2.2 hit the nail directly on the head. Work first, play later. I too fucked up majorly when I first started college. I was one of those people that breezed through high school with straight A's. Then I partied and fucked around and went through a few majors, and ultimately left college for awhile. When I finally got my ass in gear, ditched the community college and got into a major university, I strove hard to excel and do the best I could and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a BA and then went on to graduate school. I used to blame it on not knowing what I wanted to do. I guess that's partially true but it took me until I was 25 to graduate with a BA.

At least you know what you want to do... engineering. Work then play. Don't be afraid to ask for help either. GL
