Thanks guys, your comments took a weight off my shoulders! :D :jointsmile:
I'm in the same spot as you, but in my senior year of college. I'll be graduating with a degree in history that I have no idea what to do with and a gpa that is depressing at best. Sucks, I know. But I know I'll be alright, and if I'll be alright anyone will.
Fuck man, I got A's in highschool and now I'm stuck whether or not I want to go really go to college.
I'm leaning towards, at least right now, just doing construction. If I go to school for a few years to learn some construction management theory and other junk, then I can get a job anywhere in the world doing construction and making money at it too.
Anywhere you go, peope willing to do manual labor is getting in demand. Look into construction or something of the sort to start you out. It's great experience and good money, except it is hard work all day for 10 hours for me. But 50 hours a week at $10 per/hour ain't bad. Especially when you paid every week. I'm making about 450 a week and I'm just startin'.

Go to a community college. You can spend a couple years there until you figure things out and then move to a 4-year college when you're ready. Just relax and realize it will work out if you want it to. You are the only one in control of what you actually can do.
Depending on your GPA, standardized test scores, and family history, some colleges have special programs that will accept students who didn't reach their full potential in highschool. I know a kid who graduated with a 2.1 GPA, but since noone in his family had ever gone to college, Indiana University accepted him into a special program.
