| I am conflicted. I don't know what to do with my life. I am now thinking about changing to a theatre minor and picking up something else, but what that else is, I have no clue. And I need to figure this out soon becuase registeration for next semester's classes starts in a week. I am thinking about nursing, telecom, or sticking with theatre and getting a minor in two in something, but who knows what. Okay, if I do nursing, I will have to go one extra year of school for sure, but I will for sure have a job lined up when I graduate. The other good thing is that I would still be able to get a theatre minor if I did nursing. The problems are, I would have to go an extra year, the program is really intense, I still have a ton of prerec courses that I would need to fit in next semester in order to be admitted to the program, and they only take 50 students. So, what if I don't even make the program? I will have wasted a semester and will probably have to go atleast that extra semester just to finish what I had been working on, my theatre major. But nursing is a great career, and it really interests me, and I know I could do it and be a good nurse. Telecom: I don't really know anything about that. I am just in one telecom class this semester and I really like it, so I thought I would be intersted in the program. It has to do with media and performance in some aspects, and I like that, but again, I really have no clue what it is all about, or what kind of a job I could get with that degree. I have thought about getting a double major in telecom and theatre, but I don't know if I will have enough time to complete that in 4 years of school, well 2 1/2 now. Theatre, I love it. I am passionate about it, and I would like to do anything I can to be a part of it. But what on earth am I going to do with a theatre major? Who gets a job with one of those? Not too many people. And I know that I am not going to move to NY or LA unless a job or something takes me there, like Mike.  I do NOT want to be a starving artist. And I would be perfectly content doing tons of community theatre, so why do I need a theatre major for that? I don't really know to be honest, but I just don't like the idea of giving up theatre to do something else and I love love love learning about it and honing my skills, but I know I can't do anything with the major, can I? If anyone has any advice or thoughts on what I have written I would greatly appreciate you help. I just don't know what to do. Thank you so much! |
I think there are about 11 members, maybe 6 girls and 5 guys. I am not sure though because we haven't had our first practice yet, that is tomorrow! I am soooo excited! I just thought I would let you know!
