University - A very underwhelming experience

I always thought university would be the most important part of my life; moving to another city, meeting new people, making friends and memories. Being raised in a small town I thought it was the place limiting me, so a bigger city would be different. I thought things that would change my life would happen.

But two years flew by and it's already senior year. It feels like it was just yesterday that I enrolled at university, all anxious and excited.

This whole experience has been underwhelming and I can't help but blame myself. Are my friends not fun enough? Am I not going out enough? Am I missing out on life?

These questions keep circling my head and I fear the answer to all of them is yes.

I did not think turning 20 would be so confusing and uncertain. I did not think I would be doubting everything like this.

College and university is not what it’s propped up to be and is sadly largely a waste for a lot of the times. It’s just a system like banking now where it’s grown so much that it just needs to keep growing without doing much that’s useful.
