Alright NT I will try to keep this brief.
So I am a 21 year old that lives at home with my well off parents.
Nice house, big room, all that jazz.
They are cool with me as long as I pay my bills, keep the house clean, and cook dinner 3-4x/week
Both parents have good jobs and a strong marriage.
I have 2 sisters that have graduated from college and are climbing the latter.
I went to college as soon as I got out of high school and was supposed to play basketball for my university. I was 18 back then.
Long story short I partied 24/7, got kicked off the team, and neglected schoolwork.
I did well enough not to get kicked out of my university but to top it all off my best friend from freshman year committed suicide during the summer off. I never got to say goodbye obviously and hadn't really seen him in about 3 months to know what went on with him.
I took a leave of absence and told myself I would go back. I run a small landscaping odd job business during the summer and can usually make a couple grand. But last summer business vanished. I got a DUI my senior year in HS, and another one I am fighting still last summer. I could face 3 months in jail if convicted but I got the best lawyer in my area so I have faith.
Since the summer I started getting into things I am not proud of. Just living the fast life basically.
I have been sober for about a month now and was never a really big user to begin with.
My question to you would be WTF would be your plan of action if you were in my shoes?
College is BS and is off the table.
Minimum wage is BS I'm good on that.
Military won't accept me with my criminal record.
I've been thinking trade school like a welder or something.
Also around here you can make big bank if you work for a natural gas drilling company.
I had a gas job paying 2k every 2 weeks but got fired for failing a piss test.
I don't have my license due to the DUI I got last summer. Til Nov. 2013
Help a dude out with some positive info or something. All feedback is good.
