There's no point in regretting shit like that. I would've fucked up my life anyway. I never really liked people and I never had any ambition to make anything of myself anyway. I'm shit because of who I am, not because of the hobbies I was drawn to.

I'm on like 60k and kind of flunked my way through engineering. It will get better though, just gotta stick to it and will be up to 70, 80, 100 in 4 or 5 years. Also no, I don't associate myself with any anime bullshit

I couldn't get work for almost 2 years after I graduated. Ended up moving countries to find work.

Just have to be extremely persistent, try to get an application every day if not more, just keep sending and sending, and make sure they are good quality applications.
