I'm in the end of my third year. . I am obtaining my Bachelors of Fine Arts:Fashion Design Before college, I felt confident in myself, unique, and loved life. Since starting college, I have felt less confident, ordinary, and not so happy. I also work 30 hours a week as a dental professional, while taking 15 credit hours. I know I'm getting burned out and I'm stretched pretty thin. Does anyone else feel this way???? I think it may be because before I was only around very few creative souls and now I am surrounded by 12,000 of them! ! ! !
hang in there, you're doing great! You're pursuing higher education, there's many people who can't say that. I'm just taking a few online classes, but I'm proud that I'm actually accomplishing something, I'm the first in my family to graduate high school, let alone go to college. Pursuit of knowledge and higher learning is the highest good in my book.
Hang in there if your degree is something you really want, if not don't bother. I listened to the, "just hang in there," speech without the caviot at the end and I was just dicked into an 11th semester for my Bachelors degree and am now 100% certain I could never actually work with the people who will be my peers (the fuckers doing the dicking).
Oh, and in response to what you said I agree, there is no faster way to take a curious, creative person and make them into a drone, than college. Albeit statistics show college educated drones drink more and are more likely to own boats, so there's that to look forward to.
