I want to enter the music industry. I am a full-time student. I am unemployed.  I have a savings account.
I am in school to be a doctor. I have a job waiting tables. I make tuition payments. I earn tips.
How do you manage your time between studying for school and work? It's definitely tough, but it's the only way I can afford med school. Med school is so expensive, if I don't wait tables, I'll have so much debt when I graduate. Yeah I bet - thats a big deal! When do you graduate? Just one year from now. It will definitely be a tough year, but there's light at the end of the tunnel. How's school going for you? The final stretch! That's awesome. Are you specializing in anything? School is OK for me - I'm studying supply chain management. It's really interesting so far. No specialties yet. I don't think I specialize until my residency. Supply chain management sounds interesting. Are you still thinking about trying to enter the music industry? What are you thinking you might specialize in? I do want to enter the music industry, but as more of a hobby. I've become a little disillusioned in the ability to make a successful career in music. I need something more stable. Currently, I'm thinking of specializing in neurology. My grandmother passed away from Alzheimer's, so I would like to be able to help people suffering from it. Yeah, the music industry can be really difficult. Especially nowadays with so much competition. Wow, that's so interesting. I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. Alzheimer's is an awful disease. I'm so impressed you're taking on that challenge. You're a hero! Do you know where your residency would be? Nope. I won't know until later this year. I put in my top choices, but the hospital has to also select me. There's a chance I could wind up being on the opposite side of the country. Oh wow - would you be OK with that? Unfortunately I don't really have a choice. If I don't accept where they place me, I won't have any hospital to do my residency at. It can be a frustrating process, but hopefully I get my first choice.
