The last thing I want to do in life is slave away at a crappy 9-5 dead end job for the majority of my adulthood. I want to travel the world, I want to meet new people, I want to do new things, if I were to write everything in my bucket list I would need 3 pages of paper to get only half of them written down
the way things are looking tho my dreams may not come true. I'm not academically gifted (I can say goodbye to colleague), my family is dirt poor, I'm probably dreaming so big things are bound to go wrong, Like Icarus flying so high towards the sun his wings melted and fell to the ocean floor, idk tho
life is too boring anyways, I wish to make the most out of my life b4 I get too old, if not then c'est la vie

I feel this deep down in my heart. I don't care if I'm poor and go broke in the future from doing what I love for a living, because that's still preferable to making lots of money but being miserable and having your soul crushed and drained through every step of it.
If being broke means being happy, then so fucking be it, because life is too fucking short to waste it being deeply miserable throughout most of it when you only have about 80 or so years to live.
Maybe spending many of my teen years depressed on and off has seriously changed my outlook on life, I don't know. But what I do know is that my overall long term happiness and mental health take priority and precedent over anything else. Plus, money really doesn't mean shit when you'll still be miserable and not living a very enjoyable life (or one that you really see as worth living) anyways.

Biggest tip, don't be bored. Find things to do. There are many things you can do on a budget. A fixed paying job doesn't necessarily need to be fun. As long as you are able to still make space for having fun outside of it. Meeting new people and experiencing new things.

I agree. Honestly, I think living a boring life is the last thing I want. I just hope that after finishing my studies, I can save money and leave my country. I love where I live, but honestly, I’d rather learn another language and leave, maybe to Italy, study at university there. And if I’m lucky, I’ll die before I’m 50, because the last thing I want is to reach that age.

im not sure if this will help, but the mindset that i took into my life that has made all the difference (to a point where i can genuinely say that, right now, i am happy) is that rather than seeing those dreams as the only thing to make you happy, look into what you can have right now
im going to move countries and i have ambitious dreams and plans, however, i will not sit in misery until i do move, until i achieve those dreams
i will take joy into the things that i will do until then, like learning a new language, perfecting my craft, working on my projects, make new routines, spend time with people. those are happy moments you can get right now! meanwhile, you can keep working towards those dreams!
