Anyone else like this? I'm the only guy in all of my classes who doesn't look like a science major or a nerd. I don't relate well since they seem to be intimated or disinterested in talking to me.

I'm sure he will quiet down or fade away when he actually gets to some decent upper division chem courses.

There's a reason why you don't see overly tattoo'd chemists. I'm pretty sure there's a correlation between idiocy and how many tattoo's you own.

This is not a sign of a good student or researcher. I've met plenty of people that have said this during university studies and they always change majors midway or flunk out entirely. You can really tell a student that's going to make it far by how much effort they put into their studies.

Oh, then please explain to us an alternative:
you need to outline all core topics,
practice study and learning skills,
impress upon them roles, self-direction, self-control, self-discipline and self-improvement,
all while they are going through puberty,
in a densely social environment.

You go ahead and explain to me that _high school_ is the problem here.

OP, your problem likely has more to do with your social skills than your tattoos. Every first impression I've had of a classmate based off of their appearance usually went away once they demonstrated good social skills/intelligence.

I doubt anyone truly thinks you're too much of a badass to talk to.

Having tattoos doesn't make you a criminal or a meathead. I hate how there are so many threads on this board of people asking for life advice because they aren't confident enough to ignore what people think and just do things their own way. That being said, everyone talking shit to the OP can go fuck themselves.

Some people look at me as though I am lost. I don't care though, mistakes were made in the past, I am here today to rectify them.

To those saying it is stupid to join the military, it will help in my ultimate goal of working for the government and a military background will earn me security clearance that I would otherwise not be able to receive.

What I can say, is no matter who you are, keep on pushing through, you live this life for yourself and don't let anyone.... anyone... bring you down.

Not OP and not joining the military, but I share some of your feels. I study every day (engineering major), exercise often, ride motorcycle, read poetry, and am currently self-teaching my third language. I'm surprised I didn't join the military, to be honest, but I've come to value self-discipline so much that it's alienated me from a lot of my peers.

Well, you ignored the much stronger issue, the one that is clearly the problem:
we have to teach youthful people.

these are people who, all their twelve years of life, have been taught mostly to play and be silly and that dependence is expected and okay.
Then, within 5-8 years, convert them to beings who are independent, self-guided, self-motivated, responsible, and see their own actions, behavior and plans in the long-term.
Even worse, recently decades society has impressed on them that they should _also_ be entertained at all times, that everything they do is magnificent, everything is about hedonism, greed, and bluster.
And we're doing this during their adolescence, puberty, and their most social behaviors are being explored.

The problem isn't that high school doesn't expect very much -- it's that we have to do it to them at a very difficult time.

The good thing about the transition past high school is that colleges vary; of course one might be too hard for some. That's why college reputations still might mean something. Not everyone admitted should graduate.

My tattoo behind my ear needs one more laser procedure before it is completely removed.

Other than that, to get a decent government job you have to be active within the community from basically the start of high school and be very professional.

>>4446289
Yeah, the self-discipline part of you will go a long way. Good job on the third language though; I am thinking about learning Arabic or German.
