Don't apologize, it's better to get it all out. I'm sorry you're feeling low - it's the full moon today and everybody seems extra emotional. Anyway, I was in the same position as you in college. I had no idea what I was going to do (and rather stupidly didn't spend much time worrying about it). Things turned out all right, though, and I ended up doing something I really like.
It's hard not to at times, but comparing yourself with other people can be really debilitating and unhelpful. It might be right for you that you don't know what you want to do yet - it leaves you more open to whatever opportunities might come along. Sometimes I feel that kids who have a whole career path mapped out very early are shortchanging themselves.

EiR: I'm sorry you're going through a tough time. Chloe had a very good point about not being too hard on yourself about not having "everything figured out." That said, a message board is hardly a good place to talk about this. You don't know who you're talking to, and you don't know who else is reading. Your using the word 'suicide' might have been in jest, I don't know, but... There should be a place on your campus where students can talk to professionals about adjustments issues. Again, I'm sorry; but I'd be very very careful about what you write on a message board, especially if it ends up being very personal in nature.

Posted: 4/22/05 at 7:32pmYou're right, amasis, it's easy to start feeling like we're in our own little world here. Talkiing with a counselor can be really helpful. *raises hand* I've done that myself.

Posted: 4/22/05 at 7:50pmYes, I would definitely encourage talking to a counselor. And look, I'm not discounting that sometimes you form friendships on this board and would then feel comfortable talking through problems with them. There are one or two posters here that I've gotten very close to, and they know stuff that I normally only share with my 'real-life' friends. But: 1. The conversation usually takes place in private. And 2. While friends can provide an incredible support system, there are times when you do need to seek out someone with counseling experience. There are times when you only need to rant, and there are times when you have real issues to work through. I hope that made sense...

hi!
"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell

Yep Diva, relationshipy type stuff is bad from both genders. Life tends to suck unless I'm in a theatre.
Emcee: I'm going to three shows next week, and just trying to block out the two enormous projects I'll be putting off. Its like when I went to the DRS lottery Thurs night, I had so much to do but I couldn't help myself.
I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.
