      Bih that's ME. There are days where I don't even talk to my friends, I just ignore them, and days later I think they hate me for that, but them I talk to them and they are like ok but I feel bad anyway, so I correlate having friends with the feeling of rejection and then I don't want to open to people because I would end up having more ''social responsibility'' to talk to them. I kind of don't give a fuck about having friends at this point of my life , I guess. This is a real issue, asking for an advice

    #1: treat senioritis - find reason to want to do things
    #2: remember what college is - it's not like movies, it's boring, it's a place for learning
    #3: make your life a routine - it's not a choice to go to class, it's a routine, schedule your day out
    #4: COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE
    #5: multitask with something you already know - put on shows you already know really well so your attention isn't completely skewed
    #6: being a bad student isn't cool - no being a slacker olympic, nobody thinks it's cool anymore
    #7: think about the money - remember, skipping a class is flushing your cash down the drain

(many things that people think you need college for can be done with dedicated self study, etc.

      @@markswatermelonsuppler1280 ya, sure. that somehow is an argument to you? im talking about something else completely, but if you want a more savage dismissal of what a degree is sure, lets go all in against the institution of bullshit paper.
      degrees are intended to be a shorthand verification of some amount of knowledge in a field. this only works if we assume good faith of - the university system as a whole (this is disproven thanks to money, thanks rich people!), the administrators ( also disproven for basically the same reason), the teachers (disproven for many, thanks tenure!), the students (lol?)
      so we see at every link in the chain of trust universty as an instituion has failed to deliver it's promises.
      oh you graduated from stanford for X thing, hired! (because you are rich/come from money/ etc.) oh you graduated from nevada tech for X thing? filed under r for recycle that resume.
      now obviously there are some counter examples - medicine still has quite the strangle hold on degrees, so they mean something there (they mean that you have gone through the same torture we have, in persuit of capital, so you are more trustable than the rabble)
      in reality the only value college has is presenting ideas you don't know to look for (use wikipedia and youtube and you can do this yourself) and networking (zoom makin this one kinda flimsy) and maybe an enviroment free from distraction (lol?)
      in reality a degree says nothing about what a person actually knows. in those places where a degree is required it's more about classist bullshit than it is about actual ability.
      we don't even need to talk about the fact that because college is so pushed to middle classers as a way to get into the more privileged higher middle class (leveraging the future for injection of capital in the present) that we have reached a kind of saturation point where degrees are nearly ubiquitous thus meaningless. (enter meme about 4 year degree holders working at mcdonalds for 14$/hr)
      and it's not like i don't get why you think it's a good thing right, like I GET IT. i was raised in this hell world where the entire success of a person was preached from every authority figure to be grades and getting into a good school and etc etc. but that's not the same as actually being decent at something, and if you have a way to demonstrate your ability without some very expencive gold foil stamped paper with a good name on it,
      edited: for possible misunderstanding request as demand. then all the better.
      as i said before NOT EVERYONE needs to go to college. like for instance probably you.

      it looks like the bedroom of every guy i ever dated. basically you probably wouldn't eat something if you dropped it on this guy's floor, but you're also probably not going to touch any gross sticky surfaces or feel weird about sitting somewhere.
      the 3 who didn't look like this were not good. very nice clean homes, but were the fuck-with-your-head types :P my fiance is about on this level, and thankfully it means if i don't put away the laundry for 2 days no one's mad. also he's not going to pick my stuff up and put it in weird places like he's my mom. i do find giant shoes all over my house in random places, but there are worse things in life.
      my fiance's 16yr old was lamenting her messy clothes-ridden room awhile back and i was like. girl i'm 30 and i still have a took it off the hanger but didn't want to wear it chair, wore it once to the grocery store so it can stand at least one more outing chair, 3 hampers, and still end up with clothes inexplicably all over my floor like i'm still 14. pick it up when you have time and/or are bothered by it, don't ruin nice stuff, make sure there's no food, you're fine.

    This was so good for my mental health to watch a realistic video that admits that for some people the only way we can be motivated is caffeine and Netflix, complete with goofy dancing and a messy room. God, I honestly feel like I could cry I didn’t even realize until I watched this video all the unrealistic, unattainable content I was consuming. It just fed my perfectionist ego and made me feel like a complete failure for not feeling motivated and making my bed everyday. You guys, please really think about the content you are watching and viewing and be aware of how it is affecting your mind and your self-esteem. Your mental health is worth so much more than you realize, it is so much more important to be happy than to strive so hard to attain perfection. I just feel in my soul someone else needs to read what I just felt today.

