Has anyone else passed college with that attitude? Of course! Why are you even in college though if you just want to fuck around?

Do you want to continue your education after your 4 years? Cumulative GPA is pretty important.

How sure are you that you can pull A's in the classes you are interested in when you spent the previous two years preparing by playing make believe that you are a wizard on the internet.

Get used to doing shitty stuff now, you won't be as angsty about it later.

I am simply suggesting to you that by undertaking things you find unpleasant, you may find yourself grow as a person in ways you did not previously have the capacity to understand.

ALTERNATELY
by avoiding things you find unpleasant, you will avoid things you find unpleasant

i strongly recommend that you do either one or the other (IE, either dive in or get out)

bullshitting for two and a half years then getting kicked out is no way to go

I feel kinda bad. My new roommate has been doing homework on in the living room for 2 hours! Ive been playing WoW for the last 6  hours. When it comes to college guys im a total slacker! My attitude twords college is to get it over with. Im working on my general Ed (im a sophomore) and i cant bring myself to enjoy this bull crap! I just want to work on my major but till then, I just want to pass my classes with a C or higher.....nothing more.

Is this normal? Has anyone else passed college with this kind of attitude? Its been working for me so far! Ive only got 1 C our of my freshman year so things always work out! But i cant help but feel guilty and that i should be applying myself more.

I imagine ill actually give a shit about learning once i start on my Major more, but GOD This general ed is such bullshit.

Thoughts? Experiences?

Do it all man, I don't know what to tell you without sounding like some old guy scolding a kid, but your education is so fucking important, it's not a joke. Do all of it, the shit work, the interesting work, the busy work, do it all, smile big, and say thank you, can I please have some more.

You can slide downhill so fast, and then before you know it, you've failed out, and you have to struggle your ass off every fucking day just to make it from one day to the next.

So do it man, not because someone tells you to, not to make anyone else happy, but do it for yourself, to keep yourself sharp, and to better secure your own future.

Or keep playing WoW and in ten years you can sit around complaining about how no one instantly recognizes your potential or value, and you can't get a job without a stupid piece of paper.

Such passion Do you speak from experience?

Charles said:

Yes.

Don't let being bored rob you of the opportunity you have in front of you right now. You'll hate yourself for it if you do.

The thing is im doing my work.  I do all my work and if im gonna fail (like my statistics class this semester) Then i drop the class in time to get a W.

Im just saying I do the bare minimum to get by. The only reason im determined to get a degree is so i dont end up in your position. I know how important it can be (even for regular jobs) to have a college diploma.

Ill do my work, But Im not gonna stress over it. Im simply trying to see if others are like me and if they got a 4 yr degree doing the minimum.
