Hello,
I’ll be second year student at the University of Buffalo in Buffalo, NY. I’ve finally decided that this is what I want to do not only because I am good at selling/designing but also because its something solid I can work with after graduation.
I want to get my Masters in Marketing (is that called a MBA? Sorry dont know)
Also its the summer now and I’m just working to pay rent, etc. BUT I want to be successful and I know that the secret to success is getting started. What are some things I can do with my life currently that will help me with my career? Also what are other things I can do to be successful that dont necessarily have to do with my future career?
I just dont want to spend my summer just working and volunteering. I want to use every minute of my life to be doing something.

I live in Philadelphia. I’m trying to find a major in web development, not so much the design part (wouldn’t mind it, though) but the coding (php, jquery, and all of those fancy stuff including basics like html and css, etc.)
The only college/university I could find was Drexel, but Drexel is a private university and it’s EXPENSIVE. I need to attend a state affiliated college but I can’t find one with the major I want. I talked to my counselor and he seem a little clueless about web development.

I live in Philadelphia, PA and I’m trying to apply for state-affiliated colleges with this type of program and the only thing I could find was ‘graphic design’ and ‘computer science’.
I want to learn php, java, actionscript, e-commerce… Anything that has to do with building a website. It would be cool to also learn design too, but that’s not a focus. I’m more interested in fine arts than digital arts.
I read that I should major in computer science, but I’m not interested in programming robots like I’ve been reading. Please help me out.

So I got a degree in American Studies because that’s what I liked to do.
I did like it.
But now, I don’t know what to do!!
I was all over USAJOBS.com, but no luck.
Overall, I was hoping to land a job in Government, or working for some secret shadow agency full of good people.
But now, I wonder if it was all a waste. I mean, I know it wasn’t a waste, because I use the skills just in my basic , every day living. I don’t want to say it makes life easier, but I definitely make better decisions, which seem to make life better.
So all in all, if I had nothing, I do have that degree and knowledge packed in my brain.
Other than that, I don’t know what I”m doing anymore, after 2 years of job searching and resume writing and career counselor advising!!!
I talked with other people who have other degrees, and it’s all the same!!!
The people who seem to do well are females who majored in marketing or nursing or something.
My buddy has an accounting degree, and isn’t even using it! He does a job that I think doesn’t even require a degree.
My other buddy has a Masters in Business. And he’s doing what I did during school and still do to make ends meet when I can. Home Improvements! LIke fixing up old or busted houses and making them sell for high.
Thing is, he’s doing the labor part. He works for a company, but I think his friend owns it, so it’s all good I guess.
His friend also has a degree, I’m not sure in what though, probably business. But he’s just older, and has better connections. That’s why he with his bachelor’s, is my friends boss, who has the masters!
Why, because his friend’s dad owns a business or something. And may not even have a degree, just a real estate license.
But I digress….

I am nearly 16 and have Major Depressive Disorder which is being treated with fluoxetine (Prozac) 20mg/day. I have been on it for nearly two years. I think it may have stopped working, as I am having very serious thoughts of suicide and have been constructing a plan. Normally, this would mean I need to go up on my dosage of medication, but I have had, for longer than I have been on this medication, schizophrenia-like symptoms. These symptoms have been getting steadily worse since I was very young, but my therapist says that my medication may be making it worse. I am not sure. 20mg/day is a relatively low dose, and I was wondering what would happen if I just stop taking it cold turkey, instead of weaning off. I haven’t taken it yet today, and so far I feel fine. My therapist does not know that my depression has been worsening, and my prescribing doctor is not aware of the schizophrenia-like symptoms. I really don’t want to have to tell my doctor about the schizophrenia-like symptoms, because then I might have to see a psychiatrist and be dependent a whole new bunch of medications, so I need to do this by myself. Other reasons not to tell my doctor include but are not limited to a) I have a huge fear of being involuntarily committed to a psychiatric ward, and the schizophrenia-like symptoms could warrant that coupled with the suicidal thoughts, b) he’d tell my mother, who would only make matters worse despite good intentions, c) I believe he’s out of town this week, not to mention d) I sometimes wonder if he and other professionals are affiliated with the Watchers (the things that watch me all the time, I have no better way to describe them). And I can’t see a psychiatrist without a referral because I live in Canada, besides the fact that psychiatrists scare me… a lot. I need to do this myself. What will happen if I just stop taking the prozac? Will it be that bad?
I do exercise, but exercising has never really helped me. I can’t call my physician because I think he is out of the country right now on vacation. He is a pediatrician and my family doctor has seen me only a handful of times in my entire life, including when I was a baby, so I can’t and don’t want to see her.
