The title pretty much says it all, but let me explain some more.

Ok..
Well, i'm a 18 year old student who's starting to study as a firstyear, again.
Reason? Alwas had problem with school and never really get into it.
Along with that, my life have been upside down most of my life, drugs, violence and all that "messy teenage shit".

The reasn i'm creating this topic is that i need to get out from those kinda' things and have something to do, something i can both use as a schoolwork and something to do to keep me away from everything.
Since my teachers i will have is pretty loose with anything they told me that i could figure something out that had with webdesign and entrepenour things to do, since that's my 2 majors.
So that's a little round up on everything but the main questions i would like to be answered, since my mind isn't working when it comes to these things is:

A) What could it be?
Yes, what kind of thing could i start with, since i play tibia and always have, i thought about something to do with that.

B) How could it be done?
Not how it should be done, but how could i start of to get an easy start and yet keep me quite motivated, even tho i know it's always hard in the start.

I know some people might think this is a lousy thing to post on this forum and a lousy thing to post at all since these things is usually figured out by ur own, but i'm clueless and i'll do anything to get out from problem and have something that keeps me motivated while at school and while at home, something i enjoy and that is some kind of small company or what to call it.

If you want to help me or got anything to say, do it.
If you wanna' flame, go on.
I'm doing this just to see if i can get any help.

Regards.
Alex.

If you're in to webdesign simply make websites. The wonderful part about these fields are if you don't sell them you can always show them off on a resume.

Is a good place to sell your templates.

I quit "gymnasiet/high school" last year and I was going to become a social worker.. Did I have the grades, no.. So I began with webdesign/webprogramming, which i do not regret!!

Now. There are a few things that you should think about. Do you want to work with webdesign or programming? I find programming very interesting, but it's also kinda hard, compared to the design "in my meaning". But if you start programming, who knows, you might be the new bot-creator if you stick to Tibia?

Buy a 500 Ek and play tibia 24/7 :D

No but seriously, if you enjoy sitting down and working on stuff, like playing around in Photoshop, designing websites or maybe even make movies you should be able to make something that got a connection to tibia. I think that would motivate you alot. Maybe you could code websites for the big scripters out there, or become a scripter yourself and sell them (If you do good you will probably make some money) Maybe start a graphic service? I dont know really.

If that's nothing for you then maybe start playing around in Sony Vegas and make Tibia movies (Like I do when Im bored, its really fun tbh)
On your freetime exercising is also good, just take a 30 min walk everyday and in the long run you'll be happier than before, trust me.

I enjoy playing Tibia with people / Rpging in vent / Singing like a retard in vent, so Tibia related stuff makes me more motivated in school. (Like the website I'm working on right now) At least that's me, maybe your diffrent. Or maybe get a Tibia interested girlfriend, I could hook you up with one ;)

And if you like progamming, maybe you should try to code something for Tibia that doesnt exist yet, like a ehh Anti push program? Maybe your own bot? I got no clue bro, Im not into programming!

I might have gone offtopic, sorry if so! Just trying to help, and good luck! :P
I'll always cover your back bro! Write to me if you need help anytime! :cool:

I agree with everyone else. Webdesign is great & easy. Something I blow my time on when I'm bored or just can't be bothered doing anything. As for tibia I think we're a bit the same in not being able to stick to one vocation/character a lot haha. I also blow time on just making random designs of programs in VB just for the hell of it ;)

Skatman, Syntax, jakobmiller, Joey, Messed Around
Thanks to everyone for the answers and the kind words.
Hopefully i'll figure something out, probably will have something to do with webdesign.
I really appreciate all this ideas even if some of them won't work out for me.

I would get a job, but since i live in sweden you wont get a job anywhere unless you have the grades and education for it.
I got a job this summer that might lead to some call-ins for jobs from time to time.
Anyway, thanks mate =)
