Should I transition out of the military?

My enlistment will be up this year and I plan to go to college full time as well as work on the side. Everyone is worried, and I admit I am too. Is this the right decision? With the military, they have been so good to me and secure, but I fear I may hit hardship when I leave.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

I want to get out because my true love is art, and I want to pursue this in Los Angeles. I want to work in photography and movies, which are both difficult career fields to get into.
