I GOT NOWHERE ELSE TO GO

[__darkmatter]

So, I need to decide what I want to do with my life. Problem is, I haven't a clue. I was supposed to go a new school this semester and I did, but I wound up hating it so much I dropped out to rethink things. I haven't come any closer to rethinking anything. I can't find a school that feels right for me and, though I have an Associate's Degree in

If it's any consolation, I think the people who actually know what they want to do at our age are few and far between. You have some time to think things through at your own pace. Rushing to find something to do with your life when you don't know in the first place is going to end poorly. Take it from me!

What happened to voice acting?

I'm not sure what will happen with the voice acting thing. It's such a hard field to get into and it seems hard to find classes or whatever that teach about it. Maybe I should look into acting classes, but I'm not entirely sure. It it something I think I'd like to do, it's just hard to find a way into the business.

I was just curious what had ever happened with it, because I know you and Kaci were both really passionate about it. I can't imagine it's easy to get into-just like every creative field. Acting classes might help if you can spare the cash, but even if they don't help with voice acting they sound like they might be fun.

The bottom line is that it's unreasonable to expect people to know for sure what they want to do for the rest of their lives when they're in their early 20s. You might not have all the time in the world to figure it out, but you've got enough time to get a handle on it.

Yeah, I tend to stress out about this kind of shit far more than I need too, which just makes things worse. I was looking into some local acting classes for the fall here, but they wanted over $200 upfront, which I was uneasy about spending because it seemed a bit too much. I kind of wish I did though, I probably would have really liked it.

But it's nice to know it's not just me about being confused and scared about where I'm going. I guess it just felt that way because I was seeing so many kids I graduated with going off to different schools and pursuing things while I'm still stuck here in Jersey.
