Anyone else sucking in college?

[Bluhman]

I dunno. If I have to do stupid **** for people I hate, I'd much rather have a tangible reward. Feeling good and getting a diploma is nice, but wouldn't having a new TV or your own place be better?

Man, minimum wage in Texas must be high.

That's all I was thinking.

[Archem]

Missing the point.

[drenrin2120]

well, personally, I don't mind the idea of going to college for a few years so I can get a good job. Plus, a part of me does enjoy learning new things.

I know university and college is really important, but don't you guys at least get the feeling that sometimes you want to get up and do something different? Take a couple years off school and do something cool?
I guess I don't wish I didn't go to university but I do sometimes feel really antsy with all the essays and everything.

(If you're wondering why I'm posting so much today, it's because I've been digging away at an essay and I get easily distracted on the computer)

I get where you're coming from. If my band hadn't of broken up and my bassist and saxophonists hadn't been such twats and we didn't suck loads of balls on our spare time instead of getting better, it'd be hard to choose between college and playing shows all over. I'm kind of serious about that too, I'd love to try other things, being in a small band and touring locally is a major one.

And work in physics and survive an extra dimensional alien attack.

... ... ... Now you have me intrigued...

Minimum wage in California is 8 flat, which seems cool until a one bedroom apartment is 900 at low. Barring of course gov't subsidied and such, but to be honest living in the ghetto isn't worth it.

Kinda depends. I picked that route and I ended up typing this from Afghanistan.

BTW Wazzup Charas.

Lol. To each his own. I'm actually in the Air Force.

This'll sound a little ironic but that's somewhat what my job is. I'm a Munitions Specialist (Ammo). I assemble the weapons we use to do that.

I'm three fourth's done with my Sophomore year at a State University. Grades aren't perfect, but they're fine.

Social life though: WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!, if you're not having a blast, you're most certainly doing something wrong. Go make friends.

Personally, I never let anything get in the way of school.  I work 12 hours a week at 7.95 an hour doing **** work.  After taxes that's $80.  However, I do a lot better in school when I'm not having a psychotic episode, which happens when I build up too much stress over time.  (Not fun.)  If you want a life after this, finish school, regardless of anything else.

[Bluhman]

I'll let this speak for itself.

[Phayre]

As far as work goes. . . . I'm pretty much high honors.
Unfortunately, college professors are unforgiving of absences, even when caused by actual for srs major illness, and I've missed about half this semester.
It is not a good way to go. Don't get sick in college, gaiz.
