Disillusioned

When you go to University and study for your degree what the knowledgeable tutors don't tell you is that once you graduate, you will be in so much debt that you can't possibly do the nice teacher training course you kind of wanted to do, and really all your qualified in is to make 'pretty pictures'.

They won't tell you in the long speech at your graduation that although Well Done for getting the 2:1 which you really worked hard for, when it really does comes down to it, the only thing that is going to help you get anywhere is the fact that you have worked in the Health Records department at your local hospital while you were painting those 'pretty pictures' that helped you gain the 2:1 your family are proud of you for.

So now when I sit at my desk which fortunately has a window seat and I type out letter after monotonous letter I can't help but think 'This can't be it'
.



Being disillusioned at 23, is not a good look.