      Family cannot see you without a full-time job or they will pile their own responsibilities onto you because "it's only fair, right?" Before you notice, you are not living your own life anymore, you're just a jack of all trades errand person for all their stuff, and they will still look down on you for "not doing anything" while your every waking hour is spent putting out their fires.
      I am so sorry you lost a year. I hope you can either move out, get started on school or employment, or set some boundaries (expect lots of pushback) to take your life back because there is nothing more frustrating and demoralizing than losing it that way.

      @@ninashaven yeah i may have meant to say that instead, but i find the concept of intelligence to be so loose due to cognitive biases that the human mind is inherently riddled with. like the duning-kruger effect where less intelligent people will overestimate their intelligence by virtue of ignorance, basically "you dont know what you dont know" and true knowledge resides in knowing that you know nothing (a la socrates), also because of iq tests whose concept is also extremely loose that even if you were smart, its best to simply assume youre average. when you imply that you need to be smart in order to be accepted in prestigious schools, you promote this way of thinking that limits your potential simply because of a trait that you think you have no control over. i also feel that this is a side effect of public schooling because they are the hotbed of generating fixed mindset societies by using external rewards (gold stars, grades, etc) as a determinant for inner worth and competence. also those acceptance rates remind me of this quote i read a long time ago, "a fool with a plan can beat a genius without a plan." i understand that everyone is different, and i may only be just making these claims because of my disdain for school systems and the toll it takes on young/old people who have so much potential, also because i believe every single person has the capacity to improve, also because of my lack of knowledge on what truly is intelligence, and also because of my inclination towards metaphysical ideas and the feeling that there is something nonphysical that "underlies" physical outward appearances. but i find myself curious about that topic so often that ive started digging out more research, personal observation, and reading philosophy.

If you're dumb, like me, you can still do very well with enough studying.

      Also guys who are confident and *not traditionally 100% attractive* but *instead inexplicably or untraditionally 100% but traditionally about 50-60%.* Guys who are interesting to look at rather than perfect ken dolls and pull it off well. Does that make sense? Yes I have someone in particular in mind. No, I will not say who it is. Sorry for the kind of unrelated reply. Had to go off on a tangent😂

    God, this is so relatable.
    I'm just starting university, and I'm literally failing most of my courses because I stupidly thought cramming all the semester in 3 weeks was enough. Now I'm in a strict diet of coffee and Doritos, while studying for 2 hours then playing btd6 for 1 (That from 7 am to 2 am the next day).

    It's just like ASMR for the eyes. Oh and it has to be with that song, so relaxing.

    Advice
    • Find the reason to want to do things, why are you in college?
    • Remember you are in college, know that it is not always fun, it is a place for learning
    • Don't try to find your motivation, try to set up a routine. Just do things because you always do it
    • Use caffeine, just drink it till you make it
    • Don't multitask, but if you do watch/listen to something that you know like the back of your hand
    • Don't not try, cuz u then sack a shit
    • College costs a lot of money, every time you want to skip class just think about if you want to burn a couple hundred dollars
    And watch everything slowly but surly break down during finals week.

      Finals week shouldn’t be treated like the rest of that semester, it should be treated as a much shorter period of a lot more studying. Finals aren’t as hard as we think they are as long as you study, and if you don’t think you’re going to have to do more studying you’re wrong and need to change that mindset

      Nicole Ng im taking high school and college classes right now, it’s actually not that hard you just have to be responsible for yourself and not rely on your parents cause they aren’t getting your report cards anymore so you have to stay motivated or just do the work even if you might not like it it’s a good thing to do for your future

      Chicken Wing Yeah I’ve been doing some weekend college classes and I no longer show my parents my grades (unless they rlly ask for it). I just struggle with mental health and motivation a lot so I know my struggles in high school rn will translate to college. And yeah I agree that college courses aren’t that bad

      Caffeine takes about 40 minutes to fully kick in, so you should drink the coffee about half an hour before the things you need to do

    I'd say don't go to college unless you can find a way to live a very short distance away so you can get more sleep.
    I lived in the country and had to get up at 530am every day during college to get a ride to start class at 9 and I often didn't end up getting home til around 7pm.
    It was not a good couple of years.
