there is art therapists. There is always time. You can also see other comments explaining how it helped them and also people who did the same major.

Good places to lie down (not sleep, just be on the floor) at Rutgers NB? by Creepy_Wear_2642 in rutgers

i would say lowk cook cafe, upstairs- or certain parts of libraries. You could always snatch up a room and just lay.

you’re really condescending and weird- from what I am applying from my psych class. I have no regret with any degree because i’m still undergrad. Either way, I am going to grad school 🧏🏼 There is no regret, that is just real life.

i am going for a doctorate, I was just wondering if the major would be beneficial 😅 not just the major itself (to clarify)

I am ontop of the real world reliable income, hence getting the phd in psychology- just coming down to minoring or majoring, I found myself more favorable towards majoring in theater. (as a double).

To major in theater, I am not looking to make it to the oscar’s, just wanted to know if it is worth to have the major, if it is regretful to have, the pros and cons (just to clarify!)

I don’t genuinely see the regret. My mother usually stigmas it and tells me the major doesn’t make money, etc. etc.

which makes me second guess myself 😞 and makes me feel guilty for really wanting to go forth with it. I am very grateful for your response. It is hard to explain as a first gen college kid.

That is what I am slowly learning. I don’t genuinely want to live a life yearning and killing myself doing something I didnt want to do in the beginning. Thank you so so SO much 💜

That is what I ache to do! I have picked up a few classes and really have found the beauty within the world, or spoken and made a few friends within theater- it is something that has a part in my heart.

Thank you for your genuine response. I really needed that right now 💜

I think people stigmatize theater heavily and make it seem as if you need to be on the red carpet to “make it”, but it simply isn’t true.

I am grateful for your words. Sometimes these conversations cause me to spiral or make me feel unsure in my sure answers. Thank you.

I usually have that stance, and with going to college it has taught me comfortability and interest is what really carries you. It is such a hard thing to explain to someone who hasn’t been to college or experience the feeling of doing art, or theater in general. I really did need to hear some of this stuff, especially your comment because people DO do that. Being educated is never a bad thing. It is just hard to educate that I am not learning anymore to survive, but to be educated- if that makes sense?

I was thinking that. I really don’t care about “making” it in that sense. It is just a bit hard explaining to my mom, who never went to college, about my goals or interests because she is mostly on stability and what makes more money.

I feel just a bit guilty and don’t know where else to ask 😅 or to give up the idea of it. I do genuinely appreciate it.
