Hopeful success

As a orange, I have a zest for life and desire to test the limits may best expresses your nature. oranges tend to be the adventurous ones. Which explains about me. I have tendency to be hyper full of energy, when I talk my voice makes me sound like I'm screaming because of how loudly I speak, and I multitask a lot. The true colors test has given me graphic artist/designer. Their job was made to work anywhere comfortable. It's funny how it chose that as one of my option because i am currently enrolled in a digital art class at El Camino College. Graphic designers can be categorized in many ways. From designing animations for any cartoon shows to making designs for clothing brands that people might want to wear. Education for a graphic designer is pretty simple, what is needed more to be successful in that career is connection with people who knows how to get things out to people who would be willing to pay for one's graphic design. Graphic designers salary depends on experience and how good they work on the project. In Los Angeles the average pay for them is around $55,000 yearly depending on how big the project is.
I have bunch of friends who are graphic designers. one of them named cory who i talked to about his career and his currently working on a clothing brand called "zen". i asked him a couple of question because i was interested in his type of work.
What type of education is needed?
"Taking some graphic design classes and drawing fundamentals will help quite a lot and also working for my dad who designs so i guess i'm lucky"
Are there any negatives about this job?
"Well yes there is, there is always pros and cons on any job. being a graphic designer is hard work, it takes time to be successful in it. just gotta keep trying and moving forward"
He has also told me what he like most about his job is getting to move on his own pace at his own time and no one could be the boss of him. 
I concluded that being a graphic designer is the one for me because i like to be creative with my work. I like to just do things when i feel like doing things. That was my plan all along even when i was in Highschool. It is me and my little brother's dream to make our clothing brand, making hats and clothing mostly and eventually designing skateboards.
