I didn't really drop out but when I finished my software engineering course I played on Jump servers on CS:S and Gmod for about half a year long and after that went on to mechanical engineering. I eventually dropped out of mech.eng 2 years into the study cause it was too much and I just wanted to play battlefield 4 all day long

It clicks at about 63 dB so yeah it's fucking horrifying. It clicks over conversations and in my head it's even louder since it reverberates off my bones and through my skull. I'm afraid it might end up giving me tinnitus eventually or cause hearing loss since it's a constant 24/7 click.

I'm surprised I never did. I did tank some grades for TERA, PoE, and Aion though, but in the end if I wasn't playing those games I'd have been randomly procrastinating instead.

I suppose I may have, long ago, dropped out of my math and physics classes in high school because of WoW though. I couldn't be arsed to spend hours doing homework and I thought I was retarded because it was taking me more than the 15 minutes I was used to in elementary and middle school.

I spoke to some literal genius friend of mine years later and he said he took an hour or two every day doing those too. He's doing theoretical physics now and got a 4 year grant for his PhD just based on his grades and speed at which he got his master's. Jesus.

I went into IT instead.

Think about it this way. Every month you get delayed is a month of potential income going down the drain. Every few months it a potential salary increase you could have made and every year or so is a potential promotion that again comes with a bigger paycheck.

To be fair, I doubt anyone's going to be roleplaying on ragnarok online twenty years from now. If he had skipped on that, he probably never would have had another chance again.

So maybe it is worth it. You now have good, fond ERP memories to look back on, instead of living out a wagecuck childhood so you could retire a few months earlier.

I've never failed a course because of a game but I've procrastinated to the point of "If I don't cut this shit out then I WILL fuck up"
Powering out work in a week that could be comfortably done over the course of a month wasn't fun. It sounds stupid as fuck but making a schedule really does help.

never. I failed math because I've always been horrible at math, and explicitly asked to be allowed to take a math course over the period of summer classes so I could more efficiently dedicate myself to it, but they told me "you'll have to take it with the rest of your courses" and of course, I couldn't focus on all of them, and I failed, theyp ulled my scholarships, and I left college.

I'm working as a plumber and making $23/hr now though, that's kinda cool.

90% of the stuff they teach you in college is a scam though.Unless you are looking to specialize in something having to basically sign up for 2 more years of "general education" using money you dont have fucking sucks. It wouldn't be so bad if you could actually live off minimum wage but the systems been rigged and now it feels next to impossible to make a decent living unless you go to some sort of schooling.
College used to be for people who had an interest in improving their education or genuinely wanting to learn something now it really feels like college is used as a floodgate for more practical higher end jobs and some sort of method to keep money in the middle/high class.

I really dont think its fair to force someone to gamble with debts just for a CHANCE that it could pay off in the future

Go to community college for gen ed, transfer over to a 4 year for actual courses

Or just finish an AA with certs at a community college for like 10% of the price of a 4 year school.

It honestly sounds like youre trying to justify your choice of not going.
Just because you dont go doesnt mean you cant not apply yourself, if you don't,
you need to be getting certs or making connections. NEET life doesn't work

The system is fucking awful, but honestly community colleges are generally pretty manageable. Spend a grand or so a semester and a lot of them will offer trade jobs that only take 2 years. Its a drop in the bucket considering the fact you get a decent paying job out of it.

I'm just saying you had more options than spend 15k+ a semester at a 4 year college but you chose to not take them. You can even do certs online through self study, or just make connections in general. It's lame but that's life,
honestly if you don't want to work there's not much other options out there.

Never failed courses, but Warframe alongside doing too many courses at once,

Got my degree since then, and actually had decent grades for the last two years.
I also got roped into Travian one year of high school, and focusing too much on that tanked grades in a few of my classes. No idea why, though, as that game ended up not being fun at all to play.

Literally most of the first world. Germany, France, Sweden (YES), Finland, Denmark, and hell, most of the EU short of the obvious poverty states like Greece offer free welfare.

Most people would give up in a situation like yours, but there is no way I'm letting you do that. You're going to become the underground phenomenon known as "steel heart". Thanks to the constant ticking you're basically walking around with the world's most consistent drummer, he's going to help you become a star. You'll play a few live performances in shitty venues and never explain where the ticking is coming from. Afterwards you'll release your debut album, "Steel Heart". Nobody is going to listen to it unless it's King Crimson tier, so don't worry too much about quality, you're trying to figure out your sound.

Your next album will be "Heart of Iron, Soul of Gold" which will be a series of blues songs about your past, never explaining anything clearly but dropping hints. Some people may take notice at this point, most are going to be wondering if you're some sort of android fetishist.

Your third album will be "Box Shaped Heart", a 3-4 track Nirvana homage/parody

Album 4 will have you finding yourself a crew and recording "Major [your name]'s Metal Hearts Club" extra points if the rest of your band are in the same situation as you.

Now you start going around the city you live in and building up a live name for yourself. People are super weirded out at first but quickly come to appreciate your rock solid rhythm. Once you've built up a fan base you work on album 5, "Sometimes, I Heartly Know You" with a lot of sad and deep and symbolic and metaphorical songs.

At this point you and your band should be popular underground artists, this is where you start flinging shit around and making everyone in the band mad at each other. You play live with tensions increasing every show, release your 6th album, "Steel your Heart" and break up the band. It's one of them double meanings, get it? Anyway Steel your Heart actually gets a bit of mainstream recognition and you live off royalties until you die or run out of money and need to do a solo tour in 20 years.

