The direction of my career.....

Why can't I seem to focus right now? I just want to be done with college right now and go straight into my dream job. I know that is not reality though. I was looking at a friend of mines college yearbook. He graduated in 2004 and wanted to go into radio. He dose something totally opposite. I want to be a journalist but is it gonna be that difficult for me to get the job I want? I'm sure he likes his job but I'm also sure that he never thought he would be in the profession that he is in. I just want to be able to use my degree in Mass Communication. I have a lot to offer but I hope my employer can see that. I am starting to notice that the smartest thing for me to do is to create my own business or join a new one. It's nice to say that you did something on your own or you contributed to the foundation of something new, that nobody thought of before. I like to be original but I feel like most of my classes are not letting me do that. I like to write what's on my mind, something I know, not info from a book. That is what is making me stuck right now. I could have turned in my paper on time yesterday but I do not want a C on my paper I want an A. I just realized it's not that I'm not focused, its that I don't want to do what the class requires me to do. This paper is definitely going to be an A.
