Wanna know a secret?

But either way, -try- not to worry! Even if you don't have confidence in you everyone else does, and it's not for no reason. Maybe try reminding yourself of that. Also, even though you're going into a competitive field, remember that it's one you can work your way up, and I'm pretty sure with your degree you've probably had enough illustrative experience that if worse comes to worse you're not stuck looking for jobs in only one field. (You can come work with me and draw porn on sidewalks!)
Do everything you can to motivate yourself, though. Hang out with friends, keep yourself busy and I dunno, get inspired or something. :( GO TO THE ART MUSEUM READ COMICS SEND ME STUFF GOD
It'll be ok. :( I love you!

Let's go.
Seriously, you know you don't have to do all this right now, right? It's okay if you don't start your career as you step out of college, and trying to make that happen is putting a lot of pressure on yourself. I'm not trying to tell you to underachieve, but just...it's okay if everything isn't figured out yet.
That probably doesn't help, so I'll go back to my deserted island thing.
Love you, Paige.