Create a FA and Tumblr. Upload everything to e621. Don't bother with other websites.
Post daily. Always have requests open. The amount of requests you get will gauge how many commissions you get.
Shill everywhere you can. A lot of huge artists (Boogie, PurpleKecleon, etc) started on fucking /vp/ of all places. Drawthreads are your friend.
Discord is getting huge now. Join as many communities as you can and post your work there.
Getting commissions has very little to do with skill and more with volume. Once you think you're ready, just post that you're taking commissions. This will mostly be done through FA.
If you're not getting enough commissions, lower your prices. Don't get proudy. If you end up having to charge only $1 for a full color before you get even a single bite, then just accept that that's where you're at until you start getting more. Once you're pulling in more commission requests than you can keep up with, increase the prices.
Only draw porn. Clean art is a dead end market. Do fetishes. If you can animate or if you can make a game, congrats, you can skip most of these steps since that alone puts you ahead of the pack.
Do NOT open a Patreon unless you can consistently pull in $75+ commissions.

Working out is fucking easy though. Feels great once you look forward to the dopamine rush. I'm even looking forward to daily jogging now too.

Dark Souls 1 on release.
I failed Accounting 202 since there was 2-3 hours of homework nightly, 7 days a week.
Still got my B.B.A. on time though. It was a bitch to take 1 summer class to make up for it, but in the end it all worked out.

What felt great was to take 3 days off my big boy adult job when Overwatch came out so I could play with my NEET friends.

>weed robbed me of a year
Same thing happened to me. I spent about $7,000 on partying during my freshman year of college. Given, my classes were all entry level general credits so I made straight A's, but I was a mess and fell into depression, lost my girlfriend and most of my family's respect, but it's possible to bounce back.
Best thing to get myself back on track is exercise, so I thank 2011 /fit/ for helping me straighten my life out

Failed a course in physiology and immunology because I played WoW on Kronos. To be fair there were numerous factors, but being up late grinding and then skipping class the next day certainly had it's effect. Was pretty fun though, and I could retake the exam before the next semester began so I don't really regret it.

I failed an entire semesters worth because of a mix of games, yugioh, and general retardedtry. But then I got my shit together and graduated with a dual major, minor, and 90% A's the rest of my time there.

there are two types of people in this world, people who want a result and do nothing to work towards it, and people who do.

A friend of mine at college (who had massive tuition discounts because his mom was an administrator there, and it was a hella expensive, good private school) was big, BIG into Halo - this was around 2010 - and he stopped going to class to keep his rank up, playing all day. He dropped out midway through junior year. To focus on Halo.

He was in one of the top ten teams in the country and won like $15k at tournaments, except earning 15,000 in two years is actually poverty-level.

Guy's been a pizza delivery driver for seven years, trying to get a BA at a garbage community college on the side. Still spends all his time/money on DOTA and shit. The rest of us got pro jobs in cities, went to grad school, etc. Depressing to think about it.

this is worst feel, because you don't know if you're passing because you're smart or because the classes are simple and you're wasting away in something too easy for you. Alternatively you wonder if you were to actually try, but when you do nothing would improve. So you don't end up putting any effort in as to avoid the harsh truth that you've already reached your full potential as a lazy, mediocre student.

I graduated, but never applied myself and have little to show for it. Now I've just got a degree with nothing to back it up, and even entry level positions I'm my field want nothing to do with me. Now I'm saving up to go back and get a different degree. Apply yourself in school kids.

I didn't.

I skipped out on wasting thousands of dollars for more school to work, worked for 17 years, saving everything I could so I can sit comfortably where I am now. I still make money, but I don't do shit except play video games and take care of things around the house.

I didn't fail anything, but in retrospect, I skipped a metric fuckton of classes for WoW years ago. You could look at my transcript and see when I started getting sucked in to WoW by my grades, which caused my overall GPA to be somewhat shit. I'm pretty sure my law school GPA ended up being higher because by then I had moved on from WoW.

Thats the thing, I would be automatically accepted into the comp sci programs at some other colleges, but this one is like THE college.
I really don't know what to do.
If I take Uni Studies there I would be able to take a minor specifically for 3D printing. Since its the only school around that offers it, this is one of the only ways to get into it for that college, its a relatively new field, and all signs point to it being the next big thing its an extremely tempting offer. I feel comp sci is kind of flooded now and is becoming a lot less valuable, but its hard to tell how valuable any of these choices will be.
Anything I go with will be a gamble. Of course after I get hired for the first time its not like my major would matter. I hardly know anyone who works in a field specific to their degree.
I'll have to ask around more.

He also did you another good service: the first MMO that you play will be a magical experience.

Or you'll be so accustomed to multiplayer games that you'll see that it's pretty much and endless grind.

I've evolved into what I like to call "ascended procrastination" where I pay attention in class and do all of my work both well and ASAP so I can get back to the shit I care about.

That's not really procrastination, that's getting shit done efficiently and remembering things the first time around via hard work so you don't have to do hard work later.

If I had a girl like Nozomi in my life to encourage me I might have tried harder.

All I had were my drug addict parents who didn't care whether I passed or failed.

Not bad, though it's highly dependent on the instructor you get. My first one still remembered what it was meant to be a student, and was also going through grad school at the time. Thus, most of her lectures were very concise and meaty, and recording them made learning test material and general application very easy.

My advice to you is to record lectures, and learn drug classes and suffixes. Stuff like how beta blockers tend to have "-olol" in their names and all that.

As far as general advice goes: you must know how to study efficiently and multitask. People who read the entire book to study for a nursing exam will almost certainly fail unless you have some sort of photographic/eidetic memory.

Also, lab practicals/exams where you demonstrate nursing skills are like 95% muscle memory. If you have spare time and access to a nursing lab, go there and practice your skills under instructor or senior student supervision. I practically lived in the nursing skills lab whenever I wasn't studying, and that helped a LOT when I had to do my lab practicals.
