Choose something. There are people with dozens of different professions that are still very well known. If you can't find out what you like, well, that just confuses me.

No, I don't agree, I work hard, I work VERY hard, I mean I've got a great education, I'm doing a masters and I'm in the process of applying for a PhD. But I don't have any talent in particular that makes me special, something different from the average Joe at the end of the day.

Well then, work hard towards gaining a new talent. Doing well in school is great, but if you're talking about other things, those just require hard work as well.

You can be rich and happy, you can also be rich and unhappy. Even though success and happiness have a correlation (I would imagine), it's not like they are joined together at the hip.

I would always rather be happy than rich though, I've never really cared for money and material possessions, it's something a lot people have always said about me. I think I've always put mine and other peoples happiness in front of money and possessions.

I mean, I like video games but I don't want to or know how I can make one. Even if I wanted to be an artist, someone who wants to play an instrument, some super hacker, etc I needed to have started long before.

I'm actually kinda feeling down in my Freshman year since so many kids already know what they want to be (my roomate wants to be a doctor), and I have NOTHING. Absolutely NOTHING. I came to college just because it's what everyone's doing and felt like the natural next step. In reality, I have no ambition.

I'm a guy that loves to be bossed around. If someone coaches me, dicates my actions, etc I'll do it to my fullest effect. But when given nothing, I'll just waste away.

My purpose in life is pleasure, I love food, I love games, I love movies, I love masturbating, I love sleeping, I love taking hot baths in my parents' jaquzee (sp?), I love reading the books I like to read, I love to fucking stare at shit that I find interesting (a ground covered with granite in a really bright day, bugs, rust, RAINY DAYS are fucking awesome), I like to listen to random music, etc.

I can't really dedicate myself to that though... the only thing I can dedicate myself is to get a job so I can enjoy those things... there's no job that I actually desire O.o

I was told something by my mentor who has been making a living off of stand up comedy for 17 years (rob little). Its not who is the most talented, but who is the most resilient. I think you can apply that wisdom towards anything.

Isn't that basically what I said?

Haha.  Reminds me of me.

Ironically though I later realized I actually do enjoy making complex systems, math and such.

My advice would be....

chances are you really like something that people have spent all their lives convincing you nobody likes... try stuff you've never really tried or looked into because people told you you'd never like it.

Yeah it was, but I just put it in my own words lol.

"I remember once imagining what my life would be like, what I'd be like. I pictured having all these qualities, strong positive qualities that people could pick up on from across the room. But as time passed, few ever became any qualities that I actually had. And all the possibilities I faced and the sorts of people I could be, all of them got reduced every year to fewer and fewer. Until finally they got reduced to one, to who I am. And that's who I am, the weather man." (8:06)

The entire movie was great for me >.<

Even though it's not the scene with the quote, the dad and son scene in the beginning of that clip is reallt heart breaking, I teared up when I saw it. I mean, he's a flawed man, but he has a dream for a better future and self, a dream that's doesn't seem out of ordinary or impossible, but in reality is. The fact that it's such an believable situation and character made me tear up.

I think that Cage was made for this role, especially with the hate/love he gets in real life.
