Any legit freelance sports writing jobs out there?

We Answered:

Yeah i know Yahoo sports blog will take you over Chris Chase. Hell, they'd take a pile of rhino sh*t over him by now.

What career should I focus on?

We Answered:

Okay, you need to stop being so insecure about your current job. You seem to be floating between jobs that sound good, end up being no so good, and moving on.

I'm going to give you a heads-up: NO JOB IS PERFECT! Every job is going to have a down side. The trick is to just find WHAT are good at.

You have two degrees and can only find part-time work? Now it's time for some tough love: stop making excuses with your anxiety and depression and stop living in the past. When you were younger, sure - you can always dream of being a pro sports hero or what not. That's not realistic, and there's no reason to even bring it up.

This is now. You have two degrees that are pretty darn good. You don't need more training, you need to learn how to utilize your experiences and your degrees. It's that simple. Figure out what you love to to do most and go from there. You can write. You can teach. That's what I gathered from your experiences.

However, it's not a positive thing to have 30 jobs under your belt in less than 20 years. That's just sad and shows that you aren't ready to commit.

My advice? Start volunteering and see where in that organization you enjoy working. Stay there for a few years and see where those connections take you. Calm down with finding that perfect job, and just realize that the key isn't finding the perfect job. It's finding a job that 1) makes you happy and 2) involves a skill you enjoy doing.

What are my chances of getting into UT Austin?

The bad news is that this is one of the most competitive schools in the country for admissions.

Sure hope you have some quality backups - such as UConn.
