Drunk and high, got a 3 o'clock lecture and that's it for today.

Trying to cut down on weed but it's how I cope. Some people fuck strangers, some people bury themselves in work. I'm all out now though, some detox might be good for me.

I start school today at a community college

First time Ive been in a school since 2013. So its gonna be a new experience.

First semester at a new university, I made maybe one acquaintance?

People either already have a friend group or just ignore each other.

Are we going to make it, lads?

>>34701809
Different semester, same old shite. Want to drop out but I don't have a plan of what to do once I do so.

I always do my honework before the deadline but still just sleep past my alarm and never hand it in. It's the most infuriating thing.

>>34701943
Of course m8, we're all gonna make it.

>>34701809
Still no friends and definitely no gf :(

It's kind of depressing, actually. When I actually do schoolwork for a few hours and then go back to 4chins, I realize I haven't really missed anything in those hours. Really puts in perspective just how much time I waste everyday, refreshing threads and matching reaction images to posts, perfecting my memetic grammar, all to garner the attention of Anonymous masses who will forget whatever I write within minutes.

Remember, 4chan is always right where you left it. Do your homework.

Educaters really miss out on an opportunity to teach how muscles get big with hormones and good diet. Could have encouraged many young people to take up excercise for health and social gain.

Fuck university, man. I was looking forward to it after high school. Huge let down.

First year:
> That kid who said they learnt ruby on rails when they were 6 (they're 20, RoR came out in 2005) writing spaghetti code in programming class.
> I get paired up with them (we had 'buddies' to do projects with throughout the semester).
> They never finish their sections of the project, so I have to do it for them, otherwise we'll get 50% max.
> We get a HD (barely) and I know it was all my work. I fucking hate this cunt.
> He becomes popular, ends up getting a position in the programming club we're in.
> I'm never acknowledged.

Second year:
> Stop giving a fuck.
> No friends.
> Still a virgin.
> Eats alone during breaks.
> Literally nothing happens.

I start third year soon. Anyone have advice for me. I don't know if I want to drop University or just continue becoming more depressed in exchange for learning what I'm passionate about.

>>34705063
You aren't at uni to enjoy yourself. You're there to get a degree so you can get a job and live comfortably. Stop worrying about social bullshit.

>>34705063
That is literally how it's supposed to be. Use that time to make connections and achieving things that will help you get noticed by people you want to work for. Oh and don't put much effort in group shit. Go solo.

This letter is to notify you that allegations of a violation of the Student Code of Conduct have been made against you. On January 19, 2017 you allegedly violated parts of the following sections of Article IV: Guidelines for Student Conduct:
Section 01 - Violating college board policies, administrative regulations, or procedures,
Section 08 - Disrupting the learning environment in class or other college sponsored events or operations,
Section 09 - Failing to comply with the directives of college officials or law enforcement officers

I turned in a quiz where I answered the question about how to get the audience's attention by saying "Hold something big, heavy, and dangerous looking in your hand."

They ambushed me outside one of my classes with campus security and posted my name and my face on their website. Then they sent out an email to every single one of the students and faculty there linking to it, and they said "It will remain up there depending on the results of our investigation", which is code for "It will stay up there even if we decide you did nothing wrong, just like all the other people on there who we cleared".

>find out what I have to study

just start smoking weed. weed is the most robot drug and you will immediately make friends. it's stupid but human interaction is stupid and based on purely symbolic gestures. smoke with the building stoners every once in a while and you will see behind the normie outer crust to the person inside. this is the secret, everybody is a piece of shit on the outside because they are playing the game, but as you get to know them there is something admirable inside. i'm still pretty much an outsider to this day but drugs and drinking were the shoe in the door for me with adult friendship. it's a lonely world, a robot's dignity is not worth remaining lonely.

>>34705953
Je te soutiens, camarade.

I was doing a french prepa aswell (MPSI), because my HS teachers kind of forced me into doing it. I for one, didn't have what it takes to survive in there, so after 1.5 years I just quit and switched to a comfy applied maths license.

After a prepa, the material feels so easy, I can get top marks without even showing up for class.
Plenty of time to go to bars with all the /lit/ students at my Uni. /lit/ girls are much less judging and pretentious than ones studying other subjects.
>plenty of time to read philosophy and stuff to impress said grills.

>get invited to parties
>"oh wow anon, you're doing maths and all but you're still so cultured"

basically tell yourself after these 3 months your life will be like this, except you'll have a good career assured.

At least some of them look cool as fuck. Honestly one of the coolest buildings I've seen.

>>34708686
It is nice only if you don't study there.

>>34708540
Also what is your major and what do you recommend? Something really easy?

>>34708655
There are no muslims in my uni city, but there are lots of liberals. Honestly, liberals are usually the nicest people so I don't mind.

The whole "lmao swedistan muslim rape" meme is so tired at this point. I lived in Malmo, the most immigrant dense city in Sweden and it's not even bad. There are some areas that are not so nice, but I could walk anywhere and still feel safe. They just shoot gang members and the reason so much rape is reported is because Sweden has a much broader definition of rape that other countries legally. Leave my country alone we are not on the brink of collapse or anything.

>>34708738
I study physics. If you want something simple, I've heard the Economics program is really easy to get through. The highest grade is hard, but to get a degree is easy. I know people who almost never open their course books and just study a couple of days before exams. Honestly doing that if I fail physics.

Otherwise the usual easy majors are easy here too.

College is fun as hell. My degree (business and sports management, probably gonna go to law school in a few years) isn't the most profitable, and law school is probably gonna bankrupt me, but I'm having a hell of a time here.

You have to give us more to go off of, why have you offered up such a wide range of subjects? Rough plans for your future (even if it's as vague as - go into 'research')?

