Im 23 years old now and because I went to a stupid community college and didnt pick my major for 2 years and because I slacked off in high school im not going to get my fucking degree till im 25. I have been living with my parents and I dont think its really possible for me to move out or do anything with myself untill I finish. Right now im in a bad spot because I found out because of the way the average your GPA I cant get into the major I want without retaking classes. Its going to take me at least 7 years to finish college, while im living with my parents. I guess on the plus side I do have a job but its only part time and I don't make much.
 
It could be worse, you could be one of the huge percent of the world's population that has to live on less than a couple bucks a day.
 
so the fuck what? suck it up and move on. EVERYONE has made a mistake in their life, pining over it and being a little bitch accomplishes nothing. So what if you can't finish for a few years, I have friends who didn't get their BA/BS until they were damn near 30 and they do fine for themselves right now.
 
OP, if it makes you feel better I'm in my 30's and attending the University of Phoenix. That ought to make anyone feel better about their school situation.
 
Dont feel bad. I'm 32 with loads of experience and cant get a job. Still trudging through community college and I know god damn well its not gonna help me.
 
I didn't even start college till almost two years after I graduated high school. I then spent two years part time, two years full time in school, then I had to wait a year so I could retake a degree required class (p-chem and p-chem lab), before I could finally graduate. This was during the 70's and I was in no rush to leave school (even though I was paying a lot of the cost.)

Thirty some years later, I don't think about it that much. The only thing I wish I might have done differently was to have focused more on the scholastic aspect and less on all the other activities available at a large university. I was responsible to no one but myself and I was able to breeze through most classes with little effort. O, and did I mention it was the 70's?
