from personal experience, i found that learning programs is really the last step in the design process. you need to hone your own personal skills first. draw a lot - look at typography, look at how letters fit together.
photography actually helps a lot, and you wind up using it often as well.
it's not something you get right away. you need to do it over and over. it's one of those wierd fields where it's an asset to have a personal style, but you still need the stylistic versatility to be able to get out of your comfort zone.
theory and schooling won't help you at all unless you have the eye and the skills to back it up with.
for resources, i find picking up any nicely published art or fashion magazine and just looking at their layout is extremely helpful. also, print magazine does an annual issue about the year in design - it's a bible.
sorry about the ranty post.

2. that the world will go apeshit and we'll have another war
3. that i'm going to eventually have a kid that turns out to be completely ignorant, indifferent and apathetic to the world around it. and i'm going to have to put up with it.

being a paper nerd, almost any art magazine with a great print/paper job makes me happy. as in nice thick paper and matte finishes. so much more attractive and pro.
