No matter what you study or whichever field you choose, it
always comes down to one question i.e “Will you get suitable job opportunities
for going into a particular field?” Some people might judge me on this
statement but that’s not how I think but I am rather forced to think that way by
our own society.
After passing out from college you have loads of things to
look forward to, a whole new chapter of life is about to begin. From university
applications to aptitude tests it all seems good. But when it comes to choosing
fields apart from medicine, business studies, engineering, LLB every university
has loads to offer but well you are forced to choose the field ‘jis mein aapko
koi achi naukri mil jaye.’
Like seriously it’s so difficult for me to understand this
mindset of people. Since I’ve always wanted to pursue arts but well there’s not
a single day when I don’t get to hear that art is pure waste of time and there’s
no scope for arts blah blah blah. People can be so discouraging. I’ve already
regretted two years in college by choosing pre-medical even though I had least
interest in it. Now I don’t want to make another four years of my life hell just
so that I get a good job.
Some of you must be thinking that I am exaggerating but well
I am just concerned. While seeking advice from a senior who’s also studying in
an art school she advised me not to waste my time on something that
doesn't fulfill or satisfy me. There are plenty of jobs available in all
fields of art it’s just a matter of marketing myself. Making money
should not be a priority right now as a prospective university student; instead
I should just focus on being successful.
So I am just confused because my family is pushing me to do
BBA and I want to pursue a career in arts. SO that really puts me into a
difficult position. The other day I even considered the option for BBA and well
I started checking its courses and bloody hell they just sounded so dull and
boring. How can I even do accounts, economics and what no -____-
So I hope I figure out the solution to my problem soon. But
here’s an advice for you, do what you really want to do, because you don’t want
to regret your decision afterwards. J
oh well I am big supporter of that, a victim of sorts too. I wanted to persue literature but during my time that wasn't even an option for me. If I have to support my family I have to take sciences and I ended up being a software engineer. I hate it to simply put it. I agree, Please pick the thing that you like rather than something that may get you a job.
ReplyDeleteEverything happens for a reason.. art is in your blood running warm in your veins.. no one can take that away from you, you'll do something big one day hopefully. best wishes :)
ReplyDeleteYeah well you're right that's why I've accepted the fact that there must be a reason that m doing BBA now.
