"I am Jack's total waste of intelligence."
sorry, couldn't resist.
-------------------- "America touts itself as the land of the free, but the number one freedom that you and I have is the freedom to enter into a subservient role in the workplace. Once you exercise this freedom you've lost all control over what you do, what is produced, and how it is produced. And in the end, the product doesn't belong to you. The only way you can avoid bosses and jobs is if you don't care about making a living. Which leads to the second freedom: the freedom to starve." - Tom Morello

Is this your first year/semester in college?
The first year can be rough as fuck. I definitely felt the same way you did my first year. I also excel in science (not so much in math). I remember calling home to my parents and crying. Yes, and 18 year old male crying because I was so fucking stressed and felt so lost. Second year was a little better. I finally realized that I just fucking hated the school I was at. It took me 2 years and bringing my GPA down to a 1.9, but I finally figured it out and transfered. I was at a school close to home, about 50 miles away. I transfered to a school that is about 950 miles away from home. It was what I needed. Completely different environment, different set of people, different academic standards.
Perhaps that's what you need. Maybe try going to a community college just to get the hang of things. Thats what I did after my first school. It helped get me "back on my feet." One of my biggest problems is I thought I knew how to study... Turns out I didn't. And I didn't have good work ethic. Community college for 3 semesters fixed that and now I'm at a prestigious university kicking ass in some of the most difficult science classes in undergrad.
Dunno if that helps at all, but that's all I have for ya.

second year currently living in a house with 3 other kids. I know I can do these classes with an A. If I applied myself. My mom has been saying my entire life "you are smart, if you just applied yourself you could be on the top" If I can pick up on these hard science and math classes without lifting a finger imagine if I actually...gasp...studied. No more B- for me but actual real A's. I have work ahead of me. I need to pick up some hobbies. probably learn to make music on my computer I have always wanted to but just too lazy.
It all comes back to laziness, that is my true problem. But it is most peoples as well.
EDIT: I just realized something important. I have not smoked pot in over a week as opposed to my every day habit for all summer and all freshman year and before that. Its like I finally "awoke" and now all these clear thoughts are rushing to my head that I put off thinking about to get stoned. fucking pothead recovery. I am laying off the pot for a while until I can figure this shit out and get my life back on the tracks.
again, thanks for the advice my friends.

I was walking to class on 18th. Between College and High. It would have been on my way to McPherson at 11:30... or 11:18ish I suppose since it was between class times.

I know exactly where you're coming from tangerines, especially about the friends part. 99% of the people I met in college I'll never talk to again. I walked away from the experience with a small handful of very good friends, those core friends you'll have for life - the ones you know, and the ones that know you. There is no shame in dropping out, not everyone loves to wade through all the bullshit in life - the prescribed behaviors and socially accepted norms (do well in college, get a good job, be heterosexual, marry in your race, blah blah blah). Do what matters to YOU, and no one else - when you're in your deathbed, you'll be glad you listened to yourself and didn't put up with everyone else's bullshit

dude man i'm exactly the same. im in my third year of an intense degree. Every term I learn the entire course in 2 days before the exam and do well on the exam, but still get shitty marks because i dont work throughout the semester. I know I could easily ace the shit if i actually tried, but really have no desire to do so at all. Oh well. just keep on truckin through it.

sounds to me like you are pretty young and you can always leave and come back to college. so just fuckin drop out, do your own damn thing for a while, dick around, fuck off, have fun, do what you want to do. if you are feeling like that, just dip out and do whatever. then go back to school, and maybe by that time you will have figured out what it is you really want to do in life.

spend your next summer working at ups or fedex. then realize that the rest of your life will be like that if you dont get your degree or go to a trade school.
i bet you go back to school.

Tangerines, you bastard! I was going to post your avatar in this thread. Now go do that thread justice and post it yourself.
