What would Quentin Compson do?

I always think about that when everything in life just go to the point where I have reached my breaking point. I mean I have been a college student for three weeks now and lets say I figured out that its tough out there. I always feel like Im playing some sort of game from people that I "falsely" believed that I liked to the game of social networking and getting the dream college experience. I always feel like at the end of the night that I never gave it my best, I feel that I have failed my family and everyone around me. Through these three weeks I have always gave the reference of Quentin Compson to everyone I talked to. Some days I feel that I could just give it up like Quentin then but then my other side of my mind tells me "No, you are going to be another statistic." I feel that what I have expereinced lately is a sense of self doubt I mean I am not going to lie I have meant fantastic people but at the same time I also have met people who have pushed me to my breaking point and/or thought that I was "falsely" attracted to them.
I feel some days that doing what Quentin Compson would slove everything. It would solve my problem of being stuck in time, it would solve so many problems that I have been encountering lately that I would feel like that I am finally free from society and all the conformities that it brings. South Dakota State University has to me brought me some challenges and also has given me regrets of why I came here I thought last night "God, I made the most horrible mistake of my life, why did I do this, I could of gone to Laramie County Community College (LCCC) and I could of done so much better." I feel like I do not belong here in this university I mean I have lost all confidence in what I do. It feels like that all I can do is continously hit myself with a hammer untill the pain goes away. Some could say that I am being over dramatic about it but behind my hazel eyes (no reference intended) I see that I cant find my true place here at SDSU. As I continue to write here, I believe that through these times that I would be doing more self reflection and self discovery and to continue living in a thought box that is every changing and live with the fact that my current struggle is that I have made the greatest mistake of my life.
