Yup. I mean, yeah it's easier if you go straight from college to a job. The main reason it's stressful not having done it immediately is self-doubt. Part of it could be circumstances out of our control, but much of it can be because we get in our own way and set ourselves up for failure. Failure is only an end if you choose not to get up again. =3
Thank you so much! Yeah, I just gotta remember that opportunities don't just end after college. It is just so much of this you should do this before college and then hearing about people's regrets and whatever are making me super stressed. It is nice to hear you say that oppurtinities are always around the corner. I should remember that!

Sounds like a lot of stuff to do, but like you told me, organizing things helps and I'm sure you can shuffle things around nicely. =3
Oh yeah, parents... You don't want to disappoint them, especially if they have more traditional ideas of what they'd like their children to become. Many parents will say things like "doctor, lawyer," because you'd have a better chance of supporting yourself. But in the end, it's better to do what you did and be honest with them and that this is something you really want to do with your life. But yeah, just stating something you already know X3 I had to sit down with my family at the beginning of the year and tell them I wanted to make this game. Even though it's taking longer than I originally hoped, my mom says "Don't give up, you've been working too hard to leave it unfinished." She also wants my brothers to help, but... they wouldn't like the subject matter XD;
No matter what happens with your job prospects, even if it doesn't go the way you want, there's always another opportunity around the corner =3 You can do the thing~!
