I will never not be furious that my dad pressured me into going to college and getting myself into $26.6k debt. because I know damn well that he's not gonna help me pay any of that off. he's broke as hell, always has been and always will be. so here I am, a young adult trying to get my life in order and start new. and my first student loan payment is coming this month, graduated, starting at about $185. it's so stupid, it's just gonna make my life more complicated and make finances more annoying for me over the next 10+ years.
I just don't even want to think about it. I went to college to study music. and I'm in over $26,000 worth of debt after four years. probably one of the stupidest things I could've possibly done with my life honestly. cause now I'm not even sure what I want to do with that degree, I've been thinking about joining a local symphony but I'm sure there are people who are much better than I am and I'll always end up getting shoved back. I kinda don't have the willpower right now to push for success. I have too many other things that have taken priority in my life right now. it's just a sucky situation.
edit: not to mention, unless you're a teacher (which is not what I studied in college, or intend to become), or some really hot-shot bigwig musician, you're not gonna make a living playing music. I'll still have to work a job outside of that. so what's the point anyways? what was the point in putting myself in so much debt for a music degree?? it's asinine.
edit again: oh also, I'm getting reeeeally tired of constantly gaslighting myself into thinking I'm a horrible person with cruel/creepy/weird intentions. I don't even know when or why that started. it's just so hard to know what's true and what isn't, especially since I obviously can't read minds.
