I'm a 19 year old engineering major (Turning 20 this year). I feel like I'm getting old. I feel like I've missed out on all the fun party life others had the chance to have.

How old am I really guys ;_;. I won't be graduating til I'm 23, and even then I'll be going straight for my phD.

I just wanna be in my aesthetic prime and have my fashion, looks, social/party life all top notch.

so /fa/...w-when is the aesthetic prime of your life? When you look your best, get mad pussy, fuck girls at that age that look better than any other age, have the freedom/money to fucking love every day

cuz right now i wake up in da morning n hate living, throw my cps and ilu sweats on and go to my engineering class that smells like piss, then try to work through seas of neckbeards discussing their LoL match over the weekend.

that includes the field of study you chose to pursue
you have knight in shining armor syndrome

I feel the same way somewhat....

I mean I have been waking up happy since the new year now that I have found something I'm passionate about. The only thing that brings me down is hanging out with friends. I know that if I stay out to late with them it puts a hold on my "progress", then I tend to go to bed upset.

Easy Fix: Have no friends
>Be a Wednesday
>Get invited to party while hanging out with a friend
>Sure we can go for a little while
>Show up
>Tell friend that I don't want to stay the night there I want to go home
>Party is entertaining
>Remind friend I don't want to stay the night
>It's getting a little late
>He and a girl be making out
>Texts me "Stay for me"
>I had told him 5 times before this that I didn't want to stay
>I end up staying for him
>They run off and make out
>Tell everyone at the party that I don't care about them (I work with most of the people there)
>Girl doesn't put out for friend
>Friend says we can leave
>Blow up on him in the car

I wanted to be an asshole so they'd leave me alone, they were drunk and don't even remember me being an ass.

Risk it how though? I'm not just some kid lugging through engineering for a good job or some shit. I have an ultimate passion/goal I want to achieve, it's just so fucking enfuriating that it's such a big dream that partying it up like psychology majors and compromising my grades takes away from where I want to be.

I just want to enjoy my life and have it moving toward the point I want to be, but as of right now my life for the next 3 years looks really fucking tight/routine (full or extra course load during fall/spring terms, with co ops or jobs to pay off my student loans in between those).

This wouldn't be a problem if I were ugly/scrawny/had no desire to dress well or fuck a lot of women. I'd be happy as fuck. But I feel like these urges, and these traits ive been given need to be fuckin used before I start going bald and women my age look like shit

As someone who let this sort of shit go on until he was 23, and is just now patching it up: just do more. Push yourself. You'll be surprised what you can pull off in a single day if you keep driven through the whole thing, use up "spare" moments.

I mean, look at James Franco. Somehow the guy's gotten that down so well he's in multiple prestigious graduate programs in different cities while acting in movies and writing short stories on the side. People working with him on sets say that as soon as the director yells "cut" he's sitting down someone with some research materials. That's the goal mode.

Risks you could take: studying a little less, seeing how it affects your academics, both in actual terms and in terms of numbers that could affect grad school.

Working less and taking on more debt. Obviously debt's a bad idea and generally just serves to make people more boring, but you can work around that. At the most awesome, you're effectively beyond the reach of the debt if you expatriate yourself (assuming you're American). Less neat and clean, if you can convert your student loan debt to normal personal debt, you can clear it in a bankruptcy.

Take a semester off or semi-off.

Etc.

James franco is also a multi millionaire who can pay to have classes set up to his advantage, pay people to take notes for them, get professors who fail him fired and overall cannot be compared to a normal student with no money.

By the way, those were all arts. Meaning he never even needed to learn anything, but rather pour out his own heart and bullshit in whatever way seems artistic. He only got enough to pass his classes so the school wouldn't get a bad rep/in trouble for failing him/the fact that hes fucking james franco

Yep. Credit ratings don't transfer. They can't garnish your wages, because US government orders aren't valid overseas. It's not worth the cost to litigate and the government has an official policy not to. A private lender could, but they'd lose money doing it.

at least consider what you're going to remember when you grow up

of course, you can't even fathom what you're going to feel like when you're older, but will you remember what goals you achieve, or some random ho skanks you fucked.

it's hard to plan for the future, do what feels right to you right now, and remember that it's good to take risks. bigger risks require ALOT of resilience to follow them through, otherwise you'll fuck up your life.

What's my biggest goal in life? To lose the weight I need to and tone up, to have nice hair, to get my healthcare loan and get braces so that I have straight teeth, to have perfect skin. It sounds stupid and vain, right? I should be focusing on a career and money, right? No. I want to eliminate every physical flaw that I have before I worry about any of that. I want to have nothing wrong with me so that nobody can use my weaknesses against me to bring me down. I don't want to be called fat or ugly or made fun of for my teeth. I want people to look at me and think "woah, she's something." I want to make up for all the times I was made to feel like shit as a kid because of my appearance. Not because I'm vain, or superficial, or stupid. Because I know I can be better. So much better than what those people made me feel like. Once I am perfect on the outside, I can work on using what I have on the inside. Don't give up just because people are hurtful and insult you. Use it to motivate you.
