If you find turning wrenches more enjoyable and therapudic then going out and frying your brain then you are wise beyond your years. when I was your age ( a long time ago in a galaxy far far away ) I too found turning wrenches as well as playing sports a far more productive way to spend my time. I watched way too many classmates take a fast trip to a early grave ( drugs , alcohol and way to fast cars = a fatal combination ) keep your positive ways and you will go far in life.

That’s a good attitude to have and as said above, you are mature beyond your years.

I was all over the place when i was younger, but then i got married when i was 20 and it calmed me down.

Now working on vehicles for me is fun, enjoyable and i love it. There is some bad days at the shop but that’s how it goes for any profession.

I quit drinking several years ago and don’t miss it at all as I enjoy being sober and in full control of my facilities. Wish I did it sooner.

Good for you. Keep that a goal in your life. When I was young I did way to much partying. It is a dead end street with nothing but much more frustrating problems. I have not consumed alcohol for 22 years now, and do not miss it.

Good for you. That “should be” in your sentence comes from lots of movies and advertising. The drinking and party lifestyle that’s sold to young people is mostly a lie and you don’t have to find that out the hard way. I like having a beer once in a while, but I really like working out a car repair problem. It’s a very rewarding thing to build/fix something and you’ll have a lot to show for that approach to life.

I’m the same way, If i feel Mad about something i just go outside to my little shop and find something to work on.
Thats why i ALWAYS have a project car ( just picked up a ’80 vw rabbit diesel project) cause even if it’s just doing something little to it for an hour it makes the rest of my day much better.
