I'm doing horrible in school... the only class I'm doing really well in is Psych II, Russian, and US history... I can't seem to get motivated for Econ and I haven't understood Accounting from day one (and no one has been able to help, it just won't process in my brain, I sit in class looking like an idiot)... I'm really unmotivated, I hardly ever go to Econ or accounting... I feel like I'll never make it in life and I should just kill myself...I'll never succeed if I fail school!!! Mom mom was nice to pay for the semester and I feel like I'm just wasting her money by not getting a 4.0...I feel like such a terrible person and I'll never amount to anything
What do you mean? You can always provide for yourself. I'm not honestly suggesting you drop out... unless you are okay with the fact that you might have to forge your own path a bit. School isn't for everyone. I plan on having a plenty happy life without having wasted four years of it.
I agree...but I don't want want to struggle (regardless of the fact that I already am). Most good paying jobs require a college degree, unless you land a dream job
I understand completely. I just recently decided to not continue trying to get a standard 4 year degree. I realize that I might be giving up on certain "luxuries", but I feel a lot of it is a bit of a facade. Chances are you will find your niche in life and will be happy with or without a degree. Do you have any skills or talents you could utilize to make money? You also don't have to be enrolled right this moment. If you can take time away from it and return later that might be good for you.
Well...I missed the class drop deadline...My current major at school is business then I'm going to finish the other 2 years with Russian studies/language, I really love speaking, writing, learning Russian As for things I like to do...I like to design clothing, I'm a really good artist-I can paint and draw, it's my natural talent. I'm good at helping others. I remember at one point I wanted to model, but I'm way to short. I'm good with makeup...And love yoga & meditation.
Learn a trade. I dropped out of high school, then out of college. I'm now going to learn a trade... Massage therapy. Of course you could always just try harder in school. You don't need a 4.0 to get a degree. My advise, go to class!!! Why pay, why suffer, if you are not even going to try. If you really feel like you are going to fail these classes, then it is important to your future to withdraw from the classes before you get an F on your record. You can take them again if you withdraw now, you can't if you get an F. As far a unmotivation, that is common since you have been going to school since you were 5 or 6. A decade and a half of school will really take a toll on you. But the unmotivation could really stem from the fact that college may not be right for you. Its not for everyone. After this semester you should really decide whether continuing with college is right for you. If you decide that college is right for you, try picking your classes with an adviser. They will be able to tell you all about the classes you think you might like, and you can decide if those classes are going to interest you. Try talking to Seniors in your college and ask them about any "EZpass" classes they have taken. Classes that take little effort to pass. For example, for sociology i had the option of a traditional soch class, or an art class, or a history of film class, or a psychology class, etc. I chose the art class because all I had to do was make an effort and I could pass. No tests, no nothing. I just had to show up, and draw, and I could pass. Keeping a positive attitude and an open mind is important. Good Luck in what ever you choose.
As for trades...glass blowing/glass art sounds like the most amazing thing ever. Theres a place near my house that has glass art/glass blowing classes
You might not get your money back, but im sure if you go to your teacher, or adviser and plead your case, you will be able to withdraw from the class. I was able to withdraw from a class with only a few days to go in the class. An F is not good.... A withdraw is much better.
I can withdraw...but no money back. However, if I did that I'm going to end up taking the classes over again because I need them for my major
