Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I will admit that the problem I will list out here is a “first-world problem,” but hear me out please. Some advice would be really helpful.
I went to college, got my bachelors/masters (along with lots of loans that I’ve now started to pay off), and entered a good career field. I like my profession and the versatility and the fact that I can pick up and go almost anywhere with it. At the moment, I am living in the city where I went to college, but have no idea what I’m going to do for my future. I’m not sure if I want to stay here. I have zero family here, and many of the friends that I made in college moved away after graduation. I have a few friends left, or should I say, acquaintances that I sometimes hang out with. I will admit I keep an emotional distance from people and that that’s one of the reasons why I haven’t formed close friendships in this city. Basically, I have nothing really holding me here except my job and my comfort zone. After all, I’ve been here six years in total, and have a good network. But where do I go from here? As it stands, all I have going in my life is my career. My immediate family lives about 4 hours away and I visit sometimes but my step-dad and I do not get along, so I don’t visit as often as I would like. Sometiems, I just feel really alone. All my co-workers have some kind of “base” here – family, significant others, etc. If I had that, I would be more at peace and more stable. I’m at an age where I should be thinking about settling down (I’m 23), but how can I do that if I haven’t found my niche? I feel so alone sometimes. I’m not sure what to do.
Any thoughts on someone going through a “quarter-life crisis”? Not sure if that’s what I’m experiencing but I’m sure as hell at a roadblock right now with regard to where I want my life to go. Lack of family/boyfriend/close friends in my area also makes me more restless.

I am graduating high school this year but I have decided to take a year off of school between now and college. (I do plan on going to college later on)
I am taking this year to better know what I want to do with my future. The only problem, is I don’t even know what I want to do with the next year of my life!
I love volunteering and helping people. I am creative and artistic. I love theater. I can’t really afford to travel… I mean I am 18 and working a minimum wage job in retail, so keep it realistic. I also am not opposed to anything affiliated with religion, I am a devote Christian so this would even be ideal.
I could just spend my year lazing around, but I want to better my understanding of not only myself, but the world around me.
All suggestions appreciated! Thanks 🙂

Is there any degree that would ALMOST guarantee me a job out of college? Is English or Psych or Sociology a good major for this job market,since it’s all I’m interested in? I SUCK at math so you can count Engineering out, or any other math affiliated degree. And I say English because that is my strong subject and I love writing, and it is the only I guess talent that people have noticed.
ALSO, does the school you graduate from have dictate your chances of getting a job?
Thanks

What do you guys think?:
I’m thinking of starting a sort of webpage designed for college students where they can post up about parties (frats/sororities/college sponsored events). you type in a zip code, and get a bunch of results. Thoughts? Has facebook already stolen that niche?

The deadline is in 3 days and I still am having a hard time deciding where I want to go…I don’t really know what I want to major in, so that doesn’t help at all, but I applied Undeclared-College of Letters and Science.
I would go to UCSB, but the only problem is that from what I’ve heard about it, the majority of the students there are very social and party/drink a lot, which I’m not opposed to, but it’s never been something that I’ve actively participated in. Idk, I just feel like I wouldn’t really fit in there, since I’m kind of socially awkward and quiet and have a bit of a nerdy streak. If there’s a place there for people who are sorta offbeat, I haven’t heard about it 😛
UCSC is apparently full of people like me, quirky, kinda weird, but still down to have a good time. It’s a gorgeous campus too (though it sort of pales in comparison to UCSB haha). It’s a lot farther away but I have family in San Jose so I would always have someone close by, not to mention that I have a couple of friends who are going there. The only thing is I feel like my family has turned their noses up at it because it’s not as prestigious as the other UCs, and I can kind of see why. Academics have never been hugely important to me but I do understand that UCSB is a great opportunity that I shouldn’t just throw away.
I guess what I’m basically asking is if there’d be a niche for me at UCSB? The only thing stopping me from going is that I’m worried I wouldn’t fit in since I’m not super popular/sociable, but maybe I’m just freaking out over nothing 😛
