I feel like all my friends are having adventures abroad or doing cool, fun internships, and I'm stuck at home in a horrific minimum wage job. It makes me afraid for my future.

I felt like this last year, so I changed it this year!
well *i* feel sympathy--i've felt like that before, and there's a multitude of reasons why some people have to move back home. i have been stuck in that situation, and unfortunately i did not take advantage of it. take it from someone who has been there (and been just as frustrated and hopeless!) please please make the most of it! there's so much more you can do than you think--i mean, get to know your family, esp you parents, in a different way--you're older now, you've lived on your own. now you can get to know your rents as people, instead of just depending on them. go see movies, read books--when you come back to school you WILL be more cultured if you go out and do things.
also, on the other side--yea, the things your friends are doing are fun and will make for good stories--but the grass isn't greener on the other side. if anything, start planning for next summer!

stop complaining....i feel no sympathy, you've obviously not been proactive. get out and find something you like to do.
