feeling like a failure

I'm a traditional senior in college graduating this May. For whatever reason I had the horrible idea of taking anatomy this semester, and I'm not doing good in it at all. I can't retake it at my current university post-grad because of my job schedule, so I've applied to a community college to potentially take it there. I just can't help but feel embarrassed because my sGPA is already low at a 3.3 and I feel like as a senior, I should have better study habits. I can't seem to stay afloat in anatomy. I feel like I'm drowning. Feeling overall defeated..

i feel like i've wasted time

Hi, I'm 21 and a senior graduating university in about 3 weeks. However, I can't stop fighting the feeling that I've wasted my 4 years at university. Growing up my parents have been pretty strict, and all my choices in life have been careful to not upset them. Especially my mom because for whatever reason I dwell on her opinions. Her words can be quite harsh if I fall out of line.

The reason why I feel like this is because whenever I talk to my friends who are the same age as me or even younger, they always have such crazy experiences and stories. Like getting drunk at 4 AM, relationship experiences, or just straight up having fun. I've never experienced that because of fear. The first time I had a drink was at 20 and never been in any sort of romantic relationship. I haven't had side quests or interesting stories in my life :(

Just wondering if anybody has been through a similar experience bc it feels like I'm the only one. I don't want to waste my 20s moving forward since I turn 22 this year.
