Now,I am still a student.However, not a college student but a graduate student.Most of my time was spent in school.I had ever found my future though these years learning,but until now I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.I am confused. Looking backward,my school life was simple.Except studying books,I do nothing.Do not like most students,I haven't gone dating,I only went for two girls .And now the situation is still as the past.I often doubt whether I should continue my studies.The school could not figure my future out.At the same time,I could not find what I love to do and what I should do.I still do not know.I am confused,I can not see what is my future. Who can give me some your sincerely advices?What I should do?How to choose the future of my life,I am old enough to consider this important problem.

I think it is a case of pondering on what it is that you are passionate about and what excites you. In my case I knew I loved writing and animals from a young age but never made the effort to pursue either path until I got a lot older which involved going back to study. My advice is to keep studying and don’t force yourself to discover your path; take your time and you will soon know...

Do what you want to do. What do you like doing? What do you want to do with your life? You have discover yourself, find out who you are. What do you want for you?

I am right in the same boat as you, minus being a graduate student. My whole life has been nothing but studying and more studying on top of guess what, more studying. You can only study so long before your brains leak from your ears and your head is screaming out for a break. I honestly can't say school is for everyone. I know people who have degrees, degrees they worked hard for and yet they don't use it. I understand you have no idea what you love or what you want to do but you probably need to experiment a little. Get random odd ended jobs to test your likes and dislikes. For all you know you might be going into the wrong field for a degree. Another thing you need to do is TAKE A BREAK! Get away from your studies and surround yourself with people! Isolation from human contact is not always good. Humans are social beings, we need human contact of other human beings. You don't need to get wasted or anything, just try to have a good time with some friends and/or family.
