I'm a 21 year old college student and I have no idea what I'm doing with my life.
I study economics but love literature. I hate my major, but I'm a year and a half away from graduating and have been in school for 4 years (lost credits from transfering). I've done internships and have worked on research with professors but I hate my major. It's dry, dull, harsh, and leaves little room for creative thought because "neo-kanesian economics is the only true and righteous path" etc etc. Not that Austrian economics is any better, just that anyone who solely subscribes to one idea is a retard.
I wish I could write, but I'm not very creative. Has anyone else been in this rut? What did you do?

Got my economics degree, read lots, tried to fix Greece's debts, failed. Wrote a book about it.

Just finish your degree, but make sure you read literature during your free time. It's not really practical, majoring in English. And if you're really serious, you can always write literature. You don't need a degree to write fiction.

Real talk, when Europe's slow-motion collapse finally accelerates Varoufakis will be one of the men to rise from the rubble.

It all just feels so arbitrary. I've just become apathetic to just about everything and have no life goals set out. All of my friends all know what they want to be but I just.. don't.

Have you thought about working for your city government? If you conduct yourself well during the interview process you can probably get most low level jobs for some department.
