SELF LOATHING BIRTHDAY POST.

Posted by Jonas - February 27th, 2008


i am 24 today and wish i was up with my friends. instead i am typing on a cellphone and pulling an all day shift. i am so tired and confused about what i need to do with myself. i think i want to go back to school for programming and learn how to build games or something, but right now i am just bummed feeling emo about stupid stuff because i am currently painted into a corner. i don't have the option of leaving my job but if any of the site folks could give me some solid advice on where i should take myself to break into this kind of field it'd be helpful since currently all i have is sales skills, managerial experience, and minor smatters of art work. this isn't where i need to be, but i am lost as to what i can do to not keep plodding along as a worker drone here. sell sell sell and then die.

Hey Jonas, sorry to hear your troubled. I am too, so I can relate.

I did want to mention though, because your 24 you should be an independent from your parents by law, which means you can receive Financial Aid for school. The amount of money that you can receive is based on your income.

You should go down to the nearest Community College or University and talk to them about getting financial aid. You might even be eligible to get enough money back for school that you could live off of it. Thats what I'm doing anyways.

Goodluck with programming. It's takes a lot of time and care to get good at it.

I fucked up early in my college career, and wound up flunking bad because I ran a newspaper and got caught up in a bunch of shit, so my first initial run back will be most likely on academic probation.

Truth was here

This is like the 4th depressed blog post I've seen today.
you don't have a steady career goal huh? or a purpose for your life?
well, go find it.
