I don't mean to talk on Chrissy's behalf but I think the both of us are going through very much the same thing right now, and her especially. Trying to figure out jobs that have to do with your major, classes you want to take vs those you need to, and even just figuring out what you enjoy is hard sometimes! Really, you should talk to Chrissy about it, because I think you guys could really vent well at each other.
My secret dream job is to write and draw comics with Chrissy. I wish!
We have talked a little bit, though thanks for pointing that out! It's definitely comforting to know that someone else understands, though I really wish no one else had to go through this kind of thing! Alas, everyone probably does.
Haha I wish that for you too. You guys would make kick-ass comics :)
It's a good experience to have had, overall, to have to struggle with what you want to know that it's really what you want. And I'm glad you're on the right track there. I definitely won't give up either, it's just gets discouraging sometimes. :)
I know we've talked a little bit about how we're in similar situations with what we want to do, but I'm pretty sure I'm starting to get the picture in that most people really don't get to thinking about what they really want in life until way after. I think there's a pressure because people want to avoid having you look back and go "what was I thinking?" since it's so easy to go on autopilot and just end up with a degree in one hand and not knowing what to do with it. But the counter problem is that you run into the life-crisis-situation that you and I reel over consistently
Like for example, I realized a week or so ago (don't remember if I told you this) that being a cultural anthropology major is probably pretty silly if you don't like travelling. So now what do I do, you know?
What I'm most sure of is that we'll both probably find something fulfilling with our lives, because we're really not the kind of people to settle over any less :)
Haha it's true, the funny thing about us is that we'll fret and worry but we also won't settle, so maybe that's okay in the end... Yeah. I wish it could just be utopian and we could all do what we're best at. :-/ Ah well. You're right, it will definitely work out somehow. Just gotta hang in there until then :)
Thank you dearest. I know I need to trust where I feel led. I guess I just get overwhelmed. But I'm grateful for the reminder that it's not the end of the world if I don't have my life planned out by the time I leave here. I hope you're able to keep pursuing your dreams too :)
