So I'm not the only one, an odd phenomenon indeed

I wasted my chance at the college experience. I went and stayed in my fucking dorm room the entire year. I did a bit of partying, sure, and I hung out with a few friends and we smoked weed the entire year. But that was it- I didn't get black out drunk every weekend and live the college life. I'm 22 now and I'll finish art school when I'm 24, so maybe at 24-25 I can catch up on that if I go do a master's degree.

It boils down to me feeling like I missed what was supposed to be the happiest period of my life. Every day I'm haunted by the fact that I could've had lots of friends in high school if I tried a bit harder, and that I could've finished my first degree instead of dropping out and doing jack shit for three years. Every year I waste I set higher goals for myself in an attempt to make up for the time I threw in the garbage- so as to prove to people that I'm not worthless, even if they don't even notice it because I'm basically a non-person to many of them.

The past is the past, though. There's no changing it now. Right now I'm just grinding my art and working on getting good enough to make my webcomic- I feel good about this. I feel like I have an original enough idea to stand out from most, even though I know that sounds naive.

At least my parents are loaded.
