For the past couple I have been in a real rut, getting to University was supposed to be the real turning point in my life, but I feel totally disenfranchised with the whole idea. I hate the university I go to, a lot of the people I have met there I have little time for, and my course revolves around a field that I can see myself ever having a future in.
For the past couple of years I have jumped to the next stepping stone in my relatively young life simply because the path has been laid out before me already. With no real passion for academics and no real interest in a particular field of study, I am at a loss trying to explain why I even wanted to go to University when I have no real future goals in mind.
My friends are all going away next year, meaning that I will be without the only group of people that make me feel somewhat happy. My hobbies and interests don't reflect my academics at all and I have no real hope of breaking into them professionally.
Some of my friends possess genuine passion for their fields of study and professional pursuits and I am pretty fucking jealous to say the least. I am always being told that 'one day you will find your calling', but when I can't even be bothered to get out of bed on my worse days, is there any hope?
Thanks if you read this /adv/, any advice is much appreciated
Your university has councillors for this. Talk to one.
