Anyone ever have an experience with advertising? I was thinking about maybe volunteering at an agency so I can get some experience and hopefully get a job in that field.

There is also the issue of paying back loans which thankfully aren't too high and I have 6 months after graduation to start paying.

Ugh, I kinda hate this part of my life right now. I heard it's not uncommon for other people to have gone through the same.

Can I please just fast forward to the future where I have a decent job with decent pay?
If it makes you feel better, I still don't know what I want to do and I've just graduated about a month ago. And yes, it's way more common than you think. The best advice I was given was to take things as they go. If something appeals to you, go for it. Take chances and explore what is out there, regardless of what other people say. If things fall through with that job, or you feel like it isn't suited for you, then you can change your mind. Things tend to work themselves out.

Volunteer or take an internship. This will look great on your resume and will show employers that you are dedicated and have some experience.
