It's my junior year in college and I'm realizing that I took too long to choose a major. In the beginning, it's that I thought everything would just "fall into place." I realize I'm far too idealistic for my own good, but it's one of those things you feel better off being even if it's not very practical. By sophomore year, I realized I needed to really start making decisions. And I tried. But goddamnit, I just couldn't come to any solid conclusions. I even took a class to figure out what I'd be good at, what would be my best fit. I finally decided on a major and felt confident in it, but recently I've been realizing it's not all I thought it'd be, but now, second semester of Junior year, I'm essentially stuck with it.
I used to believe I could be happy doing anything, as long as I had a fulfilling life outside of work. This may be partially true still, but I don't WANT that anymore, it's not enough. I want to like what I'm doing, at least a little. I guess what it boils down to, is I don't want to be part of the problem, the infamous, vague problem that affects every unfulfilled person in the world.
I need out. I wish there was some way of temporarily cutting off communication with everyone you know, without hurting anyone's feelings. But nothing important is ever easy.
