I hate academia...

[MattyMayor]

hey,

So recently i've become frustrated with academia. I'm a junior in college - yet i have found no academic 'passion' - nothing that makes me wnat to study it all the time/think about it. Most people are saying that I should get a job this summer at some real company, that it could lead to a job post college.

sadly, i still think my life's work should have some meaning or something - i dunno.

basically i'm already scared to be a senior and actually an adult. grad school sounds [censored], mundane normal america job looms in the distance.

begrudingly yours,
me

the difference between me and you is that i am a senior and am beginning to completely freak out, not to mention that my major (biology) is not something i seriously enjoy studying and leaves me with very little options for my future (outside of grad school/ selling drugs/ actually becoming good at poker)
