- Im in a point in my life where i really don't know where i'm going!
is it just me or does this have a twang of Fancy_Pollox about it?
You can only reach this goal if you finish your school, I am sorry but this is the hard true.Andoura wrote:
I wont quit school, I will just make something else....
Dammit guys, we fucked up my mind even more lol I'll think about this, talk with my bro, Im only 18 and i feel like wasting my time. I cant wait until i get my own job and buy my house etc... a standard relax life
Here's my opinion:
I'm 26 and I have a good job, but I've only completed like 20-22 hrs of college. I graduated from high school 8 years ago and have basically just been working. I got married and had a beautiful little boy, so I'm in a predicament now. I make enough money to support my family so the wife can stay home and raise our son. On the other hand, we sometimes struggle for money because of my job. If I had completed college, I wouldn't be worrying about money. But, if I had completed college, I wouldn't be married and I wouldn't have my son. So, in all, I'm happy with my choices in life.
Since you don't have to look back, just forward, trust me, FINISH SCHOOL FIRST. Do whatever it takes to get through. If you never want anything nice in life, quit school and get a mundane job that'll lead nowhere. Get your school out of the way as quick as you can. You don't straight A's, just GET THAT DEGREE. You won't have to be like me... looking back at what I should've done that would benefit my current situation. It's going to be much harder for me to go back to school (even to get motivated) now that I have a full-time job and a family.
But, like I said, finish school. Then take a year or two and just mess around and get it out of your system. Don't worry about not living up to anyone's expectations but your own. It's your life and you can do whatever you want!

just don't do things for other people; do them for yourself. (don't take that the wrong way)
Hey man; I myself was in this exact position once (well maybe not exact);
I dropped out of college and am currently an electrician. I didnt know what I wanted to do so
I chose to become an electrician as its a great way to see the world and the pay is good. And
while I certainly enjoy my job, if I could do it all again id have finished college first.
Maybe defer entry to next year at college and get a job on the sites and ask some of the older
electricians what they think. Its a big leap from college to full time employment!!
Best of luck bud, hope it works out! Just ask loads of questions to relevant people

1. Finish school, go to university. If electrical technology interests you, go for electrical engineering. After graduation, look to your electrician brother for business opportunities or advice.
2. If you're bound and determined to take a hiatus from school, join the military for a tour. You will more than likely regain the focus you seem to be lacking now.
