What do I want to do?

What do I want to do? That for me, is the question right now as I'm still trying to work that out despite being in my third year.

The PPP module for this year has been really hard for me purely because it's more focused on career paths and the after college life. So I've finally decided to come out and be honest about how I feel starting from the beginning.

I joined this course because it covers a variety of different media and the course's diversity is where I found the attraction. I hoped to find out what area I wanted to specialise in after trying my hands at all the different mediums over time but to this day I'm still a little stumped on what I want to do. There are many areas of the course that I have taken a liking to but I don't feel any of my interests have that spark I'm looking for. I want to find something I'm passionate about and I still don't feel like I've found it but I don't want this to put me off. So, for now I have decided it's in my better interest to stay as a generalist and keep my options open in terms of a career path.

In terms of where I'm going to be located after college I know that I'm going to be staying fairly local because I'm to be moving in with my partner over the Summer hopefully. I have spoken about this briefly to one of my tutors and have agreed in terms of work that I should be willing to commute as far as Manchester.

I know this post has been delayed for way too long but I feel like I've come to terms with my initial problems in terms of career path and that I feel ready to move on do some research into various companies and looking at how I can utilise my skill set. So hopefully I should be posting a bit more for this module despite it being late. Better late than never though!
