Architectural Designs

College Grad running a new business? Oh Brother?

I intern part time at a architecture and interior design firm in their marketing/public realtions department. I am in school for advertising and I have 2 semesters to go (May 06). I have a small gourmet baking business that I started a few months back and business is starting to pick up. Im starting to look at some building in an area I would like to focus on in the city. I feel the city I live in is lacking a full service gourmet bakery that provides a variety of different desserts that are rich, natural contents and somewhat expensive to produce and sell. I considered getting a job in my field after school, (with my experience i could go to any construction,architecture,plan... firm)but there is no way i would be able to do that full time and bake on the side. I considered volunteering at a real estate office for my next internship to learn about this business and investments so i could do that and support myself during the new business processs after i graduate. What to do? Help?

1. Go with your degree, save the cooking for later. Or start the cooking business, and hire people to actually bake.
