Thinking about my future - ideas?
Hey all,
I'm currently a 21-year old college student in for my Associates in Art (Video Game focus). Lately I've been rather burnt out of art, and looking into other fields. Having a hard time finding something that interests me at all. However, I do like working with history, specifically the time period of 1970-1994 or so (especially the 80s). As a person with high-functioning autism, I especially have a love for different dates and years and anything involving researching history (especially 80s music history or car history). I also am interested in restoration work.
However, I don't know if it's worth getting into. I want to have a stable enough job that pays decent that I don't hate. I don't want to end up getting burnt out doing archiving, and in general, I don't really know where to start. I'm seeing posts that talk about getting a Masters, but I'm concerned of going down that path just to end up not liking it and wasting time. I live in Raleigh, NC, and I want to stay local to the area, and I feel like there may not be a lot of opportunities in North Carolina.. Or especially with my niche focus.
Currently I collect a lot of vintage 80s audio equipment, search through online PDFs of old music magazines, and interview former business owners and musicians from the 80s. Music is a huge passion of mine. However again, I get burnt out and unmotivated rather easily. I don't really know if it's the right choice for me, but I am interested.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
