My major, my planned carrear, its not what I thought it would be.

My dream was to be an investigative journalist. I took an extra year of college after I had already graduated just so I could get an internship doing that kind of work. They sent me to political rallies, I had a press pass which got me into the areas most people couldn't go and got me respect others didn't, important people wanted to talk to me because they knew I would write something about them, I got to meet the manager for Bernie Sanders campaign in Georgia. But its cutthroat. I had been warned about this, but I figured berayals would be from people from rival news sources, not my own news team who had me do the work, took credit for it, and then said I had skipped out on the work.

College is over and I have no idea what I should do?

I spent so much of my life shooting for this, it was part of the game plan even before I graduated high school. I've been thinking about this for 12 years. The day I would get my diploma and graduate from college. Unlike the others in high school I wasn't exited about getting my diploma, I knew the end game was graduating college. So much effort, so much money, so much time, and now I'm here. Not sure what's next. Hoping I'm not the only one.
