Right now college is a right bitch.
Thing is Ive only been there 2 weeks and disliking it already.
Its not like I'm not used to college, i mean i left High School 2 years ago and went straight into college and had no problem settling in.

I'm just really confused about what i want to do. When i chose what i was going to study it was all such a rush and i had to make a decision quick so that i got a place.
I mean, do i stay at college for the next 3 years doing something i know I'm not gonna be happy doing or do i take a while to actually think properly about what i really want to do. Maby get a job this year, earn some money then go back to something i want to do next year?
I really dont know

My problem seems to be I'm not thinking ahead.
All i seem to think about right now is going out with mates, having fun, having no worries.
But then everyone gets at me saying "Your 18, nearly 19 you need to figure out what you want to do with your life".

University is of out of the picture i think, as i done pretty shit at school (which i really regret) and so i don't have the best qualifications....so my only other option is college again.

There isn't really a question here i just wanted to rant i suppose

Ah believe me Ive told them, well not so much in those words....
They must be on something. I mean 18/19's still young!!  

But yeh like your brother, i know a few people who graduated from Uni/College and still don't have a clue what to do.
Its not like i want to plan my whole life out or that haha. I just want to at least do a course that i know i might get something out of it at the end.
All the courses Ive been doing are all to do with art, so maby i need to get away from that, do something entirely different.

I was gonna stay until Christmas, but after today i really don't see myself going back. I get along with all the people Ive met there, but for me thats not a good enough reason to stay!
Looks like I'll be out job hunting now

Those people that are talking shite with their "You're 18, nearly 19" tell them to fuck off. For me?
The other day my da was saying he's 40 and he still doesn't know what he wants to do!
My brother just graduated from college recently and he hasn't got a clue what he wants to do!

What I'm saying is most people "don't know what they want to do" but you said you're not happy at what you're doing, that's a different story! Don't continue with something that you're not happy with!

All you're thinking about is having fun? Good for you! Seriously I envy that! ;0)

Maybe try this course until Christmas? If not try get a job for the year like you said and have a think about things?
