I chose this course because I thought it would be interesting and something I would enjoy for 2 years since I have no idea what I really want to do with my life.

Future

I have no idea of what I want to do in terms of a job or something I want to accomplish but  a job in the game industry would be very good.

Attitudes are how you approach the job and how you act about the job. A attitude valued by employers is determination since they will know that they will get good quality work from you at 110% effort another attitude valued by employers is leadership since in a environment where you are in charge of making a game or project the employer will know that you will make them some good money out of your leadership with your team.
