Nothing. Finished my final project and am just waiting to present it.

>What's due tomorrow and why aren't you working on it?
Programming assignment to just make 3 classes with a bunch of vectors and maps due tonight. I really don't feel like working on it, but I know getting something in that works is better than getting nothing in or sending in something that doesn't work.
Will probably scrape by later on, since I'll still get credit for adding in some of the methods if not all.
I have work and tests almost every week, so I always get to my days off and don't feel like doing anything at all. I wish they had a late penalty, I really hate this do or die shit.
I felt relieved because I got notice that I won't have a test this thursday.
But I'm worried now because I have one I didn't know I had for wednesday.

What uni you in? Most universities have hundreds of different societies, surely there's something that interests you. You could easily join after christmas, that's when a lot of exchange students etc join them too. Alternatively you could also join a sports club, it doesn't matter if you suck especially if it's a small club. My uni's field hockey team is unisex and has like 15-20 active members.

Why am I so shit at college? Last year as a freshman was easy but this year I feel so lazy and unmotivated. Next semester I plan to turn myself around because I know this is what I want to do with my life, but how do you guys that are in uni manage to get yourself to study/motivate yourself?
>>24292197
>tfw you can study for hours that one subject you like and are good at but can't force yourself to study others that are keking you

You need to have a dream or goal in mind. When I had ambition I excelled, I also had hope. Once that was taken from me everything turned into a chore. It isn't difficult (only one class requires more effort than usual) but I don't care anymore, it's pointless to me now that my intended future is gone along with the people in it.
If you are sure you know this is what you want the motivation should be easy to find. Just make sure it wasn't a motivation people made up for you, or it will come back and bite you in the ass.
>>24292294

>>24290163
almost 3 hours later...
have not gotten out of bed...
>>24292328
>Is that's what happened to you?
Yes. I realized that I abandoned my dream because the only way I could get positive attention from others was by being a good, career motivated ambitious student. Typically this lead to 3 career paths: doctor, lawyer, or engineer. Guess which one I fell for? All the boasting and ideas I had took over who I really was. Not saying they were unnatainable, it's just that it wasn't about me or what I wanted. I never knew what I wanted I just went along with what others thought was amazing.
I always had a rough time during my education, so I took the title "Teachers Pet" with pride, I would get so close to faculty, boasting and planning, that was how I got the emotional validation as a human being.
I wanted to be an artist, but I threw myself into STEM. STEM was fun, but I realize now that it's not what I want. I don't want to sit in my room coding (as interesting as it is), I want to draw, create art in various forms, even literature.
So now approximate 8 thousand dollars was thrown away for me to attend an engineering program, and I don't want it anymore. But I don't have the support where my parents would say it's okay and tell me to follow my dream.
An entire year of college, an entire life, wasted. Now I am aimless and empty, I have programming homework to complete, and I don't even want to. I am trying to salvage who I am, and so many people have put their effort into me becoming "the engineer" that I am going to disappoint every single one of them. It's scary. I even had a family member (who is an engineer) give me money as a gift for college, but I am not what she expected me to be. Nobody knows who I am and it's going to be horrifying to see that who they thought I was disappeared.
Sorry for the rant, I just want you to understand that when people say "do what you love no matter what" they aren't joking.
>>24292281
>skipping classes
the easiest thing someone can do in college is to sit their asses for 3 hours a week in a classroom and takes notes of important shit
if you can't even manage to do that, you deserve to fail and you probably don't like what you're studying anyway, thus wasting time and money

Sometimes it's not so easy. I know I have skipped classes countless of times just FOR OTHER CLASSES. It's literally one class gives a bulk of work and the resources you need are in the college so now you need to make a choice. Take some notes or print this out. For me I have a 2 hour commute, so imagine losing 4 hours of your day sitting on a damn bus. I even do my reading assignments on the bus and train that is how much time wasted.

All nighter tonight finishing up paper, presentation, and demonstration all night for Network Security and MAYBE try to get some math studying in before I present monday morning due to the fact that I have a big exam Tuesday to study for and if I fuck it up, there goes my GPA, which makes finding an internship a hell lot more difficult with anything below a 3.0.

How fucked am I anons? Any good math wizards out there that can calculate what I need to score on the final to pass with a 70? What's the lowest I can score in order to simply pass this course?
I will feel so ashamed if I end up failing this math course, especially since my parents always ask how I'm doing and I tell them everything is fine. I would have done much better on the first and second exams for safety if I had known I'd fuck up this badly on the third exam...

