I just dont see any future in my life right now......school, future, life......it's really not going the way I want it to be at all.

This is my last semester in school, and I'm retaking a class I did bad last semester. studying for 10 hours today(wasn't cramming), I still have no idea....and the test is monday. I mean, it comes to the point where I feel bad if I take a break...but i'm so tired, i really cant study anymore tonight.

My gpa is so bad that if I dont do good this semester, it will literally mean I wont graduate college, and my family and friends all think i'm gonna graduate.

I have no money now because I quit my job this semester to concentrate on school......but still no help.

I'm taking 5 classes, and 3 are easy(A or B grade for sure)......so i'm only technically studying for only 2 classes, but i think i'm doing bad in all 2 of them....even w/ studying everyday, and seeing the professors for help.

my girlfriend already graduated college and is coming to visit me and once she comes, we are gonna work on settling our lives together....

oh man, things are just not going things the way I want. I'm seriously and really doing the best that I can.....but I still haven't figured out what I am doing wrong.....


I mean, i'm really at the point where if I take a break to watch tv, or go out to buy some lunch, I feel that I shouldn't do it, because i'll regret it later..Im really not having fun...

and then, i'm watching full house, and this guy is giving jesse some advice, saying that he was chasing his pot of gold and forgot about what is really important, and really makes him a success...and i'm still thinking, what is success? right now, I just want to get this done...but it is not working out...and just dunno what to do....

just my rant...
 
Have you ever considered that maybe college isn't for you? I mean, it's a little late in the game at this point, I guess, but maybe you would feel better if you took a year off at a real job or something. You don't have to do what everybody else does because that's what you're supposed to do.
 
Take it easy. Dont get crazy over it.

If you need to take a break, take it... You are either gonna pass or fail and studying until you cannot think straight is not gonna change that. What is is that you are taking that is giving you so much trouble?

And if push came to shove... cant you just take a year out, go get a job and finish your studies after? Or during classes at night?
 
"Speaking of HP, well, if you ever feel completely worthless, even if you are completely worthless, cheer up. You could be Carly Fiorina. How would you feel if you got fired one day, and the next day, the world said the company you headed was worth about $4 billion more without you than with you? That's certified less than worthless."

I think I'd feel fine with the severance package she got what was it $21million?
 
yea...I mean, I really dont want to take off from school, because the truth is that I *want* to go to school...I want to finish it....and I want to find a job when I am done with it...It really sucks because it's I feel like I am at the finish line, but I just am not able to pass it....
 
hey, don't give up... no matter what. the game's over when you quit... so whatever happens, go down fighting!

btw, what's your major?

good luck

Well, then take a step back and take a breather.

It will all focus better if you are not in the middle of it all getting drowned by it. If it comes to a choice of taking some time off and going back, or failing... take time off. I am sure that you do want to finish, but dont make it so you start to get so unhappy and frustrated that you hate it.
If you are giving it your all, and it is not ok... take a step back... breathe and relax... try something else.
 
Just step back and relax man. Take a few days off and go somewhere and just CHILL.
The world will seem better when you return. Just make sure you can afford to take the days off in the first place.

If your GPA is as bad as the OP states, don't even bother trying to get into Grad School...
 
Just stick it out for what it's left of the semester, you'll do alright. Remember, when you feel that you are giving 100 %, try to give 110% 🙂

The best of luck to you

Regards

join the club...I hit that hole almost 2 years ago, and I'm just now working my way out of it (finished college in december; official graduation happens in May). At least you still have your girlfriend; mine broke up with me last April. I'm still not quite sure what I want to do or where I want to go, but at least I'm done with school (for now; I could go back, take a few classes, and finish another degree or two). I plan to get a job, and my own place, if the pay is good enough, and take it from there. The key is simply to take everything one day at a time.

well, I mean, I talked to the grad advisor, and they told me that they can admit me on a conditional basis.......and I calculated that it was possible.....if I do good this semester...

If you think it's rough now, just wait.