You say they all interest you equally, have you done any background reading on the subject i.e pirated an undergrad textbook?

Honestly, me personally? I'd strike philosophy off the list and finance. They can be minored or if you're a britbong physics/CS/maths + philosophy at usually 75/25 split is quite common. Albeit, philosophy is something you should really only do if you're really interested in it.

Physics and Maths are great degrees because they can be applied to a whole range of subjects i.e analytical finance but you tend to have to do a little bit more training for certain industry specific qualifications i.e a ME grad will have benefits to becoming a chartered ME in comparison to maths. If you want to go into theoretical physics it's considered Phd or bust. Are you that interested in physics alone?

CS/ME both give you a good math foundation and are direct route of entries into good paying jobs. I'd argue, personally, that if forced to pick out of the two I'd pick CS as the skills learnt are broader and easier to incorporate into side projects i.e your own small time webdesign company. Although, you could make the argument that a lot of the practical side of CS could be self taught.

That would leave you with mechanical engineering if you just want a respected degree that'll hold your handle, and feed you into a career easily.

just pretend like you were really social in high school. Nobody knows how you were in high school so you can basically claim anything (within reason,obviously) and it'll be plausible. Also, try to get to know people over the summer so when school starts you'll have a head start in terms of being social.

Thanks for the reply. You gave some new insight.

I have literally no plans for my future. I want to make enough money to live comfortably and I want to work with something I find interesting enough to learn about. That's why I picked them. I also have a desire to "create" things. I think CS and ME are good for fulfilling that.

I don't know if I have the drive and dedication to go into research with physics, but I love learning about it.

Pirating undergrad books is probably what I will do. See what interests me most after that. I just hope the difference in quality of the books will influence me somehow.

I can understand crossing philosophy, but why finance? It seems like a good finance/economics education leads to a lot of jobs.

I am really interested in philosophy, but it's the one I'm least certain about. It doesn't really give any qualifications. I love reading and discussing philosophy though.

Many are. Some have programs for swedish and english that are separate. Physics, which I study, is offered this way. The first year is split up in one english class and one swedish. After the first year they are fused and everything is in english.

The goal of most of the departments is to be completely international. There are a lot of foreign students here too.

I striked it off due to your listed interest in maths/physics/engineering/CS so you'd have the statistics covered common in Finance and Economics and the written content would easily be covered by either self study (same with philosophy) or as a minor.

A demand for heavy maths skills alongside computer skills is growing massively in the financial sector esp. where the money's to be found.

Have you tried stims? Doesn't even have to be adderal/meth. The stims can really get you to focus and overcome a hurdle. I remember snorting my first few caffeine pills like they were yesterday.

Yeah I've tried almost everything on the ADD meds spectrum. The stimulant ones fuck me up emotionally and physically and the non-stimulant ones don't do anything other than make me angry.

At 7 years old, the idiot doctor my parents had me see set me up on the legal highest dosage of Adderal you can give a person. I don't know why the fuck they'd do that to a kid but I think that permanently fucked up my brain's ability to handle stims in general. I wish they worked the way they're supposed to, but I really only get the negative side effects.

I'm an idiot and somehow cut my post in half
>What can I expect?
It's pretty shit, it's a commuter school (that majorly lacks parking) so there's really not a social atmosphere everyone just goes to classes then goes home, which means making friends is pretty hard and it means clubs have low attendance and are mostly just attended by little cliques who aren't interested in meeting new people. Most professors in the cs and math departments (major before I changed) are massive dicks, arts professors are generally much more chill though, and language professors tend to be the best.

The town around the college is pretty alright, there's plenty of shopping places and good beer stores (very few liquor stores though), and there's a ton of bars if that's your thing but same as on campus don't expect people to be too social. Also be expecting literally constant construction both on and off campus.

>tfw you have to go back and replace all the times you wrote "nigger" in your historical essay as a joke with yourself

I vary the spelling sometimes (nig nog, nugger, nigga, etc.) so I'm paranoid that I miss one. Motivates me to revise the whole paper though.

It's okay senpai.
2nd year. I'm 25 and started college last year at a community college. Started going to university last semester. I live with mom and commute to school. I just go to my lectures everyday, spend any breaks or free time in the library then go home after last lecture.

Haven't made a single friend, don't know the name of anyone in any of my classes except for the 40 year old guy who is my lab partner. I can't relate to any of the fucking children here. Honestly, I hate being surrounded by by 18-20 year olds. They're stupid as fuck and annoying and have the audacity to cry about shit while their parents are footing their living expenses.

Having lived in the "real" world and had to come back because I failed at independence wage slaving in retail is galling. But whatever. Even though I took 5 years off school it's honestly pretty easy. I got mostly As, a B or two here and there.

If I didn't suffer (still, all this time) from crippling depression and insomnia I'd be easily 4.0 every semester. I don't give a fuck, though. I just want out of here and on to grad school or job.

>>34714151
>>inb4 meme degree
You shouldn't feel out of place on that at least, engineering/computer majors have their own campus and facilities five miles away so after first year pretty much everyone you see is in what /r9k/ would call a meme degree. As for RTVF I've only met like 2 people majoring in it but I hear it's alright there's a semesterly student film festival so it seems well supported. Just go in with low expectations on the social front so that when/if it is better for you it's a pleasant surprise rather than a depressing let down. I'm in a meme degree as well now, international studies/business, because I failed calc 2 too many times.

Doing ok, lots fo work relative to last semester but it gives me something to bond over when talking to people. I found a place where I can get work done and casually talk to people so it's nice. Haven't really had a conversation with someone who wanted to talk to me in a while so it was real nice.
