Ay, so I need some advice from people who've got more life experience than I have. This year, in my first year of college (in the Netherlands) I failed due to my own behaviour, 18 years old of age and I'm getting kicked out of school on the first of May. I need to wait till late August till I can go back, this means for three or four months I've got nothing going on in my life whicj I value. May, June, Juli, August are months that I wont be doing what I did, gave some meaning to my day and a reason to wake up and get dressed and all in the morning. I know it sounds nerdy but I enjoyed my days in college a lot, they were inspiring and I felt like I was working towards a better career for in my future.

I'm going back in September, but what do I need to do till then? I've got a job recently, working at a helpdesk and taking calls in the evening but that isn't giving my a similair fullfilment compared to school. Without a college degree you can't ask for much better in my country. I know I need to carry this out but does anyone has some advice for me to make my life easier during these months and what I need to till then and keep myself busy and in good shape?

All the advice is appreciated

Parties, girls, music, alcohol, vacations, sand beaches, friends, chill-outs, bikinis, BBQs, etc.

That should make one hell of a Summer, Gian.

I've always considered school and similar responsibilities to be pretty much unavoidable as if I have no other options.

Lame advice I know, but not questioning it works for me.

If I had four months free right now I'd pack some gear into a backpack and get the cheapest flight to Thailand, then take it from there.

No partying if that is the reason you are getting kicked out

He didn't say anything about partying, and is it really relevant now he has already failed? Besides, it's only a small part of travelling, and you can work the whole time if you want. At this time of the year work is extremely easy to find in coastal areas if you speak English, and you can meet new and different people.

    Hit the gym brother and lift some heavy weights.

    It will give your life a meaning plus you'll have a way to release your stress.
    Thought about doing that. Might be right for me.

    Sounds great, but my parents are pissed and dont even let me out now. The reason of getting kicked out is too much partying, way too much so I dont think they would like it if kept ongoing with that.

    Sounds good, didnt think about it. Could be definitley an adventure. Thats some great advice, considering it right now. Thanks for the tip.

    Not sure what else to do in the Summer then. If not a vacation, then what Dule said or maybe some other sport.

    He answered the bit about partying and it was easy to guess coz that is me a few years ago,and it is relevant because u he needs to get away from things that failed him in the first place.

    Gian,i dont know how to handle your situation since you are living with your parents but that will work for your advantage,get a job and do what dusan said,get sincere and you cant judge urself so most important thing for you should be hearing from your parents that you look sincere.
    Its gets easy afterwards

    I agree with hitting the gym and I also suggest you start learning anything.. read lots of books, learn a language or a skill, take courses in fields related to your major, don't waste anymore precious time :tup:
    I would've also suggested you get a job before all that but I see you already did, best of luck bro : )

    If you were kicked out of school for your own behavior then do all the things you did that got you kicked out (parties, drinking, etc.) so when you go back in september you will have gotten over that phase and are ready to study and graduate

    Well I would make sure I'm over the heavy partying phase in my life before I go back to college so I wouldn't screw it all over again
