All I want to say to you is: Choose your friends wisely. Is the so called 'intelligent' group a bunch of friendly people or are they all obnoxious? Just wondering, what exactly are you aiming for in terms of careers?
They're great people. Respectful, joke around, know how to have a good time, but they are also {too} innocent. Meh I just feel like I'm in the wrong body. I don't deserve my natural aptitude (I mean it's not amazing, but there are people who work harder than me who are doing worse). Teachers in my school know I don't do anything in class. I havn't read through my workbook with the intentions of learning things since the start of this year and yet I'm acing most of my subjects (About 4 100%'s in science so far this year). I want a kick out of life, do crazy things. I don't want to just work hard and be successful. My career goals are probably way too ambitious. At the moment my plans are civil/software engineering and then try start a company and then when I'm older put all my money into helping people (following the footsteps of someone I respect greatly).

Please elaborate (sorry carrot).
I'll elaborate to avoid him exaggerating things =)

Cafe: I paid ~$7 for a bowl of wedges with a $50 note and walked off with the chips. Forgot the change.

Bookstore: The book was $45 and I gave the guy $50. However, for some reason, the price registered as $55 in my head so I said "Oh wait" and gave him another $10 note, only to then realise that I already had enough.

Carrot's finest moment. Treat it as a donation to your university. You probably forgot about the change in the 1st scenario unless 7=50...

When I went to USYD with carrot we went for lunch at this cafe place. Our lunch costed ~$14, carrot hands over a $100 note and walks out of the cafe.

Then we went to the book store, and he finds a nice books on the irrationals that he decides to buy. We get to the counter and the guy says it will be $45, so carrot pulls out a $50 note and hands it over. We should just wait for change now right? Nope, not carrot, he starts pulling out more money and hands it over. The guy behind the counter is just like "wtf? you already paid more than enough".

And so ends the chronicles of carrot's maths failures.

I don't deserve my natural aptitude (I mean it's not amazing, but there are people who work harder than me are doing worse). Teachers in my school know I don't do anything in class. I havn't bothered to re-read a thing in my boko yet, though I'm acing most of my subjects. (About 4 100% in science so far). I want a kick out of life, do crazy things. I don't want to just work hard and be successful. My career goals are probably way too ambitious.

In all honesty, I think they would be a decent group to hang out with - positive influence. Do you like crazy things? Go for your life and do them though I pray nothing horrible happens to you or people around you. I haven't actually met a single person who's studied all throughout his/her life. Of course, no one in their right mind could or even should do that - it's silly. Take breaks, have fun in life and whatever your aims, it can't be achieved without some form of hard work. Also, seems great donating back to the community. :)

hahahahahahhahaah, this reminds me of something hilarious even though it was quite serious.

In year 7, me and a friend of mine would randomly chuck money into the air and people would start chasing the notes. In the beginning it was pretty fine coz we were only chucking like coins and shit. But then we started chucking notes and it got to the point of like $50 (my friend actually did this, no way in hell I would throw away that much. He actually stole the money from one of his siblings too) and people started killing others for it. There would be a fucking brawl for the money. We were just standing there laughing our asses off, didn't last for too long but damn was it great..

I highly doubt that considering you don't know what a discrimant is.

But you're probs a bad alt anyway so doesn't matter.
Thats an exaggeration...
Ah, it looks like i don't know what it is, its just i over-thinked haha (i was only confused on >= and >)

Btw, what is meant by a "bad alt"?
