Dis it normal to not know what to do next?

I'm 22, one year from graduating with a BA in English and I have no idea how or what I'm going to do to with my life to make a living. I'm a little worried that, for some unknown reason, things are not going to work out.

    Hey! Go write a novel! You must be good in English anyway!

    We all worried about that. Take whatever job pays enough to get by and then keep your eye out for jobs you like better. Eventually you'll end up with the career you're happy with.

    I'm graduating with Hba in english and history. Not sure what to do with that either haha. If you like writing maybe explore being an author? Or journalism?

    "Wear sunscreen"!!!!

    It might take time for you to figure out what you want to do with your life. And that's ok. It will come to you. Just keep your head up and your mind open.

    "The most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don’t."

    I wouldn't worry about it, I'm the same age and I'm constantly changing my mind STILL about what I want to do. Something will click in your mind one day and you'll know but for now, go with the flow until you work it out.
