I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY LIFE !, ahhhh Options

[pandamonium]

Gosh i hate it cause i graduated high school and everything was fine until they pushed you out the door to go to college. and NOW i dont know what to do with my life.

Well my problem is that i dont know what i wanna major in and do for the rest of my life.

I am up at 5 in the morning still looking through courses and colleges to transfer to but then it gets so confusing cause then you need prerequisites for everything. and you have to apply at this time or else you dont get accepted until fall. its been so long since i had a decent night of sleep.

the two majors that i am deciding on are completely different: Graphic Design and Nursing ?

Option 1. Graphic design : i love it and i know i would have fun during school cause it would be something i like doing. but then again how stable is this job? will i make a sufficient amount of money? But the downside to graphic design is that i dont know if i could find a job right after college. its tricky. i know exactly 3 people that graduated as graphic designers and were out of a job.... that scares me the most....

Option 2. Nursing : i could do nursing but it takes 4 years for a RN but i still have to get accepted to the program so i could do nursing then take the prerequisites... i would only have to work hard for the amount that it takes then this job will take care of me. it pays very well and its the second most stable job in america. and plus my mom is a nurse and she is the only one working in the family so she is able to support all of us. so this would take around 5 years or i could just become an associate.

Option 3. GD & LPNOr another way i could go is take graphic design for 4 years then if i dont have a job take up LPN (another kind of nurse) which will only take a little over a year. so i could have both.

I just dont know what i should do.. I am begging for some guidance and assistance . I needed to vent out, especially on createblog cause some of you might know the situation that im going through right now. And just so you know i am starting my second semester of college and majoring in graphic arts.

I know how you feel!

I don't know what i want to do either. or if there'll be job opportunities.
I just know digital media, desktop publishing, printing, communications technologies, and graphics majors sound fun and i would most likely loveee it. but i dunno if i have the talent for any of it. :\


everyone i know in my city is going to major in something common. like psychology. i feel so alone. half the time you cant even find the majors i might like on colleges' lists of majors.

one of my teachers majored in accounting and is now a keyboarding teacher. so i guess you never know where you're going to end up.
