I'm entering my second term at uni and the fact that I really don't know what I'm doing with my time here is starting to set in, hard.
I'm doing a creative subject and I just don't feel like I have the drive to pursue it, I don't really like the job instability and I feel like I'm not actually very interested in the subject, I just took it because I knew I didn't want to work a desk job but I haven't avoided that by picking a subject I'm not enjoying.
In an ideal world, I would drop out at the end of this year and go and do an animal management course - I love animals and think that a job taking care of them would be much more suited to me - more job security, more certainty, less reliance on my creativity which is being drained just by me thinking about having to do it for a living...
However, I know my parents will be furious if I drop out. They have helped me so much already financially that I know they would be so mad if I came home without a degree. BUT I also don't want to stay on for the next two and a bit years doing something that I can't see myself having a career in.
Any advice from people who dropped out or changed their courses in the same way, or even have just felt the same way I do right now would be much appreciated.
