This is your life. Are you who you want to be?
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Feeling pretty crappy.
This is my rant about the future and how scary and awful it is to think about…
I see other people who have their life together, or at least a plan that is well thought out. They’re doing something prestigious, important and worthwhile with their academics and future careers.
And then there’s me. I feel like I’m always stuck…never really going anywhere.
I have no idea what grad school programs I want to look into/apply to.
I should be working in a different psychology lab than I am currently in right now that is better suited for my career focus.
I should really be figuring out a senior thesis idea.
I should probably be thinking about preparing for the GRE.
There are just so many things that I know I should be taking care of and figuring out, but any time I think about them I get extremely anxious, stressed and upset. I’m struggling to find a direction…I never feel like what I’m doing at this school and in my studies is important or meaningful in any way. I keep being told I won’t be able to find a job/pay off my college loans/get into grad school after I’m done here.
All of this just makes me upset. I want it to go away but it won’t.
