Senior Freakout

Well, the senior year"Oh fuck, what am I going to do with my life?" has hit me this past week. Sure, my major of psychology works well with my minors in gender studies and sociology, but where will that get me? Oh, that's right...unemployment. Originally I had just assumed I would go to grad school, but after attending every grad school thing Career Services has put on so far, all signs point to NO. Apparently I shouldn't go to grad school... I don't know what area of psych Id like to study, I'm pretty much avoiding the job world, and since I'm absolutely uncertain of what I'd like to do, seems I shouldn't waste the money and go. Now what am I going to do? Go home and go back to my summer job of waitressing where everyone is amazed to learn that I go to college and am 22 and not 14? I don't want to face that. Oh, and to make me feel like even more of a failure, I just withdrew from my year long senior project. Cool. Turns out when I went to the meeting, everything I had known was contradicted and I was already way too behind. With 4 classes and an SYE next semester it just wasnt going to work. Still cant help feeling like a loser though. I can tell Im going to be a very negative person this semester.
