Hashtag College Probs

Lately, I have been having somewhat of a midlife crisis. It's that time of the semester to start creating schedules and thinking about what courses I want to take next semester and I have been completely stressed by the whole ordeal. You need a final schedule and then a back-up schedule for that schedule, and then a back-up for that schedule and it's a whole lot of planning and unnecessary stress. You would think that the more I'm getting into my major courses, the more excited I would be to start my post-graduation career but it's having the opposite effect on me. Instead of getting pumped and excited, it's actually freaking me out. More than I would like to admit. For me, I want to enter the communications field and work in the music industry. It is my dream to work in the music industry either at a record label or booking tours for a large venue. I'm enrolling as a Public and Corporate Communications concentration and to be completely honest, I am kind of scared! I feel that my writing has a long way to go - as you can tell by my lack of blog posts - and although I use Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and Tumblr regularly, I'm nervous that it isn't enough. I know I have quite a while until graduation and when I have to start job searching but it is totally scary! I'm hoping that the courses I take here and whichever grad school I choose to enroll in, can properly prepare me for the so-called "real world". I am a bit of a perfectionist and definitely a type-A kind of person so this kind of worrying is second nature to me, but I think what I have to do is have some faith in the universe. I've always struggled with having faith in myself and in the universe that everything will be okay in the end, so I'm going to have to try extra hard to constantly remember to breathe. Everything is going to be okay. I'm not even sure anybody is reading this but I have to admit, writing these thoughts down have almost a cathartic effect on me; I feel better. Thanks for listening universe :)


Sincerely yours,

Amanda
