    And if I remember correctly, last time someone mentioned those rules, someone else said they wee for /jp/ - Japan/General, and not for /jp/ - Otaku Culture. Guess they should only be followed when they favor you, right.

    Today I woke up at 2PM. It was very quiet and a bit chilly in my room, probably because I turned off my computer before I went to sleep. I drowsily stood up and stumbled to the window and opened my blinds. Through the window, in the neighbor's front yard, I witnessed my neighbor's daughter practicing gymnastics. That scene made me realize that spring had finally arrived. I began thinking of the months to come, the great weather, the return of birds to the area, the smell of the blooming flowers. One thing that I wasn't thinking of, however, was the fact that I was having this realization while watching this little girl in her front yard. She must have seen me gazing, because she packed up the pads soon after and went inside. I blew it off and turned around and walked out my door into the kitchen to get some food. My choice was a large piece of dark chocolate cake with whipped cream and chocolate ganache. The remnants of the birthday cake my mother baked for me. When I returned to my room I put some water on the kettle for some tea.

    While I was in the kitchen my mother explained to me that she'd be going on a cruise in a few months and that tonight she was going out to meet my aunt. She also informed me that she would be leaving some money for dinner. I think for dinner I'll get some KFC and eat it earlier than my normal dinner time, maybe around 6PM, and then lay in bed with my laptop and do any combination of writing, posting on /jp/, listening to music, and playing games. I'm excited for my mother going on vacation, partially because that means she finally trusts me enough to leave me alone and also because this house is simply so peaceful when it's empty.

    Do people really find this lifestyle depressing? I couldn't be any happier with my life right now.

    Enjoy it while it lasts. The lightness of being neet might fade sooner than you think. As the years drag on and you've done all the things you like for 10000 times, you're bound to get bored.

    I want in a university, but was majoring in something I really had no interest in. It wasn't a bother the first few years, but eventually I just became entirely apathetic toward working for a goal that I placed no value in. I became suicidal for the simple reason that, while I didn't mind living, I couldn't take the stress of having to move forward in life when I didn't know where I wanted to go.

    Confessing this to my parents, I dropped out, moved back in, and have been a shut in ever since.

    Being NEET isn't fun anymore, I want to do things, actual productive things, but I just cant anymore.
    It makes me feel like shit when I hear my Mother complain about it. Its like every time i try to do something productive, i just end up putting it off more and more, and end up not doing it at all. My mother has noticed it, and she asked me if I want to go see a psychiatrist, but I told her no. I small social problems, but nothing too serious. I just wish i could get off my ass and do something again. When I sit at home, I always have to distract myself with games, or anime or whatever, because when i do think about how shit my life is/will become, i get the urge to kill myself.

    To everyone in this thread who wants to change their place in life, take it one step at a time. It's good to have goals but if you can't have goals, then enjoy the process of finding a goal or path. Enjoy things! Exercise, eat and sleep well, and try to do at least one productive thing a day. If you feel as though you can't get a job at this moment, or school seems daunting, then start out by taking on responsibility at home. Become the KING OF DISHES or look for ways to repay your parents for their kindness, god knows you've got the time!
    I know it's easier to hide and to indulge in things like games and stories. I do that every time I manage to escape from my duties. But there is pleasure and reward in the work of this world.

    I've only been NEET for about a year now. After I finished my masters I was scared shitless of actually going out and finding a job, so I've been staying at home leeching off my parents, but they do not seem to mind. I can't get unemployment since they'd find me a job much too quickly, and have not signed up for unemployment. I've told them I have been saving up unemployment checks for when I move out and I can support myself right off the bat. It's going to bite me in the ass later on, but I'm living now and in the moment, I dont care.

    I have no spending money whatsoever, so all I can resort to is pirating software, /jp/, and sleeping.

    I woke up at 6pm, lay in bed for an hour thinking about how I'll have to not go to University for another year, then got up and turned my PC on. I checked Nyaatorrents for the Itsudatte single, still nothing. I decided since it was Friday I'd go and get some Chinese food, the lady in the shop decided to make small talk. She asked me what I was doing, I said I was still in school. She wrongly assumed I was in a year below the year I lied and said I was in. I ate it at home and felt pathetic afterwards, since I wasted my money on food again. I laddered a little on Starcraft 2, and caught up on this season's anime. At around 1am I found the Itsudatte single had been released on Nyaatorrents. I was elated but decided not to listen to it, since I'm a pathetic Chris Chan fan and was listening to the new calls that had been released. I then played Minecraft for two hours. Then I went on Omegle to pretend to be a 17 year old girl for about four hours. I then went back to Minecraft for a while. Finally I listened to the Itsudatte single and posted this on /jp/. It is now 9:05am and I'm about to go to sleep. All in all a productive day!

