How immature and irresponsible are you?

edited December 2010 in General Chat
Well, my life, as I see it. I'm 23 years old, and today I was 3 hours late to work and found out that I had failed one of the two classes I had taken for college. I dropped the third earlier.

I have no idea how to bank, I know nothing about cars...I keep falling behind, I can't ever manage anything. I feel like in my mind it's one cluster after the other, and then beyond myself, externally people just look at me and tell me it's nothing yet.

I don't know, I mean from my perspective, which is just mine, I don't think I was taught responsibility soon enough to be able to practice it. At 22 years old I got my first job...

I wish I could be so much more, I aspire to be more, but that's just what I perceive would be more. I don't want to be something I'm not, I just want to have a foot hold, be prepared.

Yes, of course if you don't see yourself as immature, irresponsible for your failings, then that's fine, please share anything you got for me. Everyone sees something the same differently.

    Hello me.

    I like the way you're open about your life to the anonymous strangers on internet. I still think it might be too open, but what the hell, it's your life. I sense you wait for something, or you search for it to happen. Whatever it is, if it helps, I have to say, you're not alone in your goal.

    Now back on topic... Yes, well, is it immaturity that's wrong, or maturity? Do you have to self-check everytime you oppose others, or do you want to start checking others?

    It took me most my life to be that open minded of others, or at least try to be. The way I personally see it, I'm still comfortable. I've shared too much before and had a web stalker.

    I'm trying to better myself, I really am.

    I'm not going to say what you're sensing is wrong or right because no matter what, we're likely to always view my life differently. We're separate people. From my own two shoes though, I got admit, I lack the words to describe myself that I need.

    Thanks for sharing guys/ girls.

    That is why I wasn't specific about what you seek. I just say it, from all your posts that you send here I see that you're aware of your freedom unlike many people are.

    In case any one is wondering

    I'll have to give it a go some time, perhaps.

    This is very interesting. I never thought I was aware of my freedoms. I always thought I was paranoid and felt I was being suppressed in some way. But, truth be told, there's no right or wrong, and maybe I'll look twice at my own attitude.

    I think I could stand to be more positive and your post has made me think of that. Thanks for sharing your perspective.

    Anyone, feel free to jump in :D

    I am 16 going on 17 and not quoting a musical here.

    I think about what normal teenagers think about but don't let it get the better of me. I want to learn too many things at once, including Guitar and Japanese.

    I crack jokes, not so much that I get in trouble though. I've got emotional problems for no apparent reason, but I've made major progress there in the past year.

    I am under the impression that anything can be taken the wrong way, and I will be sure to let people know when I found something wrong.

    Basically, I'm a teenager, just one with above average intelligence

    I'm 25, don't have any work, am failing college (I'm doing the same three-year course in my fifth year now), and, until only three years ago, had no friends. The friends I have now probably are more successful than I am. I'm still a virgin (although that's mostly because of my extremely high standards), never even had a girlfriend, and pretty much have a low self-esteem. The only thing I do with my life is following a dream and living in a fantasy.

    Also, that teddybear I often try to put as an easter egg in some of my work? It's based on a real teddybear I still have around here.

    Oh, and according to my old therapist, I have autistic tendencies. Haven't been clinically diagnosed with autism (yet) though.
