There are these girls I know from church. They've graduated university around one or two years ago, so you can't expect them to have their degree-related jobs right off the bat. Some degrees, in my biased opinion, are useless, but then again, it's still not a bad idea to have a degree if you have any plans to work overseas as a teacher.
Continuing on. It's just that I don't want to live my life that way, you know? I don't want to graduate with a piece of paper in one hand and massive loan debt in other. I don't want to work at some place that's not related to my field, and I also don't want to be unemployed.
By seeing how these girls struggle with their lives, hating their unrelated field jobs, and thinking of going back to school, I can see that maybe one day, that could be my future if my cards don't play out well. And I definitely don't want to live my remaining twenty-something life out that way in the future.
All I know is that I'm scared. I've always been scared, and although my anxiety did die out a little, it's coming back to me again. I'm going to switch to another major soon, and I'm wondering if I'm making the right choice. I'm also wondering if I can get a job related to my field after I graduate from school. I don't want to struggle with payments, and I hope that I can be able to buy stuff that I like instead of struggling to pay for rent every month.
Maybe I should quit what I'm doing right now and go to a trade school. So, what does everyone think of this? Should I continue on with my major, or quit now and go to a trade school?
If I quit now, I would feel like I'm abandoning my old dreams for money... Gosh, even though times are tough right now, maybe I should stick up for my dreams.
How did you guys deal with this kind of situation? Or what advice can you offer me?
