A Little Bit of Encouragement

r/

Hi everyone!

I’m in my early 20’s and a senior in college. I’m in a program to get my masters, so I’m staying an extra semester (if things don’t go as planned then 2 semesters). But.. I feel so burnt out and hopeless in myself because my friends are graduating and others are moving on with their lives. I know my hard work will pay off, but I can’t help but feel incredible sad and bitter that I’m still in school. I can’t really see where my future is heading either because there was a plan, but the hiring freeze is affecting me. I’m just overwhelmed with a sense of bitterness and stressed that I’ll still be in school when there are people out there living their life without any worries.

I grew up with immigrant parents and no grandparents. I would love to hear experiences or any advice anyone can share with me.

    You are so very young and you don’t even seem know it. Keep working hard. These times will pass. Finish your degree. What others are doing has nothing to do with you if you are pursuing your dream
