Thank you Sabby and Isamson.

Isamson....What you describe is where I am now. I'm in grad school right now for Library Science...I was unable to find work with my bachelor's and decided to pursue higher education thinking it would help me find work later. I like library science (have worked in a library for 5 years) but I am also very creative. I am illustrating a children's book that's coming out on Halloween, and I love to paint and sew....I want to do more creative work but also want a stable job one day so I can support myself and travel. I just feel scared because I'm wondering if grad school was a mistake....or if I will have the patience and fortitude to complete my studies. Do you think I should have waited more...? Or maybe explored more creative options before taking the leap into grad school? I graduated from undergrad and then had no idea what to do with myself...I was out of school for 2 years and didn't find any type of work, had no idea what to do with myself...Now I am back in school. The schoolwork isn't even that hard, but I am so antsy and want to draw and paint and do other things as well...I want to travel, see the world....

What should I do? You are older, have been through this, are very likely much wiser than I am...I don't really want to quit school now as I have made the commitment and would feel pretty awful if I left now...

Some guidance or advice would be so appreciated in this very delicate time.... <3

Thank you so much,

Alma