Because this way you won't have a degree in faggotry. You enrolled in STEM so fuck you, you wanted it.
>>24292997
you'd need 25.3/30 on your last exam to pass with a 70%.
if the lowest you need to pass is 50%, then you need 5.3/30. if it's 60%, then you need 15.3/30.
>>24292589
ok 25 minutes later its time to ge tto work
goodbye r9k
>>24293150
I need the degree in faggotry to get jobs related to that faggotry. I was also planning on minoring in business or something.
>>24292653
I have to say I disagree anon, most people that go into or would like to go into art can't make a living off it - you need a lot of people following and supporting an artists work to support just one artist after all.
If you're one of the lucky few that gets paid to do something you love, be it art or science or whatever else, that's fantastic, but for the rest of the population there is no shame in doing something you tolerate that pays well enough to support your hobbies on your down time. And desu turning your hobby into your job can ruin it for some people, so depending on your personality it may well be the optimal path for you
If you go the second pathway then the biggest thing is to save and invest way more than your peers - if you invest half your take home pay by keeping your lifestyle frugal you can retire in 16 years rather than the usual 40 to 50, and you can get that number down even more if you really go serious on the frugality.
>>24292653
>>24293216
And I guess the unstated risk of attempting and failing to be an artist is a much more wageslave-tier job and little prospect of an early retirement.
>>24288074
nothing and nothing... bout to play vidya with my bros at different colleys
>>24293216
>>24293255
I've always known the risks to being an artist. I know there's a chance that I won't make it big time, and probably will get stuck in some crappy office job sketching out diagrams or advertisements.
For me art was something I could do wholeheartedly. For my computer technology course I spent an entire week drawing up a 21 page comic for a project. Regardless of it being for work and mandatory I did it because I loved to do it. So in my case it would probably work better than forcing myself to do something I don't enjoy as much.
I also wasn't planning to limit my arts to just drawing, I'm actually an insanely good writer, it comes naturally to me and I've also honed it. Might as well try to expand on those skills. Also when it comes to frugality, I'm the king of it. I probably won't spend much money unless it's art supplies or some games. I don't get out much, and when it comes to things like retirement, depending on the work I'll get myself into would be the greatest factor to if I actually want to retire.
But in the case of others, if money is not that much of a big priority and you're willing to take life as it goes, I say do whatever you want to do.
>tfw feel like you chose the wrong school
I'm in media production, and I chose a tech college over a liberal arts university and a regular D2 university. It's alright so far, but there's no film or tv production course in my curriculum, and that's what I want to do. My school is more for being a media guy for some shit company.

I fell for the Engineering meme too. I don't want to be an engineer. I just went to uni because I thought I'd be the shame of my family if I didn't. Everyone has such high hopes for me. Success at uni is my main source of personal worth.
I feel like I let myself down.
Not uni, but I have a huuuuge test in my language school on Monday.
And right now is 9:30AM on Monday.
And I didn't study.

I fell for the Computing Science meme. My thought process was that I had to do something that made money to impress my parents, and something in a respectable field, rather than art which is what I wanted to do. Then I failed. Then, because I was suicidal at the prospect of working and carrying all this disappointment on my back, I went back to uni and passed, despite literally not having done high school maths.
Now I'm an unemployed loser. Follow your dreams.

All together, that gives me a hour to work.
>>24294353
Exactly. Recently my father said he "didn't force his kids to go to Uni". He didn't have to. If I didn't I would have been the only one in the family not to do so.
I picked a degree which might lead to the highest paid job I could get with my skills, and went for that. Everyone around me is so much more motivated than I am. I have no career aspirations; I chose this on the promise of a well-paid job.
I am embarrassed to say my dream is tobe a gamedev and not starve to death. I fear it's only achievable as a hobby, but if I worked as an engineer full-time I probably could not muster the time to make anything worthwhile.
>>24294702
Dunno, lol.

Got work for a property law tutorial tomorrow and an admin law tutorial on Tuesday that i havent even looked at. Not too worried though i jsut need to bullshit my way through 2 hours each.
This is actually the most comfortable ive ever felt at uni. Had a group essay handed in last week and I'm really hapy with the quality of the paper and I had absolutely zero issues with the whole "group" aspect of it. Only snag was this girl getting a bit unhappy when we decided to cut out one of her paragraphs but she realised pretty quickly we had to cut something.
Last year was awful, I didn't enjoy it and i got bad grades. This year I actually enjoy the work and ive been more active in societies, especially the debating society and I've somehow been doing well at it.
>>24294427
>Girls go "woo" at night and I don't know why.
>>24294742
Don't be embarrassed. There really is nothing "superior" about getting a degree in life. Most college students and graduates don't leave the high school mentality. Outside of careers and outward appearance, college is just another way to kill time and stall the pressure for a job. Why do you think people leave college and stay unemployed? Because we are taught that a degree makes us better than others without a degree, yet there are people without a high school education becoming multimillionaires.
Just remember college has no age limit, it was meant as a congregation of knowledge and scholars, not the cash cow it has become now. You have probably 50-80 more years of life, college only takes up a small part of it, feel free to leave and come back anytime.

Thanks, anon. I'm almost finished my degree. After unpaid work-placement (and realizing how close I was to leaving the comfy academic womb) my attitude changed drastically. I realize now that Uni is business first, education second, and I fell for it. Starting to think one of Uni's major draws is as you said, put job pressure on hold without feeling like a waste of other people's time and moneywhich is a feeling that doesn't last forever.
I should have just joined the work-force straight out of HS, and only come to Uni with a purpose in mind. I'd probably have enough to put a deposit on a house by now. But I must pretend to live life without regrets.

