I didn't finish college, but in fairness, I was bullied straight the fuck out. :x It was a small college and I couldn't go anywhere. And it wasn't just my paranoia, the girl actually threatened to "call her old gang up and have them come run me down with their guns"

And the school refused to do anything about it because "she hadn't actually assaulted me...yet"


I might go back later this year for a couple classes, but IDK.

monstahh: Can't you go to another college, or do online college?

I lasted this long because I spent too many semesters taking just 3 classes each semester, and I didn't declare my major until I was a junior.

Thanks hummy: I wish I could stick around for the event more, but I have tomorrow off, so I'm most definitely being here as much as I can then.

I don't think there's anything bad being in college still at 23. I'm 21 and I'm technically a freshmen in a university because I spent three years in a community college.

I think it's better to be in school as long as possible because jesus, the real world is scary. Degrees don't guarantee a job. So I don't want to be pushed out too fast.

Yeah, I'm scared to get my first real job. I only had one job in my life, when I was 21 and it was only during the summer.

The problem i've found with jobs is that you either need a job before, or to know someone who can get you a job.

I've applied to at least 10 jobs in the past year, and got none. I have no experience, and am shy, so no one seems to want to hire me.

I'm having the same problem, Mew. They say volunteering helps. Sadly, I can't volunteer anywhere locally. Places are either too far (to walk or take a bus), or conflict with my allergies in an unavoidable fashion (animal shelter) or are only open to students.
It suuucks.

I could volunteer, but I am still in school and it takes a lot of effort for me to pass tests because I am bad at taking tests. Plus, next semester is gonna be packed with hard classes.

I've volunteered a bit before though, but before college. When I was young, at our Humane Society, and in high school, volunteered for a couple hours at the zoo with my friends, did Relay for Life, and volunteered at a race with my parents.

Well, the problem is, I don't really want to go back to school. :/ Not unless I can drive and I'm only taking a few classes. I also have no desire to rack up thousands of dollars in debt that I will spend the rest of my life paying off, while working at McDonald's because my degree is worthless.

Does your college offer any internship classes? Because that could help out to land a job.

Not sure if my school has internships, but I don't think I'd do well. It's hard to remember all the info for my major and I don't know if I'd go in the field that I am majoring in. I am in college just because I know it's important to go, but I may just use my degree on my resume as showing that I went to college.

I am majoring in art history, but it's hard to remember all of that info, too much.

Art history is kindof a worthless degree, no offense (you need to work in a museum or something so you'd need to go to school for that too, probably another Anthropology degree and maybe even Library science!). My boyfriend graduated with a degree in Cultural Anthropology and has never been able to do anything with it. :/ I want to go into Psychology and Education (middle or high school). But that's a tough field to get into, and even a small smirch can fuck you over from working in education and taking away your livelyhood. D: Which is scary.

That's why I said I will probably just use it to show I went to college and pursued something, but that's about it.

It's the thing I most enjoy in college, of all of the majors.

Hey, if I had it my way, I'd make my own major and major in moden music, 50s-present, and just be a modern music historian. That, or a fashion stylist, but these things aren't majors in college.

There are other colleges that have programs like that, including "make your own majors." But those are often very large schools and not good fits for everyone.

I looked up what Art History majors can become. While most use it as a minor, there's an option to be an Art Consultant.

Well, it's kinda late now to change my major when I spent so much of my parent's money and am almost ready to graduate.

Thanks for making me feel great about my choice in college.
