Realistically, I am unsure where I will be in five years' time. There are many opportunities to be taken and I would lie if I said I knew which one I will take. My main current considerations are doing a PhD (specialising in researching Celtic mythologies in either Scotland or Ireland); doing the PGCE and becoming a secondary school English teacher (because it was my secondary school English teacher who inspired my study of English at undergraduate); and searching for work within my local theatres (as I am interested in all aspects of the theatre, both onstage and backstage).
If you are considering studying a master’s, I would say it will seem that everyone and everything will inundate you with new information in your first few weeks of university. This is normal, and is something every student will have gone through; don’t let it dissuade you though, do your own thing; quoting a very cheesy motivational quote, ‘you are the master of your own fate’ – at the end of the day, it’s your university experience, and you should just enjoy it.
