   I went to university when I was 17, and I was such a little faggot. I failed all my classes, but that's besides the point -- the point was I was an autistic, weird fucking virgin to all my classmates.
   
   Holy fuck, it's so embarrassing looking back on that shit.
   
   If I went back now, it'd be good to note how the experience would be different for me, just based on the fact that I'm no longer an autistic faggot. I'm somewhat normal now.

   You should study chemistry. You can learn enough to keep you busy all the time, and meet a bunch of girls who's time you can buy by being really good at learning the material and then helping them with questions until you can build enough familiarity with them that you can get used to interacting with them and then chill with them, get laid and stop being so angry (about that).

   Well to be honest, there are various jobs, but none of them are going to be really high pay if that's what you are after. A friend got their BS in chem and helped make methadone, but there's a lot more than that. But you should really go for more than money, in my opinion. You could probably benefit from it in a lot of other ways.
   
   But if you want money, do engineering. Just be aware that it kinda steals your soul at times.

   Yes it does. There's a saying among machine operators:
   
   "In engineering school, they sap all of the common sense out of your brain, and replace it with theory.
   
   What results is one who is extremely keen on how things SHOULD work, but no idea how things DO work."

    I think it's more the fact that you can teach theory, and most people can learn it if they just persevere, but you can't really teach common sense.

    What do you want to do with your life? Meaning, what career do you want? Don't just go to college just to go to college. Figure out what you want to do, research the qualifications, and go get qualified. You might not even need a degree.
    
    As far as learning for learnings' sake, you can do that for free online with independent study. You don't need a classroom per se to learn stuff.
