do you ever feel like you don't know what you want to do with your life?

Yeah I’m currently taking art classes in college for that reason lol. I have a full time job at a company and I dk what I want to do to grow or move on from that. I love art so I’ve been taking college classes on that as something to do in the meantime until I actually figure out what I want to do with my life. Not only that but having that sort of hobby now has been nice to take my mind off of work when I’m at home.

I know what I want to do with my life but I have to work, so I won't actually get to do any of it.

Yes. It’s like I’m just watching everything happen, I don’t feel involved in life. It’s like floating through life feeling

Me.

Absolutely. I changed my mind about what to major in in college all through high school - went from wanting to go to law school, then education, then settle on Spanish Translation/Interpreting. So, I majored in that in college and graduated with a BA in it. The closer I got to graduation though, the sadder I felt because I realized that I wouldn't be getting a job in that field that easily. Which I did not, so after graduation, I got a job at a call center (which I hated,) then worked at a law firm, then finally got hired by the local school district where I've been for the past three years. This is where I decided I'd go down the alternative certification route to become an elementary school teacher. Is it what I always wanted? No. Am I sure I want to do this? Absolutely NOT. As a matter of fact, almost on a daily basis I wonder if I'm doing the right thing or wasting my time, but the more I think about it, the more I realize I have no idea what else I could do. Education is where the bulk of my experience is now and I'm in my late 20s so I feel like I need to just settle. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy it, and enjoy working with kids, but I'm also terrified of actually becoming a teacher. I'm afraid of failing and being a horrible teacher and dealing with parents so...I don't know what to do. So I'm just powering through and...we'll see what happens.

Yes. Before I went to uni. I took Accounting (no pure science) in HS. Im so bad at it its not even funny. Then When I was applying for Uni. I was just picking courses that sounds cool and now I end up with Food science and tech. After learning more about it. I dont think its a bad choice at all. LOL.

Yeah

Nothing is something worth doing

used to

Every single day. Life is so complicated. I never know what path to take, or if the path I've chosen is the right one. Everything is too much.

Absolutely, I'm studying education rn at uni and tbh I'm taking it one day at a time, I try not to worry about what I'm going to do after I graduate, it still keeps me up at night sometimes though, getting a job where I live as a foreigner with no experience will be hard. And I don't want to be stuck teaching English just bcs I'm a native speaker either