    During my second to last semester of college I stopped caring. Missed three of my finals even though I knew the content for all of them. Made up my russian final, but that's only because the teacher called me asking if I wanted to schedule a make up.

    None of them were even challenging classes. I had taken much harder ones and done better on all of those finals.

    I hadn't talked to any of my family for about 6 months before then. For some reason ever since I started school my dad liked to fuck with how much money he'd send me. He'd only send money for tuition and even then it'd be late a few weeks. Well he's my adoptive father. My real father killed himself when I was 5. My mother died when I was 12 of cancer. She owned a small business that cleared a million in revenue when it was sold. Dad still didn't send living expenses or even help pay for my rent. I worked part time since junior year of high school so that was how I paid for books, food, rent, and utilities. Remember once when that ran out and he refused to send money since I wasn't careful with it. Had to call my grandmother for money after I went a week eating tunafish and anything else I could find in my apartment.

    Cut to my final semester with all my classes planned and everything. Figured that what happened last semester was just a fluke and I'd be fine during the new year.

    Problem was I never went to class. I remember my thinking at the time. Oh no one ever goes on the first day. I have a week of absences I can have before I lose a grade. Well it's too late now.

    Dad sent tuition and my living expenses aren't that much. $600 a month for rent and I'd taken to eating every other day so maybe $60 a week spent on food. Didn't consider myself a neet until time for next semester rolled around. Didn't go then either.

    My lease expires in August so I figure I'll join the air force or some other military branch by then. Maybe go back to college if I ever start caring again. Until then vns and anime.

    Hey guys, help me out a little here. The degree I should apply for when finally quitting the NEET lifestyle, should it be electrical engineering or computer engineering?

    This depends what you like doing more. Generally, Electrical Engineering is more involved with physics, power transmission, and playing with electricity/magnetism. Computer Engineering will deal more with computer architecture logic (think binary operations) and maybe some light dabbling in programming. Depends on how the school does it, though. My school had Electrical and Computer Engineering under the same general major with a few minor variations in classes. Best of luck to you and I hope you find something you're interested in.

    No matter how hard I've tried I can't sop being a neet, this world won't let me.

    I apply to many different jobs, no one ever calls me back.
    I go to school and they tell me to come back in 2 weeks, I come back in 2 weeks and the classes I wanted to take are full.

    At night the sunrise comes too soon. I can't get everything I want done.

    In one week I read 10 200-300 page books, this is the first time I've counted how much I read.
    I plan on reading a few books on Nazi Germany and WW2 general this week. So far I've got three 1,000-2,000 page books . I'm also considering reading either Edgar Allan Poe or William Shakespeare, by this I mean reading all their works.

    I recently got a gym membership and have started trying to build muscle, so far it's going well I've managed to put on 7 pounds and I feel a lot better in general. It helps with the crushing depression I get.
    I started seeing a doctor 5 months ago for the depression and he put me on 3 types of anti-depressants, I take a total of 4 pills a day every morning. The doctor says I need to start sleeping during night and stay awake during the day, but it's a habit I can't break (don't want to).

    that's it for my /jp/ blog

    It's hard to make up my mind about it without having tried either of the fields, but what I'm thinking is that I'm afraid of CE getting too abstract and hard to comprehend since it goes a little beyond the physical world, while with EE, I don't think I'd be that interested in stuff like analog electronics and signal processing.

    EE/CE is a pretty broad field, and you can usually get away with not needing a whole lot of exposure in every subject. Maybe at most, you'll have an introductory course in each set. If you really aren't sure, I would suggest starting with EE and if you didn't like the introductory courses for any of the paths, submit a major change to CE. Most schools allow this and the overlap between EE and CE shouldn't make too huge a difference if you can choose what you want to do in the first semester or two. Luckily, at my school, EE/CE was all considered to be EE until you chose your specialization areas in your 3rd and 4th year, and they were pretty flexible in how it worked out. Another thing to consider is that EE is generally more math heavy than CE, and CE is more concept and problem solving heavy. I am pretty bad at memorizing formulas and the like, so I actually did better in CE, but my degree says EE on it.

    What's the difference between CE and CS? Anything?

    I know that feel, signing up for classes can be a pain. Sometimes you can be waitlisted or just audit the classes till the professor lets you in, but I have no idea how that works since I don't like talking to professors to begin with.

    I have also felt that going to the gym has pulled me out of depression and done wonders for my self-esteem and confidence.
