What you study in school frequently has little to do with what you end up doing. What you start doing when you get out of school frequently doesn't end up being a lifetime career. You can always change your mind later, so don't sweat trying to find a career you're happy with the first time. I know many people that feel locked into their lives because they felt they HAD to get a job that was related to what they learned in school, and can't seem to think past that. No need to be one of those people (many of whom are very unhappy).
If you can turn what you love doing when you're NOT working into a money-maker, you'll be very happy, even if that job seems crazy from time to time. If you can't do that, but you can find a job that you never take home with you, pays for your hobbies, and leaves time for them, you can also be happy. And if you find you've made a bad choice, you can always make another. btw, I went to film school, and I've written software for the last 20 years, none of which was ever film related. I've never done anything with film since leaving school, other than watching way too many of them. I'm now working on a side business that has little to do with software (and nothing with film). |
