Let's Play a game /adv/.

Get in here and greentext your situation in 15 lines or less and we tell each other how we would proceed.

Keep it honest. Keep shitposting to a minimum.

I'll start:

>24 yo. Male. Perfectly healthy. 6'2". 7/10 on a good day.
>Have B.S. degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences
>Missed the deadline for Fall 2016 grad school
>Don't want to go to school, anyways. Have zero interest in it anymore.
>Sounds cheesy but I've always wanted to be a musician.I want to create music and gain respect/admiration.
>Missed deadline for music school too, would be too expensive anyways.
>Work as phone salesman.
>Net income (after costs, that is) of $500 a month.
>$10k in savings. Maybe $8k in assets. 20k in student loan debt (stanford).
>Living costs mostly covered because living with parents.
>No gf, no wife, no kids, no obligations besides work.
>My plan is to stay put and keep saving but I'm wondering.....

I'm considering:
>(Directly pursuing my dream) Investing $5k in musical equip and improving my musical abilities while working and saving money.
>(Indirectly pursuing my dream with high potential to give up) Going for grad school or gaining employment directly related to my degree.

What would you do?

You just answered you're own question. Life is too short to do things you literally have zero interest in doing. Don't go to grad school if you truly have no interest in it. Either pursue the musician thing, or work with the degree you have now, or do both of those things simultaneously if you can handle it.

I really don't have a situation I can ask about here. I am suffering from chronic illness and I may commit suicide soon. What I decide to do with my life will be based more on upcoming medical test results than advice on the internet. But I still like to come on here and help other people out.

My advice is this. Life is meant to be enjoyed. If you're happy overall, keep doing what you're doing. If you're unhappy overall, change something.

Why do you need to go to grad school? A bsc allows you to practice as a pharmacist.

I'm already certified as a pharm tech. I could get licensed by the state and get a job.

I think you misunderstand. I'm Bachelors pharmaceutical chemist. Drug Design. R&D.

I can't work as a pharmacist without getting a Dr of Pharmacy graduate degree and getting licensed.
