    Had a good few years in college, prob didnt enjoy them as much as I should have but I def learned a lot and am glad I am the person I am because of my college life. Recently started work and Im thinking....is this it? What exciting things are there for me to do in the next few years...apart from being stuck in this job. Sorry, bit unmotivated with life at moment, feel like i should have done something more worthwhile while I had the chance,

    OP its not exactly too late too start doing something you find worthwhile and enjoy, you've only just finished college. There is so much out there to do and so many experiences yet to be experienced.

    One thing you could do is make a list of everything you want in your life, from this point up until retirement include the smallest details if you want and then spend your life going through that list and building upto that final thing on the list.

    If you feel your in a dead end job right now the best thing to do is too stick it out but while your in that job doesnt mean you cant plan what else you want to do and look at other options available to you. Time has not run out for just because you finished college.

    Just my thoughts, keep thinking positive.

    All the best

    That sounds familar.

    I thought like that a bit until i thought about it and realised that if you work a 9-5 the world is sorta set up for you if you want to do something else

    There are evening courses/classes in just about anything you want. Great way to meet people and get active.

    College was nice and handy because everyone any everything was right there on campus or nearby. Clubs/socs, people.

    The thing is though when you leave college you can still find all of that stuff, you need to look for it.

    Thing to do is to look at your job as a means to finance other things in your life. As Agent J says, there are things out there to do if you look for them. You can do night classes, take up new hobbies, buy nice things, take short breaks, go travelling etc.
