Well it's for highschool, but it's not so much that I care about my marks, but my parents do and I try my best to please them since they put a lot of pressure on me to succeed like a typical Asian family would. They already know that I'm doing badly in Physics and if I bomb this then I'm as good as fucked. I really do not want to repeat this course because the Physics department in my school is full of blubbering vaginas that can't teach and make simplistic things overly complicated. I know it is only highschool and I shouldn't be too concerned, but my parents have always pushed me to excel in school even though I absolutely hate it. I guess when you're drilled on a regular basis from when the time you're sucking your mom's tit until now that you'll live a pathetic life if you don't get high marks in school will kind of impact your way of thinking, no?

Hate to go into semi-rant mode, but this also leads me into another rant about how I have no fucking idea on what I'm going to go into in the future. I hate absolutely everything in school and I show no interest in any subject and like I said before, my parents really push me to pursue a career that makes a lot money (something like engineering, computers, accounting, business, etc.) instead of something that I'm interested in (which I haven't found yet, but I find story writing and English somewhat pleasing for me even if I'm not that good in it). I know I sound like an emo kid on the verge of an identity crisis, but I guess it is a mix of the truth and procrastination from actually doing my physics project. :lol:

Its_asdf, no one knows what they wanna do in High school, hell alot of people change career ideas when they're 30, you got time.

Also, as for the picking a job you enjoy versus money it comes down to choice: do something you like and be dirt poor, or do something you hate and be rich...i tend to lean towards the poor side of things.

Relax. I'm a few years into my career and I'm not even completely certain what I want to do with my life. :wink: It's completely normal for you not to know now, or even at the beginning, middle, or even for some, the end of college. Stressing over it isn't going to help you along, either.

Too true. You'll work it out eventually. I thought I wanted to study law. But now I'm finally here I think I want to become a researcher in Holocaust and Genocide studies. You'll find something you're passionate about and motivated to do. But as Bighort said, you might know until your in college, and like me you might not even be 100% sure then.

I can't not marry her. I can't. If there is right & wrong, it just wouldn't be right to not marry her.

Either her or no one. She's mini me. She's the Yang to my Ying. :(

I won't rag on you Drex, see rant way below.
Jackal's right but don't wait for luck. Make your own luck.

Don't forget to share the champagne Jackal when you get hitched.


The music in that one sounded like from a 70's porn movie.

Stop trying. You're time machine won't work. Your plan B of a perpetual motion machine won't either. Never will.

You're Asian? I thought you were black.
I also thought Qballer was white.

Don't fret about not knowing what to do with your life right now, asdf. Most people older than you also doesn't know what to do with their life. Don't worry also about the exact details of what you want to do. Just have an outline and believe in yourself to seize opportunities that will lead to your goal, short-term or long-term.

FOR MY STEAM RANT:

I lost my mojo.

A fine lady kept staring at me, repeatedly. After being sure that there is nothing in my face or anything embarrassing, I concluded that she digs me.
Here's the catch, she just stares on and off, no smile, no facial movements, no nothing.
Deal is, I'm used when a girl looks and smiles at me then I answer back with a smile. I'm not used initiating a smile because the woman might mistake me for a perv.

To make matters worse, that situation already happened twice with two different women. I felt helpless to do anything.
I feel that I just lost my balls. *sigh*

(Any room for a threesome with Jackal and Drex?)

You know my motto, the more the merrier.

The champagne won't be busting out for awhile, as I said, I'm currently dating the 17 year old but am haplessly in love with the 19 year old, she told me to be patient. For once, I didn't take offense.

Women, they make us ball-less.

Give it up Q.
Jackal may occassionally cross the line of the love that knows no gender, but I'm pretty sure he wants to marry a woman and not you.
