Hey Sup Forums I just got kicked out of college so I’m in a bummy mood. Not really sure where to go in life now.

Why'd you get kicked out?

Having marijuana and paraphanalia in my dorm room :(

are you the finnbro from /f1/?

if so i know your feels. Find a job, or if you can afford it take a bit to get your shit right, then reapply or start learning a trade. The biggest part is to figure out what went wrong, get that fixed, then go back and try again. Gotta get back on the horse if thats what you really want to do, if not find a job or work that you enjoy.

I’m not but this def helps Sup Forumsro, ty

I'm almost 29 and I've only ever taken 1semester trade programs in college. Never gone for a degree.

Life goes on OP. Suck it up and go to a different college or something, you're probably still young.

go become bill gates

I’d love to pursue a humanitarian career but I don’t have the personal capital to even be able to start to do so

have some pristine virtual ass

no srsly tho, go get laid, virtual ass is only good for so long.

Get on board a search and rescue crew. Start doing something that most people see as "mattering", then by association you're doing something that is humanitarian and well perceived by others looking for people in that sector of work.

>Using drugs
Im fucking glad you got kicked, stupid fuck.

I currently volunteer my time at a nonprofit that works with homeless and mentally/intellectually disabled but that’s only a surface of the wound I want to get into

To add to this: Every day shit is going downhill for people in the world. While you mope about finding a gig, people are being raped, abducted, drowning, murdered, getting lost in a snowstorm, etc.

Put those people and their potential worries before your own worries, and you'll start to find that you don't really worry about yourself anymore. It's liberating.

Sounds like that's one avenue you can dig deeper into though. That kind of work can progress into things like drug rehabilitation specialists, grief counseling, etc.

Yes it is! I also interned at the blue bench in Colorado that works to address the rape and sexual crimes. It is great to feel that I am helping others less fortunate out but I still feel like there is more I can accomplish

But for most of those jobs you need a college degree to advance

I feel you OP, I once had a group of friendsc, I mean Breakfast Club teir, now I'm really lonely.
>be freshman (3 years ago) and go on a trip to the Galapagos Islands because school had extra money.
>be in shape with ok upper bod muscle but thighs of a god, also play volleyball
>end up meeting four of the coolest kids ever
>meet Ben, Junior, who's a Jewish Baseball player, complete upper body master btw, but he's short so...
>also meet Nick, Sophomore , computer dude, really skinny and hairy, apparently one of the top 200 players in destiny and halo
>next is Olivia, Sophomore, really short but funny and kind. Her and Ben really hit it off.
>finally there's Lauren, sophomore, the goddess herself. Fuckin beautiful and perfect, like something from heaven. Loves all the same shit I do, music, shows, etc. I fall in love with this girl basically.
>we all hang out, drinking age is 16 there so the locals could care less (I look 19 at the time because I'm like 6'0)
>me and Lauren really hit it off too, one thing we like to do is watch the stars on the roof because cosmos n' shit
>talk about how lucky we are to be here, and how there's an infinite number of things that could've stopped us from being there together, but here we are
>look in awe at the stars and roll over and look at her, she looks at me and I see the stars in her eyes
>shit gets intense and I have the best sex I'd ever had and still have ever had
>nearing the end of the trip, the five of us out of the 14 students who did go on the trip are talking about plans for after the trip
>talking about hanging out and stuff
>we get back home and then we hang out like normal, but it gradually draws out
>every hangout is farther from the last until eventually, nothing
>it all happened so casually that it scared me, and still does
>I suddenly had a realization, that I was alone without many friends
>I always wonder why the spark went out though, why the passion between me and Lauren went dull
Anyone else?

Are you looking for a job that people see as "mattering, or that has prestige"

Or are you looking to make a difference, and to what degree you can make said difference?

You definitely don't "need" a degree to set a good example and accomplish more.

You’re totally right I don’t need a degree to help others out. But I guess I do want a prestigious job that still matters with helping people. I know that sounds selfish but that’s just how I see the world working for getting a position that can actually make a difference in the long run. Helping 1 person or 100 doesn’t solve the problem if there is one.

No I feel you Man I’ve had a group of friends I used to be real close with and then when my mom passed only a few showed up to the funeral and then after that most of them I rarely or never heard from again. I basically had to start all anew with making friends which was hard but necessary to bring peace at mind

More than half of the kids at my school are gonna end up a community college and are in need of like Adhd meds (no offense if you take them) but guys at my school are mostly immature. There's a couple kids I talk to and some I hang out with but other than that 90% of my freetime is by myself. I wish I could meet kids who weren't retarded but it's a needle in a haystack. Glad you could find some people to talk to user.

Some people is literally 2 people and then casual conversation with classmates. There are days where I wish someone else could come into my life and be that spark to guide me and change my direction of life. Most the people here are the same way and I feel antisocial but where I came from I was always the life of my friends. Time changes you

I got a bachelor's in horticulture and it hasn't amounted to anything. Honestly, OP, you need to figure out what you would like to do and what makes you happy and build a career around that... hint hint marijuana.

Become a porn star

Hint hint you nailed that one dead on. But it’s so hard to get into that industry...harder than being a humanitarian. Tbh I wanted to work with hemp legalization and work to shift the paper and petroleum industries to more hemp based products. But ya know broke college kid with no capital here

Try again, OP. Hide your weed better, or just drink booze while you're living on campus. This sucks, but it'll pass.

Pick yourself up and work hard. This ain't the end of it, and it won't be the shittiest thing to stand in your way either.

My shit was hidden well in a mason jar, in a box, inside my safe but they got an order from the college getting a warrant to open it which blew me really bad. I also hate alcohol as I hate not being in the mindset of having full control; why I like weed

What country you from? If Canada, just wait until next summer when shit's legal.

That's a bummer story, man. No way to appeal the decision?

I filed for appeal immediately but haven’t heard back from the college yet. I live in Pennsylvania and there are booty laws here e.g. it’s decrimilized within the city limits but because I attended a private institution...

such a disappointing post...real life...

Wonder if you could agree to stay enrolled and just live off campus? Solves everybody's problem, and living on res is kinda lame anyway. College improved drastically when I found a room in a house downtown.

Good luck, dude. Not the end of the world, but definitely shitty circumstances.

It never felt like time changed me, but it changed my friends, like some of the kids who i thought would be my best friends back in elementary ended up picking on me because they thought the sports I played were gay. I 've gotten into fights and stuff and it's literally hell at my school because all of the fucking retards try to act like tough shit and gang up on each other, and they're so exclusive. I just hope that when I go to college I meet people that have similar interests as me and aren't autistic

That or at least let me finish this semester and we mutually part and I transfer to another institution. I hate this college but I’m not going to throw away half a semesters worth of work

That’s just high school man and I know everyone says that but it’s cause everyone experiences similar things cause kids that age are just shitty. It’s that simple. But when you get to college be the person you want to be immediately otherwise people will think and know if you based on your first impression
