Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

I took a hard look at my hobbies and interests and tried to figure out how to combine them so that I could do something I like for a living. I ended up getting two degrees because I didn't figure out that my first one wouldn't give me a job I liked until I was almost done with it.

Deciding on a career is a lengthy process, and it's hard. Don't be discouraged if it takes you a few years to work it out. It wasn't until I was talking with the department head of my second degree that he mentioned a certain track I could pursue at that college. That was when I realized "Oh, this is perfect. This fits all the things I like." Took me 5 years after starting college initially for me to finally have a direction that sounded appealing.

It might help to keep a list of things you like to do or study. Keep it over time and add to it whenever you think of something else. Eventually, you might find that they coalesce into a particular direction.
