I really could just use some advice at this point. I am 20 years old and I am going 2 hours away to a college where I will be rooming with my best friend of 7 years. I have already completed 2 years at community college while living at home with my family. I literally didn't plan on moving away to college at all and didn't even know if I would go for my Bachelors. However, thanks to God, everything completely fell into place for me to attend this school I have wanted to go to since I graduated highschool. My ENTIRE friend group attends and I know that this is the right place for me. I am just so. terrified. I am INCREDIBLY close with my family and especially my mom. Every time I think about leaving them I instantly burst into tears. I leave in 2 days and I am a mess. I'm also terrified because I'm pursuing my dream of majoring in music so that I can live the unconventional musicians lifestyle after college and not be bound to one specific job title. It's my dream but everyone really freaks me out with all the talk about music being an unreliable, and essentially dumb, major. And all the articles I've been reading about majoring in music being extremely difficult and BUSY and I guess deep down I'm just scared. What if I can't make it? I could just use any advice that anyone has to offer me right now. Thanks.
