10 years. Who wants to do that?

So, thats all I really have on my mind right now but new things keep popping onto my head daily so be on the lookout.
