in college...not really feeling it. can't find anything that interests me. Me and the girl are heavily considering moving out of the country, getting simple jobs, surf, whatever, lead a simple life. college really isn't for me, not at the moment anyways. I like commas, I really do.

I'm in college right now. Can you guess where? I was in the Marines before this, but that life wasn't for me. Now I think I'm the oldest freshman here.....

Last semester at University of Central Florida here. Graduation is in May and i have no idea where or what I'm going to do. Im currently stressed and looking for job's everyday so i have something when i graduate. I'm a business management major with a minor in real estate. I wanted to work in real estate but its soo bad right now I'm going to do something else and wait for the market to pick back up. I wish i was a freshman again when i had no worries.

dropped out of college in 2nd year, after they took almost 8-grand in grants/scholorships away because they said i "mayde too much money while being a college student",this being after they awarded me with the grants/scholorships. decided i wasnt going to fork over that much dough to a private school when i could go to a university for less than what i had left in grants and scholorships. i'll prolly go back when i get around to it...

Went to technical school during my last 2 years of high school for Electrical Construction, graduated at the top of my class. Currently an electrician. :-p. Hopefully very soon, a union electrician.

Apparently you may have wanted to stay in English class a bit longer - lol. Seriously, read what you typed and ask yourself if this makes sense. Seems like there is a real story here, but I can't make it out. Do tell us more.

Went to college and did not finish due to situation I put myself in. Major was electrical engineering, anyone take calc 2, ouch. Went to work to support my daughter which I had when I was 17. I was lucky enough to get hired by a Fortune 500 company and have been working hard to move up the corporate ladder. My daughter is 18 now and most think she is my girlfriend or sister .
