Your guess is as good as mine.
Since graduating two years ago, I’ve had several jobs, one of which I loved (in web/digital), and others that have been more mixed. They have all been short-term contracts and there has never been funding available to keep me on, although colleagues have been pleased with my work.
At the moment I’m struggling with the frustration of not finding (and keeping) a fulfilling job, and anxiety about making the ‘wrong’ decisions and not getting the most from my chance at life. This blog will share some of my questions and thoughts, plus an insight into the rollercoaster of excitement that is my current working life.
If anyone out there is feeling the same way or asking similar questions, I’d love to hear from you. Maybe you felt like this a few years ago and are now successfully and happily pursuing a career in law/floristry/dog grooming/world domination that brings you daily joy? Or maybe you’re muddling along and that’s OK actually – you’re happy. Please share if you’d like to.
I’m in the same boat. I’m supposed to be graduating this year, but I don’t think that will happen and I have no idea what I even want to do afterwards. The company I was working at went out of business, and right now it’s really hard for me to find a new job. I see all of my friends landing jobs fresh out of college, and I just feel low sometimes when I think about my future. When I feel like that, I turn to what makes me feel happier: blogging and creating videos. I’m glad I came along your blog and hope that your life takes a turn for the better!

Hey Amanda, thanks for commenting and apologies for this incredibly slow response! Just wanted to say, I love your vlog on this subject – great to know other people are in the same boat and that things have fallen into place with your internship when it seemed like they weren’t going to. Good luck!
