Well I'm signing up for my junior year classes, and i'm stuck on this one. I don't know if i should take advanced web page design, and computer engineering, OR art fundamentals which will allow me to take drawing 1 and drawing 2 senior year; Problem is I'm kinda leaning toward a computer based career, but i also love drawing. What do you guys think?

I'd do what will make you money, so you can go back to school later and learn what you love.

take the tech, drawing is something easier to learn by yourself than computer tech.

In highschool you don't learn anything in technology. To get good at it it's better to teach yourself at home.

yea... i remember my gr.9 tech class was basically:
1) practice typing...
2) MS Word
3) Excel
4) Powerpoint
5) Flash (was Macromedia back then)
6) Pagemaker
7) HTML
Photoshop
I actually knew more about most of the stuff than the teacher :X

Go for technology, currently i'm in a technology based thingy myself at my school.
iono for your school, but in my school there are these paid summer internships, pretty cool stuff, my teacher for some reason treats it like the holy grail or something.
Oh, and my teacher said that it is the safest job out here for the U.S. since this isn't a kind of job which you can ship overseas, we do this type of work here.

I think I'm gonna take art now, so then i could take Drawing1, and Drawing2 at senior year. Then, I'm gonna take advanced web page desgin, next year, and wait for the other classes, till senior year.
On unrelated note: freaking chem teacher put me in honor physics
