Aiming for polymath-y is a worthy goal. Best of luck.

I'd like to thank mainly Alice and Turncoat. Alice is such a great person to talk to, and Turncoat is an interesting figure. 

Are you seriously taking the time to thank the people who feed you attention? 

I'm putting myself on the path that I found I want. I'm getting another job, and I'm going back to college. I'm going to probably rent an apartment with a friend and split costs. I am also beginning to learn Latin and I find joy in it. I still wish to enter the military, but only after college and when I obtain a degree, that way I could enter in and become an officer. 

Holy shit yes. 

I don't care that your plans for the future still are shitty, this path is better for you imo. 

I feel motivated to become a polymath, and perhaps through learning, it can serve as an outlet to some of my urges that tend to give me euphoria then crash. 

So... in other words you want a bachelors degree in "Undecided"? 

Electives are how to see what you're about, you can always pick your major after two years of schooling like many former classmates I've known have done. 

Perhaps through this I'll even be able to express myself more than how I've portrayed myself. I wish to study Computer Science, Political Science, Philosophy, Economics, and Psychology. 

Only one of those has a career in it for you. 

There is a chance that through this, I could fade out from this site, not yet, but if I do, I'll be sure to make a farewell post, though I doubt I'd ever completely leave until I graduate from college. I'll see. 

Why?

 Is that all this is to you? Is that so? If that's all you can see then I guess I misread our conversations. 

I was just trying to be nice to you on a more open and emotional level, is that not what to be taken that I should try to self-improve and be more open? Sure, maybe in some sense I like the attention, but I was more focused on the actual change, if all you see me as is an attention whore then I don't know why you bother to speak to me, I thought you were trying to help me.

 I'm not going to do a bacherlor's degree in "Undecided" I'm probably going to stick with my original Computer Science major then minor in one of the others.

I'm pretty sure all can certainly help though, career wise, like an actual job wise, it'd be in computer science, but I still think it important to expand your knowledge in all fields.

 I have big ambitions, and I'd make the farewell post to say goodbye to all the people I met here, because I respect people here and view them as acquaintances? It seems like the civil thing to do, rather than just drop off the earth.

I don't see value in my contribution towards you that another couldn't have done by merely spending hours asking you tons of questions. I'm still convinced that your goal in seeking out others is just to have them hold a mirror up to you so that you may better see yourself... but somehow you've found a way to do it selfishly, to the point of not even seeing their entire message for what it is beyond how it weighs against your own. 

I didn't really do anything and don't deserve your thanks beyond the time spent and the attention garnered from it, and thanking me for giving you attention's kinda sad imo.

So you only thanked us out of it being something you're trying to do? 

Why not just do it?

I'm a Feeder when it comes to attention.

Okay that's fair, and realistic.

Do you plan on becoming a professor? 

If not, it'll just make you more well rounded, which is the point of electives in the first place. 

career wise, like an actual job wise, it'd be in computer science, but I still think it important to expand your knowledge in all fields.

I mean, I agree, but many others have differing views there that I can't really dismantle. 

What has you thinking it's important?

I mean why do you figure you'd be too busy to browse a forum? 

Especially if you go into Comp Sci, you're going to have tons of free time on a machine that supports an internet connection.

 I was thanking you for giving your criticisms towards me. I felt like you helped me in some way. I apologize I guess, I didn't mean to offend you in anyway or cause any problems. I just like you in some regard because of your knowledge.

Why not just do it?

 I'm thanking you for making me realize.

 Maybe that's something I could look into, I wish to help others and teach them, but mainly in regards to my views.

Turncoat said:

What has you thinking it's important?

 My goal in life which is to bring about my views, which of course could change, but regardless. Even if it's not "necessarily important" it's still something I want to do. I view it as important, because I want people to become their peak in regards to wealth of knowledge and physical strength. 

Turncoat said:

I mean why do you figure you'd be too busy to browse a forum?

 Maybe I won't be, but I'm just stating because I feel like it would become the case where it's time for me to move on. I already don't entirely feel as if I fit in or am welcome here. I have people here that I like and get along with, then there's others I dream of curb-stomping. 

I'm not offended, I'm just forward and antagonizing. 

On some level I think people need this to try harder.

Who does? 

For real, it comes with the territory. Just don't be a wuss, as much as you can help it, and you're fitting in already. 

I have people here that I like and get along with, then there's others I dream of curb-stomping. 

Isn't that just how life works?
