All i do is play touhou, Visual Novels, fap to Touhoes and sage ayafags...

WHY IS MY LIFE A LIVING SHITHOLE /JP/!
I haven't even go to college, not because i lack money.

BUT BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO STUDY.
I wanted to be an engineer or a doctor but.. i simply don't have the motivation to do anything.. no dreams.

I'm also wasting my potential as well. I graduated top 5 in my high school class. I could have a 3.95-4.00 right now in my senior year of college, but I decided I didn't feel like doing homework, so I'm hovering around 3.7

My current goal in life is to go to law school and become a lawyer so that I may eventually work my way into the political system. Although animu inspired me to do this (fuck you fags, LoGH was awesome), I always feel like I'm walking on a tight rope between my weeaboo hobbies and the studying for school and just the generally honing of skills I'll need for my future. Not to mention between work and hobbies I have almost no social life, a skill that I might need the most in politics.

Every once in awhile before I go to bed I'll tell myself, "You're going to get up tomorrow, delete your ffxi character, wipe your hard drive, and break your figs", but I can never take that step --every morning I know I have failed right when I audibly, yet unconsciously by habit, say to my Saber fig, "Good Morning Miss Saber"

Haha oh wow. Yeah, I decided to major in Computer Sciences because I'm no good at anything else. I told myself it was either that or nothing.

I fucking regret it. I was already sick of being on the computer (because it's ruining my life) before I decided to major in CS.

Take out loans to go to school you fucking faggot. I really don't see why anyone plays the "BUT I HAS NO MONIES ;_;" card. Just because you're not a rich spoiled shit like all the other kids whose Mommy and Daddy are paying their tuition doesn't mean you can't go.

Of course, unlike those kids, you're seriously fucked if you fail. Which is why loan-taking kids are generally more hard-working than the pampered bastards.

Sure, you'll be up to your neck in $200,000+ debt, but it'll be fun, at least.

I've always believed that following what you have a passion for is what the best thing to do.

But that's not the case to follow at all times. Sometimes, what people need are a swift kick in the ass into reality, that they've allowed themselves to degenerate and now, no longer have a choice. This applies to many of us, including myself. I let myself slack, and now I have to pay the price. Now I have no longer a choice in what I want to do.
