Other People’s College Experience

Past few days I’ve been thinking a bit about long-term projects and college education. I think I’ve envied college students who parleyed some college project into a job of some variety. People who started doing ‘a webcomic’ or ‘a thing’ that moved on to become their thing. I know, it’s never that easy but there’s some sort of corridor, some affect to what they’re doing.

I’m starting on my second year of my three year course and unless something shakes up remarkably I probably will end the course no better off than when I started beyond having had three years to sit down and write stuff, feel stressed and resentful, and watch my life change underneath me.

I wonder where I’ll be in two years’ time.
