Who else here /too dumb for their dreams/ ?

>Ever since I can remember I wanted to be a scientist
>Didn't matter what as long as it had to do with space
>Fucking fascinated with space
>Spend all my pocket money on books about space
>Get a telescope at age 9
>Get good grades until I was about 14 or 15
>Then my grades in science start slipping
>Work twice as hard but I can't seem to understand math or physics no matter how hard I try
>tried other methods, extra classes etc
>Slowly start understanding I'm just not smart enough to be a scientist
>End up giving up after getting awful grades in scientific subjects in senior year of high school even though I almost worked myself to mental exhaustion

Tfw now I work a dead end job in a shitty office and spend my evenings looking at the stars with my telescope from the balcony of my shitty appartment and thinking of how I wanted to understand space. Life isn't fair.

Be a test engineer then. All you need is an associates in anything stem related. It's not as difficult.

I'm sad we can't trade places. I want you to have understanding and I feel like I don't deserve it. I'm Jewish but never worked for anything in my life. Feels like everything just fell into my lap

As I said I'm awful in scientific subjects. I'm fine in everything else languages, litterature etc but math and physics are beyond my comprehension. No matter how hard I try I can't understand anything

That's nice thanks anon. I guess I just have to accept I won't be a scientist. Worse part is I'm pretty good at everything else but other subjects don't interest me

>Too poor to afford school
>Too stupid to know shit about medicine
>Learned when I was 14 that I liked hurting people far more than helping them.

When kids talk about how they'll live their dreams, I have to stop myself from correcting them. Let them have their happiness for a little while longer.
