Reeling from a bad interview and a crowded train ride home, I tossed these two into the growing pile of discarded career options. With the thesis deadline on the horizon, I began to fear for the worst. I wasn't sure if it was the way I was searching or the things I was searching for, but I was unhappy, worried and frustrated. Everything ended up paying too much money or too little, being too similar to an old experience or too new. I felt stuck between being too picky and taking any old thing.
