Zullay Orozco - Career plans & The end of the World.

Photography is my passion. I don’t think I could see myself working in anything else. I’m going to Columbia for this reason. I want my major to make me big.  I plan on making photography my career because I want to open up my own studio. I don’t want just a small little studio at the corner of a small street. I want this studio to be big. Since I’m planning on minoring in contemporary dance, this studio will have two purposes. One part of the studio will be for professional photography purposes and the other will be a dance studio. I plan to call it Z Photography & Dance. I guess since I will be opening up my own business I will come across a lot of challenges from angry clients to finding the right employees. But I believe that I can go through with all of it because this is my passion and I would love nothing else but to work with the thing I love to do the most. I also have experience through my mom’s business. She owns a hair salon and she has come through a lot of hardships, so I can say, I’ve seen it all. So if I have my own business it won’t be AS scary.

            I was raised as a Catholic so I do believe in God, but I was never really religious until I did my Conformation about four years ago. In classes, I was taught so much that I would never even think of or know of and it was all so new to me, I guess you can say, I used to be one of those people that calls themselves Catholics but they go to church once or twice a month and one of those times was probably a religious holiday like Christmas or Easter. I do believe people go to heaven or hell when they die but I also believe that once they are up in heaven they get to come back and re-live another life, or if they went to hell, forced to come back as something they would not like. The end of the world for me is kind of a joke, but no one will really know until the day it actually happens. Sometimes when I watch movies that explain how the world is going to end or shows that show people in reality that believe in those kinds of things and are already digging holes in their backyards and making special evacuation and meal plans to survive, I can’t lie it kind of scares me a little because it could be possible, and they will be the only ones that are ready. I mean, I’ve never really been afraid of death. I see it as, if it’s my time to go, I’ll go. It’s like those final destination movies where these groups of people try to cheat death but they end up dying anyway because there is no way you CAN cheat death. It just happens. You don’t know when you will die, it’s just a part of your destiny.
