“you Know I Get It-”

I see a lot of people who tell young people–especially young people who are heading into college–that they should “do what they love.” And they’re right. You should do what you love.

But there’s a world of difference between doing what you love for you, and doing what you love for a paycheck. 

I went to undergrad for graphic design and 3-D design–art and more art, I usually say–and I loved it. You know what I didn’t love? Trying to collect my fees from clients. Trying to meet unrealistic, over-simplified or over-specific briefs from people who didn’t know what they were talking about. Coming home, having worked creatively all day, with no creative juice left for the things I wanted to do.

You know what I would tell you instead? Do something that you can be interested in, with people you like.

You don’t have to love it. Loving your work can be a lot, and it often means you have to live in your job 24/7. Some people can do that. Not everyone can, or should.  But if you can find work that’s interesting enough that it doesn’t feel tedious, and people you can enjoy spending your 9-5 with, and you can make money, that’s great! It means you can do the things you love for you.

I’m in law school now. It’s interesting work, and difficult, and I like doing it. I like how complicated it gets, and I like the stories it tells. But I don’t come home and read law journals for fun. I come home, and I sculpt, and I draw, and I paint, and I read. I do these things for me.

And I love it. 

thought about the sports comp arc and i need to lie down.. tamaki manipulated their entire school just to give kyoya the opportunity to be truly openly himself but also to give HIM the chance to fairly compete with kyoya because they are the same. they are both competitive and driven but tamaki never gets to have full access to this side of kyoya normally because kyoya always holds back, which cheapens any victory tamaki earns. they are perfect for each other and always have been and they revolve around each other and pull each other forward like no one else.

like YES we know kyoya has been rearranging his furniture levels of obsessed with tamaki from the beginning, but its fully reciprocated. tamaki will rearrange their world just for the chance to see the fire inside kyoya again.

When Neil goes pro he ends up in Jean's team and they're roommates. The first day Jean text Andrew "package received" with a picture of Neil in their apartment and Andrew answers "take care of him". Neil still misses Andrew, his last year of college was hell but now Jean's with him and he's feeling a bit better.

In the All for the game universe the sanrio Pochacco character would play exy, and for merchandise wear an exy uniform along with his other sports

I wholeheartedly believe Andrew still accompanies Renee to the banquets for her last year despite not being with Neil

Even if I didn’t have a solid plan, in the back of my head, I always assumed I’d kill myself.

Now I’m an adult and people my age have their lives in order and I’m stuck here, confused, because I never planned to be alive and I’m so far behind.

I feel like I’ll never catch up.

The deans were totally ex's or at least hooked up several times right?

Proving a point to my boyfriend.

PLEASE REBLOG if you (male or female) believe it is perfectly okay and natural for a guy of any age to cry

eight episodes is not a full season of television

young me especially would have hated hearing this but networking is literally the most important thing you can do to improve your situation like forget economic barriers to education etc just keep making friends with different people and eventually someone will offer you a hand up just because they dig your vibe and that is exactly all that's happening when undeserving people surpass you anyway
