Okay so I found out today that I missed the first part of my English final. Basically I have two days (100 minutes) to write an essay for my final and I missed the first day. I think that I can write the essay in one class if my teacher actually allows me to do it but I don't even know if she'll let me take it since I missed the first day. Anyway, I'm taking 6 classes and I am potentially failing 3 of them. Also the reasons I am failing is not ORG-related. This was my first semester at college so I think I had issues with adjusting and applying myself the right way.

SO ANYWAY, if I fail my classes I'm considering dropping out of college and just living in my car or finding some sugar daddy or something who can support me until he dies AND THEN living in my car.

So, anyway, here is your task:

a - Convince me that failing a few classes in my first semester is not a huge deal and doesn't mean I have to drop out.

or

b -

actually just do a.

k, go!

Also I go to a community college so a lot of people there are doing even worse than I am grade-wise so in your response don't forget to mention how I am at least better than they are!

Mikester, where is your parents?

Anyway, keep pushing and pushing. Some time in your life, you're going to fail and this experience will just hone you in life and when you fail again, you'll get used to it and you will not feel like giving up on life anymore.

What if I *can't* do it? What if I fail that class and then I fail my other three classes (I actually have no idea if I am or not. I feel like I'm leaning on a C+ average in all three of them). WHAT DO I DO IF I FAIL?

MY LIFE IS OVER :( :(

Did you start passing things? Is your life on the right track or are you useless like me, too?

Thanks for reminding me that even though I'm failing at life I'm still not YOU.

Have you tried sex with the male professors?

I had an awful sophmore year. Like incredibly bad but you'll adjust.
Suck it up bitch and use your epic ORG skills to outwit motherfuckin' community college.

My parents are here but I'll feel like such a :loser if I'm still living with them by the time I'm like 21.

Thanks for the advice! I hope you're right, but I also hope I don't fail anymore after this :lol:

I made a 1.0 (yes, really) my first semester of college and ended up graduating with honors. It's a change and you need to acclimate yourself to the life. Don't give up on it. This might be shitty advice but you can always retake a class.

Now if you were the only college freshman that was doing poorly gradewise, then there's cause for concern but I assure you, many others out there (like you said) are doing worse.

Can you make a thread where we convince you to give up on life? I'll respond properly in there.

Yeah that's the attitude.

Well, about the parents thingy, I think it is their responsibility to pay for your tuition fees and after you graduate, you still need them. I'm sorry but that's just the fact. It's up to you though if you want to live from your own labor.

By the way, it doesn't mean that if you fail at school, you fail at life too. :shrug

Seriously college is like CPN5 I can't beat it :( :(

And no I have not tried sex with the male professors but coincidentally the three classes I am failing are female professors. :( I only have one male professor and I'm doing fine in that class. *sigh*

You can do it. It takes awhile to adjust to college, but once you get through this semester, you'll feel so much better.

But dont take 6 classes at once again. That's nuts.

Thank you, that does make me feel a lot better. But if you fail, that is always on your records right? I'm just concerned that even if I do well in the next few semesters the failing grades will be on my records forever and ever and then I'll never get into another college and then I'll never get a good job and be rich like I was supposed to be. :(
