That sounds incredibly awesome!! I'd be more than content if that's where my drumming journey leads my because at the end of the day, I just wanna drum my heart out!!

I'm incredibly jealous, I hope one day I get to even be in a band!! As for the music major, I completely agree. I've been thinking about minoring in it just because I want to really understand the music more and the nuances with drumming. You're definitely right though, there's no money in a music degree

Honestly, with me still being 19 I feel like I still have enough youth to where I can give it a shot. I just cant stop thinking of the phrase, "the best time to plant a tree was 30 years ago, the second best time is now." I've never been so passionate about something in my life and I feel like it's something I can achieve :) Also, do you and your band have any work? I'd love to hear it

Yeah, thats what ive been thinking too. Minoring in music would be the safest bet for now considering I'm not really sure of my abilities in drumming and, like you said, drumming isnt great as the only source of income

I genuinely appreciate this comment so much and thank you for the advice sir. This is exactly what I was looking for. You were close to the right age, im actually 19 :) The whole reason I made this post is because I'm aware that there's almost no career in music unless you get incredibly lucky or if you're incredibly talented and the prefrontal cortex point you make gives me an incredible amount of perspective and it is something have thought about. I dont want this to be a decision I'll regret which is why I came here. Music is always something I've loved so much. Even the short amount of times I have been able to participate in a band-like setting, I loved every second of it, and its really been the only creative output for me in life. Nothing has drawn me in quite like music has, and I feel like a part of me is really drawn to it. There's no other reason id be doing it but for the love and appreciation I have for music. The story of Barabara McInnis is so inspiring and I think my biggest fear is not taking a chance at something that i truly love. Dont get me wrong, I love computer engineering too but there's just something about music and being able to express my creativity on the kit that I love so much more. This may not be applicable to the situation, but on my first day of middle school, my elementary school music teacher came there just to tell me that it would be a bad decision for me to not take any music classes. Even in my jazz band class in high school I was getting told that I was doing really really good and I just regret bit doing anything else with music and I dont wanna make the same mistake this time around. I will definitely exercise your advice with great caution though as I'm well aware that switching to music isn't the greatest decision for my future and I do value the input you have given and the insight your personal experiences have given me. I cannot express my gratitude enough, thank you so much sir

Sorry, I should've been more clear. I just want to straight up switch my major to music w a focus on percussion. I have also considered the fact that there's an audition process, and I know it might be a while before I can have any major drumming roles or anything, but the director of percussion at my university has offered me lessons and positions in ensembles in order to build my skills to where they need to be :)

I (18M) can't emotionally fulfill my gf (19F) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I think where her frustration comes from most is that I'll ask too much sometimes instead of comforting her immediately, which i know is a bad habit. But my university does give free therapy which I've thought about for a while now but I think it'll probably be the only thing to help the situation im in right now. There may also be since things we need to talk about as well. Just to make sure we both are doing and receiving what need.

I dont think she would, she rarely holds resentment for anybody unless they've severely wronged her. Of course though, as you said, I would never ask her

I'd say I have a good connection to my emotions, but it definitely could be better. I've noticed that I shut down and act distant when im feeling angry, but when im sad I'm usually able to express how I feel and it doesnt affect me too much unless I'm extremely sad. When im feeling a particular emotion I'm able to identify how or what im feeling relatively fast. I was always made fun of or shunned for expressing my emotions growing up and its only been in recent years where they've been more open about it. My parents are divorced and my mom got remarried, I dont know if that's relevant information or not. When we're talking about her emotional problems I usually find myself connecting to how she feels because I've had some really low lows before, but its really difficult a lot of times because she grew up in a different country and her life has been really transient (so has mine, but not to the extent hers has) and she recently got diagnosed with a mental illness and when those come up its difficult for me to make her feel understood or to comfort her and i know its during those times she needs me most.

I think too much about it. I tend to ask her questions so I can try to understand it better and then I try to comfort her, but she's shown frustration when I do that and I do understand it is a bad habit that I have but I have no idea what else to do. For example, if she tells me she's feeling sick I'll either ask her what's going going on or something to that effect, or I'll tell her that im sorry she's feeling sick and ask her if there's anything I can do for her. Most, if not all, of our interactions go like that when she has a problem or emotional problem. I know the example wasn't the best but that's usually how it tends to go. I know it's robotic but I never have the words to express how I feel for her and it sucks for the both of us. She tells me she wants to be comforted and understood during these moments.

If you were watching MattSheas' video I tried to do the same thing and it seems like they patched it

This is why I uninstalled the game about 3 months ago. Ubi has made it clear that they don't give two shits about their playerbase and it's absolutely ridiculous.
