It is frustrating but life is about choosing what bad things go with what good things. I chose a college degree that could work well in a bigger city, but I fell in love with the college town and chose to stay. Now I struggle to pay the bills but am surrounded by a community I love that both puts into me and gives me opportunities to put into. Part of it sucks, but part of it is the most fulfilling thing ever. Life is a series of choices, and it is okay to make one that sucks sometimes, as long as it fulfills you the rest of the time. I believe in you, and that you'll make the right choice.
