i’m useless to society
Hi. I won’t go into the specifics but I did A Levels last year and got a subpar RP. Got rejected from local universities, and was lost in terms of what to do.
Doing an internship in the media industry, and I always wanted to do media. Media in universities is not something I’m looking for because I want the hands-on experience. So I’m looking to go into Polytechnic.
Feeling conflicted because as a A-level graduate, the next step is supposedly University. But I failed to get into local university, and if the job prospects for local universities are already so shit, what makes it any better if I go to private university?
I should also be studying something “stable” and “reputable” right? I did Commerce for A levels and almost everyone was expecting me to study Biz. That is not where my passion lies, and if I go into Biz I’m just so afraid I’ll get stuck in corporate hell.
This country doesn’t support the arts. AI is running rampant but all I can think of is my passion. Am I just stupid and stubborn trying to carve a path for myself that seems impossible. I’m scared. I’m so scared. I’m upset at myself for everything that has gone up to this point.
I’m useless aren’t I? As a A-level graduate, why am I not as bright as my peers. I studied my ass off and it ended up like this. I feel very stuck and I don’t know what to do anymore.
Is there anything going for me anymore?
