So...here I am a 67 year old woman who only wishes I had had your self confidence at any time in my life. Bad comments aside for now, you are doing something so right for someone so young. You have expanded my reading life like no other. Your reading War and Peace and crying while doing so gave me the (courage?) to read it. It was my first book of 2022 and I am grateful. There are images from it in my head forever now...beautiful images. Taking your bad comments and turning them into recs was a brilliant idea. Reminded me of "I'm rubber, your glue. The words bounce off me and stick to you." I have a feeling that whatever you do, you will succeed. Thanks for the great content.

A piece of advice: don't take haters too seriously, you can read the critical comments from time to time but it's not essential that you read all the hate from some people.

I forced myself into law for the same reason, dropped out in my first year, switched to Linguistics and graduated top of my class, went on to do a PhD and went on to a very successful career in my "second most loved field", IT.

The comments about "what are you gonna do with your degree" are so relatable to me. I'm a history major (currently doing my master) and all I ever get is either that question or "sooo you wanna be a teacher then, right?". No Susan, I don't wanna teach kids. Don't get me wrong, I have the highest respect for teachers, but I could never. I think what I love about my degree (and what you probably also love about yours) is that it gives us the ability to acquire knowledge we're interested in, but doesn't pigeonhole to just doing one specific job. Sure, it's not as safe as studying law or medicine and just knowing you'll be a doctor or attorney, but it gives us more freedom to pursue many different things that we're passionate about. I could never imagine just doing one thing as a job for my entire life. That's just me.

As someone who used to be a freelance global headhunter for a multi-billion dollar life science company. I saw 1000’s of CV’s/resumes and it really did not matter that much about what degree someone had, it was more about the fact that they HAD a degree. People who have the work ethic, the research skills, the focus to actually complete a degree is one of the main reasons employers want someone with a degree. If you can back that up with experience in whatever job you are going for, then (unless a certain degree is asked for) it doesn’t matter. It just proves that the person can put their head down and get the work done. Always do what you are passionate about because otherwise you are just dragging yourself through a life you have no interest in. Great video! ♥️

I think it's very telling that almost all the comments originate from men. Just saying... and I also majored in a "useless" degree (East Asian Studies) because I have a passion for it and now I'm happily employed and make more money than I've ever expected. I also know a lot of people who majored in "important" degrees who are completely wrecked now and hate their life. So never listen to anyone telling you to major in a subject you have no interest in just because it will make you rich. Fact is that there are no guarantees in life and you can end up broke no matter what you majored in. So at least have fun and enjoy yourself.

Us English majors and artists are tired of justifying our choices and existence to people in our lives, I can only imagine how annoying it's to receive these anonymous comments online. We've heard all the jokes about our future financial state and the uselessness of our degree. We know what we're getting into from the start. The fact that some people don't see the value in what we do, doesn't mean that it's not valuable. Belittling our degree just because it isn't going to cure a disease is an ignorant take, at best. Literature might not save lives on the surface, but it has saved mine many times and provided an escape from the darkest chasms of my mind. Sending love to you, Emmie, and I'm really looking forward to your video! xx
