DeebieSkeebieswhy feel like an asshole? seems like a life lesson on who is worthwhile who doesn't give a shit. its a good time to learn how to see through people to their bullshit going into college, it helps you weed out all the snakes and shitheads. i think the bigger thing ive taken away from post HS/college life is how to callout peoples bullshit.
in the same boat as you, though. even currently. close friends that claim "we're the only homies we got now" sending you snapchats/posting all this cool outdoor shit they did on social media without a single invite call or text. kinda see why my other friends considering living in Jackson hole full-time now, he sees the bullshit in this town just as good as i do.
its even more of a bummer when you grow up with people back east from a very early age (we're talkin toddler shit) all the way up to like 7th/8th grade that almost forget you exist no more than a few months after moving away from your home town. THe kind of relationships where everyone hung out with eachother: parents were besties with the parents and the kids all hungout with each other. I remember my moms best friend looking me in the eye when i was 10 or 11 and telling me that we're all like one big family and that her daughters we like my sisters and that "as we get older, we need to look out for one another because that's all we got. If you see anyone messing with my girls, you deal with them" like some mobster shit (for what its worth, the lady was about 4-5 screwdrivers deep and i still can smell the booze breath). Flash-forward 9 years later and i honestly cant recall the last time i spoke to any of those people, relatives included.
fuck em, though. its a two-way street and not worth reaching out to people who in reality don't give a shit about you, you know? life is weird.
Chubz.I really regret not trying in hs grade wise. I really want to go back to school and dive right into a university rather than having to go to a cc and transfering.
Idk, feel like thats the only route.
I think im gonna send it out to utah in january 2017 and go to slcc and see if i can transfer to the U the following fall. Really have no idea what i want to do with life yet but being in school is better than just working and watching the years fly by when I could be halfway through a degree by now.
.Rybak.I'm finally to a point where I poked so many new holes in my belt that it just ripped and all of my pants will just slide down without one. Actually super stoked now but I have to go buy a new belt...
Randy_QuenchNothing wrong with CC and transferring dude. I feel like there's a stigma about going to CC or a tech school over a University. I've had this conversation here on NS a dozen times. In reality, you wont learn anything related to your major your first year at university anyways. I did a year at home/CC after high school and it saved me more than 20k in tuition, I was able to work and put away some money, and I didn't miss out on any valuable information because I would have taken the same bullshit elective courses as a freshman at university as I did at CC. (Not to mention the amount of free time I had to ski while at CC..)
On another note- if you have no idea what you want to do with life, why bother wasting time and thousands of dollars on schooling that might not be relevant to what you want to do? This was ultimately what led me to go to CC. I didn't know what I wanted to do tomorrow, let alone in 5-10 years.
Chubz.Part of me just wants to get a degree, get a good job live in a nice house on a good amount of land, own a boat, be able to provide my kids with a dope childhood. But I dont want to be in my late 30s hating my job every day. And I also dont want to spend a shit ton of money on schooling just to be another kid with a degree not able to find a job.
Life's hard.
MinggDo all of your gen eds and get a feel for what you like schoolwise. Find literally anything that is interesting to you and do some unpaid work for a few hours per week. You wont know what you wanna do till you have the chance to get a feel for different things.
Most people switch their majors at some point, whether its to a different concentration or a whole new field. It's kind of like guess and check. It's like, you just gotta send it and you gotta fuck up to figure it out. It's inevitable. You got it though. You're a smart dude and you'll do sick shit in whatever you want to go into.
It also sounds like you just didn't give a shit about what you were going to school for which makes it a thousand times harder to do well. If you do something you're really passionate about, it won't be as much of a drag. You might even find yourself enjoying it if its something you really really are into!
Chubz.I dreaded waking up every day and having to drive to this shitty ass school when all my friends were living it up at the school's they wanted to go to.
I originally wanted to go for communications and become a sportscaster but really wasnt feeling that route when I got into school.
Filming and skiing are my passions, theyre what I enjoy the most but I also want to be able to support a family down the road and I dont feel like I'll be able to live how I want trying to do that.
Life's hard.
Chubz.I mean I'd love to go to school for filming. I feel like that would be something I'm really interested in and would enjoy learning about..idk

SconnieTraining a new waitress at work and she is really cool. We've only worked together two nights. She's 19, I'm 18. The sexual tension is off the charts and we get along great.
I have never felt feels this strong right off the bat before... like butterflies in the stomach type of feels. What is happening... am I actually attracted to someone?

.lenconyeah that's probably not a bad idea at all.. probably a good idea to start a multi vitamin now haha I bet the dorms are crawling with nasty stuff, especially after hook ups
OregonDeadHand washing. Get fanatical about it. Nutrition will help but schools are full of germs and it's easy to touch something and then accidentally touch your mouth, eye or nose, First couple years I worked here at the college I got nasty colds that turned into pneumonia. Since then I've been washing my hands after every time I go into a public area. If I go for a walk around campus I wash my hands when I get back into my office. Same thing at home, every time I get home I wash my hands first thing. Use a towel to turn off the sink etc. Basically I follow the food prep hand washing rules all the time no matter what I'm doing. In addition to keeping your immune system strong hand washing is critical.
DeebieSkeebiesstoked to see my old job/position in the job directories for Deer Valley but at the same time im really worried and anxious over it. I fucking hate anxiety so much.
.Rybak.Zlatan to Manchester United? Ho ly fuck
Chubz.slvsh in multi player shredsauce is fun as hell. Cant wait till this stuff cleans up a little bit.
Learned how to roll doobies today finally. So nice to be able to roll up my own spliff now.
theBearJewAnyone ever been to Death Valley National Park? Planning a Cali road trip and wondering if its worth a stop.
SconnieMy dad is the king of douchbags. I really can't handle it anymore. He's a former multi-sport highschool jock and his ego is through the roof. I never get along with the jocks at school so it makes sense that he comes off as such a tool to me.
He's very racist and arrogant and just not caring at all. So thankful that my mom has taught me how to be a decent human being with hobbies.