Yes but it seems that in order to follow the art career you gotta be social (know the right people) and be pro-active... People like us just can't do well in that world... We are better of with STEM degrees where we get to work in offices where you just gotta do what you are told.

Instead of being social through your being why don't you be social through your art? Catch the attention of others through self advertisement, do well enough and you might get a following.
It won't guarentee you some amazing success, but it will get you a bit of self satisfaction and practice of what you like to do. Also try looking into design jobs, those are also office oriented, you don't need to be holding exhibitions to be an artist. That's the good thing about art, there isn't a scale they can measure you on or set example to compare you to.

And the thing is I can't drop. I dropped too much classes in the past and the gov might take away my grants.
I shouldn't majored in chemistry let alone math, I was good and interested in science but not that much. I could read about science, talk about but I've really done much of own my science projects, went to conventions or worked with a professor on their experiments.
I played videogames, MMOs, know my way around two operating systems, and wrote some of my own small opinion essays on society and history.
I've fell for the STEM hype, lots of people can't attempt it till master's level. STEM in grade school is nothing compared to college. Half will probably drop out by junior year.
>>24296752
I just embraced it and did everything the day before. I work pretty well that way, though. I started my dissertation 3 days it was due, and it turned out pretty good. It clocked in at about 12,000 words and I stole the structure of the report from some example exemplerary dissertation. The program I had to make was some shit rails web app that parsed a text file and took me all of two hours to do. I just lied and gave a fake timeline of working on it.
The hardest part was lying to my project supervisor in all those meetings.

There's nothing wrong with STEM.
STEM meme just means that some people are swept along with the current of the almighty STEM for reasons such as: pressure from family, money prospects, alternative to doctor or lawyer, superiority over others [and more].
STEM isn't impossible to do, some people come to like it, some people always wanted to do it and some people want to do something else but don't see a career in that something else.
It is far easier to go into STEM than it is to become a lawyer or doctor and people see this. In addition to that when you spend all your time using a computer or messing around with computer features or programming, people often confuse this for their "passion" and think "oh I sit at the computer all day STEM is the perfect profession for me".
There's no such thing as a liberal arts meme for the reason of the STEM meme. Hopefully you understand.

>>24298706
There's a difference between making art with your STEM skills and getting a degree in STEM to make art.
I never said I was abandoning STEM, I just said I don't want to do an entire degree for it and spend my 5-6 years for a bachelors when I could be doing art and developing my own style in the meantime.
You can be as enthusiastic as you want about your "revolutionary" ideas, but there's always more to something than sitting down and doing it as a hobby, that's why you go to college for it.
>>24298706
Seriously.
Art is the one area where you can focus equally on form and function, without production numbers and budget being the main concern.
>>24298878

>he had to take some building analysis course

>would make a schedule and budget for every show

I flat out told him it was meticulous and impressive compared to some of the generic stuff he was showing, CAD drawings they'd use on routers and those computerized routing machines, which is still interesting.

Get the STEM skills, THEN develop a new meaningful product that SOLVES a problem that OTHERS will invest in no matter how simple, NEXT PACKAGE it in a consumer friendly way, GET A TEAM OF MOTIVATED WORKERS, and subsequently build DEEP DOMAIN EXPERTISE in your area of study by reading the books of people who have made meaningful impact in your industry EVERYDAY... GUARANTEED six figures a year minimum if you follow these steps, and don't take shortcuts ... Also if you NEED the press talking about you publicity stunts are rquired for SUCCESS, if your product doesn't create a NEW INDUSTRY!!!!

>>24298867
This the level of STEM you would use in art you may as well just teach yourself it at the library. My latest art meets STEM venture is making UFO shaped drones and I don't need a degree in aerodynamics for that.
>>24298867
99% of colleges don't teach you to make art with STEM it will set you apart. The 4 year degree will set you very far apart. It will be more than a hobby, something ONLY YOU can offer the world, and not all the people who took your art curriculum ignore me if you want I'm telling the truth
>>24299194
These days he could probably literally get a degree in "Digitized Art" or something at a STEM college, focusing on the more computational aspects of graphic design. There's also literally Graphic Design courses that focus on programming I think, since we do still make graphics hardware and software.

Basically every one of these feels is related to social problems. And that is where robots like us are fucked in college.
Sure, there are some robots on here who are fine being complete shut-ins as they study their engineering and computer science degree and just doing nonstop programming and coding and math.
But for most people, they want to be social, and when you're in college/university is really really sucks to see everyone around you making so many friends, so many memories, having the greatest time of your life and you remain a friendless shut-in who can't relate to any of the tens of thousands of people around you

Listen dude, I know enough STEM that I could focus purely on Art while utilizing STEM to make it.

I found the easiest way to do essays was burn out two+ written pages in pen first (uh, on the bus ride into CC).
