ever just want to get away from it ALL??

[skim milk]

I want to get away from all of this.. and the more i think about it, the more pissed off I get.

I don't blame anyone for this except myself... I messed up and avoided everyone i met my freshman year in college.... and I thought being by myself was the best solution at that time... but being a loner finally gets to you.

I have no friends, i feel like I get no respect from people I see, when my sister brings people over, I'm stuck in my room looking like some reclusive dork.


I seriously just want ONE MORE chance to make it work.


in school, i'm fvcking up. I'm hearing from people i know how they are getting straight A's and have internship positions lined up for the summer... while I'm getting C's and have a 2.5 gpa with no passion for a dream. Even today, I had all day to study and on the weekends, but i just CAN'T study. This frustrates me to no end. I guess I need some social life too... but who can I turn to when I made myself a loner?

I have three finals approaching fast.. and i haven't done jack sh!t.

I'm not sick of school, i'm sick of where I'm at.
I want to start over at a new place where I don't know anybody, and a new environment instead of some boring hick town.

I would LOVE to transfer to a different university in a different state but who would accept me with a less than 3.0 gpa? and of course, money is an issue. Here I am getting most of my tuition paid for but i don't think this would be possible anywhere else.



I don't know but i feel so empty inside. I thought i was happy this whole time but i realized i wasn't genuinely happy.


what am I to do?

I'm losing focus. I want a new start.

Learn to make the situation you're in work, or you'll get in an endless cycle of new starts every couple years.

Put down the mouse, pick up a book, ace your exams, and celebrate with some little honey bunny!!

A new start is always possible, but it is rarely external. I had a similar situation last year, and I had my rebirth this last summer; it's been a hard year, and indeed it is busy; there are moments where I get frustrated realizing that I'll never have a 3.5+ GPA in college; but, that is life, those were the choices I made and I will go on. I finally realized that I was intelligent, a good communicator, and in many other respects a person with many things going for me, and that my short-term academic mistakes cannot significantly ruin a lifetime of academic skill and achievement.

Keep writing. Let it out.

Cheers!

Accept that education isn't the answer to everything.

At my senior school we were taught that if we pass our tests and are able to attend university, then our life is good, 'sorted'.. I'm not sure how to explain.. They made it sound as if it is the most important thing in the world, and if we worked hard our life would be 'complete'..

Its just not the case. You need to accept that sometimes we aren't meant to feel 'happy' or complete in what we do. Sometimes we are.

Go for a run man, do whatever you do to relax and sort yourself out

ever just want to get away from it ALL??

I'm in Greeley. I get the feeling ALL the time.

 

[Shawn]

I get that feeling every now and then. I just want to escape. But when I really think about it, there's no where to go. And I really do need my friends. And if I left I'd have no one.

Hate to say this, but looks like I am looking in a mirror. Well sort of.

Getting accepted into another university with below a 3.0 isn't hard at all. Say in Texas, University of Houston will accept you, so will Texas State. Now getting into your choice of major would be the problem.

:calgon;

i know what you mean. sometimes my wife and i (for different reasons than yours of course) dream of just throwing the children in the car and going somewhere new to start all over. aint gonna happen tho.

just gotta put yourself out there with a new perspective on it. give it a shot. any friends worth having will give you another chance. hang on to those, and move on from the ones that wont. just dont judge yourself on others achievments, but your own goals.

 

[TheBDB]

No, now stop being such a pvssy and FIX the problems in your life instead of moaning about them.

sent you a PM

As an advisor for the honors college at my school i can't emphasize enough how important it is to get involved. I think you might be surprised how many clubs, organizations, study groups, and things your college has to offer. It's up to you to take advantage of these however. Get involved! Find something that you're at least remotely interested in and take it from there.

Have you had a decent professor yet? Talk to him or her about the possibility of an internship or something, and if money is a problem, perhaps they would have some suggestions for a paid internship. Remeber, it's up to you. One last thing, I don't know if you have a hobby or a sport you pursue actively but you might want to consider something. Good luck

Little dose he know, all he has to do to " get away from it all " is let it all go.

The longer you dwell on what is, the longer it'll stay the way it is. It's insanely hard to change a mindset, but once you REALLY realize the fact that you're 100% responsible for keeping to yourself you'll realize initiative is needed on your part to make the changes you want.

If you want people in your life, force yourself to be around people every time you feel like being alone. Perhaps take on the challenge of getting physically fit as well, a poor diet can lead to depression and overall bad mood.

Nobody's forcing you to sit in you're room and mope man.

Are you serious? If you are, PM me. I might be able to help.
