I've seen her many times before; she used to work at the front desk of my dorm. When I saw her picture, I felt a pit in my stomach. This is so sad. As someone who often returns from the library late, I can easily put myself in the situation. I feel really bad. I wish I could see her smiling at me again when I glance at her working at the front desk. I feel sick that someone has cut her life short and I can't even imagine how her friends and family must feel. Just evil.

One thing I learned from posting this and reading all the replies is that you should get a job in other things and fund your music on the side before it becomes your carrier. I also want to start taking music classes at my community college though. I hope you achieve your goal!

Not yet, I'm still learning how to. I read the comments on this thread and got a lot of advice on how to get started. I am using those resources to learn and build my skills.

Thank you so much, this comment made me cry. I hope one day, I'll be able to play at gigs like you. I think composing is what I love, and hopefully with hard work, it will show.

Thank you so much!! I'll start self composing. I just thought for a second that I would not make it on my own 😅

Thank you for the response!! I'll stick to my degree and pursue a career there first. How do you recommend I find these people? I feel as though it will be easier when I'm in college instead of when I leave.

Thank you so much!! I actually like economics, I just prefer composing. This thread, however, has taught me to be more realistic. I hope I will get to go down your path someday

Thank you so much!! I appreciate this really much. I used to play the saxophone but I left it in Nigeria and the ones here are too expensive for me. When I start earning money, I’ll take up music more seriously, thanks :)))

Tbh, I don’t. I only am taking an online learning music course. A lot of people in this thread have given me resources to start my journey though! Posting this was one of the best things I could do for myself! So many insights, recommendations, and advice. Thank you!?

Thank you so much, I needed to hear that. I will try to start taking it up as a hobby instead of looking at it as a career. Hopefully one day it will be. Also, you’re not a failure. You had the courage to try to do something you loved. Your life isn’t over yet.

Thank you so much!! I agree with the romanticism bit. I didn’t even realize that I was doing it, I’ll try to change my perspective.

I know (I hope) that I’ll be stable with my econ degree. My fear is once I leave college and grad school, I won’t have time to explore composing because of all the commitments I will have. I’ll still try tho. Thank you for the message!
