I feel old, and need to vent..

I'm 18, and i feel fucking old. Like i haven't done
anything for the last 2 years except a diploma which was
piss easy. I didn't really finish school either, i just
fucked around and did nothing. Now i'm regretting it, or
maybe it's just in my head. I feel like i'm having a
mid-life crisis, wtf? I'm going to university next year, but
that still doesn't take away my waste of 2 years. Have i got
much to look forward to or just fucking work and bullshit
for the rest of my life? Anyone older that went through the
same shit? I feel like i could have accomplished alot more
than what i have today.

yeah, but you'll get over it quick cuz life don't wait man,
it just goes and goes and never stops coming at you so you
just move on get over it and put it all past you and start
looking towards the future although it may seem dark imagine
all the cool people you'll meet and lall the cool stuff
you'll do it's fun!

Yep, I know the feeling.
I didn't do anything this year,and I'm 20 .
But the moment I knew what I was gonna do next year, that
feeling went away.
I also could have accomplished more,but WHY?
Later,man!
You're 18.
NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT!

When I was 18, I was really excited about what was going to
happen next - so I can't really relate to how you are
feeling.

Since then I've done a lot of working and playing around and
ended up traveling through a good bit of the world. I was
having fun then and still am now.

It just depends on your outlook. Yeah there's going to be
work and bullshit, just don't let it consume your life.

mid life crisis ?

nah , you have to have your post-adolescent
adulthood-confusion-dilemma first .

And by the sounds of it , you're having it right about now.


Don't fret about these phoney goals like 'diplomas' or
'degrees' being worth the paper they're written on... Take
the things you really enjoy
(music,sport,socialising...whatever) and expand yourself
that way.

Maybe full-time education isn't for you, I know loads of
people who did it with apathy, as a doss, or without knowing
why, or with false reasons (like, you have to go to uni
after school)
Don't expect these courses to challenge you... You have to
challenge yourself methinks :

Cool, thanks guys. Well you've given me a few things to
think about. Thanks alot. Once i get a car and my shit
together i think i'll be fine. And i need to take up a few
more hobbies or something aswell, otherwise i think too
much.
