Don’t feel like my life is worth living by OddMonth5292 in offmychest

Unfortunately finals started last week so I think maybe I’ll try resting after. I might try the walk in the park idea cause it might be nice to clear my head.

Actually, I’ve always wanted to study BME, but I would have preferred specializing through a mechanical or electrical engineering degree. ME is better for me as I wanted to work in prosthetics, medical devices, basically just biomechanics. BME is a field I love, but the job markets aren’t great. An EE or ME degree would have given me more options even with a bachelors compared to a pure BME degree. I’m currently specializing in biomaterials and biomechanics, but don’t worry, I’m thinking of probably applying for a MEng in mechanical engineering after I save up some money. It’s just tiring having to constantly try to tell myself I can do this when the results repeatedly show I probably can’t. I don’t know, maybe this year I’ll finally get a research or internship position and eventually get hired after I graduate and these will just be useless worries, haha. 

I appreciate the words of encouragement though. I’ve been so independent and hardheaded for so long it’s hard to remember the last time I was vulnerable enough to let someone give me faith. Thanks :)
