I'm about to enter the final year of engineering.
And lately, it feels like everyone's behavior around me is changing.
Every conversation somehow ends up at the same question:
"Aur....is saal placement lg jayegi na?"
It's strange because now every morning feels less about what I want and more about proving something to everyone else.
- Proving that these four years weren't a waste.
- Proving that I can get a job.
- Proving that I'm not a failure.
The worst part?
I don't even know what I want anymore.
- One day I'm motivated to crack placements.
- The next day I'm convinced I should do a master's degree.
- Then I start looking at government exams.
And sometimes I just want to become a content creator and build something of my own.
My future changes every few days, and honestly, it's f*cking exhausting.
Maybe that's what happens when you're standing at the edge of college life.
Everyone expects you to have the next 10 years figured out while you're still trying to figure out the next 10 months.
So I need some advice from people who've already been through this phase.
- Is it really over if you don't get a job before graduation?
- Is it okay to change careers after spending four years getting a degree?
- Did you also feel completely lost during your final year?
Because right now, I genuinely feel like I'm cooked, am I?
