How are you faring in your classes /sad/?
Been in college for a year, a year and half with this semester. Gonna be put in academic probation after this semester for my shitty GPA. Is there any point in continuing? I not even sure if I like geology that much, hell I'm not sure what I like period. If quit the worst part of it is that my mom, my sister and her friends are going to belittle me, just like every time I fail at something; my sister and her friends don't directly belittle me but they throw lowblows about my failures over the most simplest arguments, and it stings /sad/, it stings like a motherfucker.
Also

>>537I'm considering taking a semester off to reassess my life. This whole path is starting to feel like the wrong one for me. If you do take time off, don't take too long or you'll get stuck.

Well I'm not doing too well, OP. I didn't know what I wanted to do for the rest of my life so I had others choose for me, and while I am not terrible at the work I just don't know. I have no time for anything else because of work, and that kind of sucks, but what I really have a problem with is the elective classes. I see no point in them, their only purpose is to waste even more of my time, and I am not good at them at all. Probably doesn't help my situation that I've done absolutely nothing to branch out, instead I use the 20 minutes in between class and work by sitting in my car like a loser and browsing 8chan.

Well, I'm currently maintaining a 3.47 GPA, and somehow managed to get a 4.0 last semester. Doesn't quite help with the realization that my Film degree is useless, and that nothing I've worked on over the past four years is worth the time of anyone other than the professors who thought it was good enough. I'll probably start feeling better in two or so months, which will be after I graduate and start eating real food, but right now I have to actively push myself to do anything but sit on my computer and jack it to sissy shit. Fuck everything.

I'm in high school, junior year. Grades are starting to go down. I've been putting things off a lot, but I've made it through alright enough, total average never below 82-83. But I can't stop procrastinating no matter how hard I try and I'm set to take pre-calc next year so depending on my teacher I may or may not fail horribly.
I feel despair, in part because it all feels like it's going to crush me and in part because I could have stopped this. I could have just pulled my shit together and done my homework and studied and gotten good grades. But no, I end up wasting hours upon hour on useless bullshit and then I feel even worse.
I feel sad.

I'm actually doing pretty well, but it's really starting to fuck up my stomach.
