Well, thats it.....Christmas break for me is as good as
finished. I've been off since the 18th December, and I go
back to work tomorrow.

Why does this suck so much? :(

I'm working like a bitch on more coursework. A law essay,
Some OpenGL programming and a Computer facility acceptable
use policy, not to mention some managerial "project
planning" nonsense. Gotta get it all done by next weekend. I
think I overdid the "holiday days" a bit over xmas :/

I agree, working a normal job is actually a piece of piss
compared to a degree if you study a "proper" subject and
work hard at it.

having a job is less strress on yourr brrain because you
know what you arre doing, it's nothing new, but most jobs
arre utterr shit and make you want to die, just being therre
with the otherr cunts whose stupid lives you have to hearr
about is enough to drrive you mad. also i've neverr made a
prroperr frriend thrrough worrk.

Yes- having the time when you're not in work as your own is
great too. When you're in university, you can do a 10 hour
day and still feel you ought to be doing more work. There's
also the fact that when you're a student you're working for
yourself- as result you tend to work harder. In an office
you know that so long as you do enough work to stay out of
trouble, there's little point in doing a full days work (I
reckon most people in office jobs spend no more than about
4-6 hours doing proper "productive" work. A lot of the time
they're talking, just sitting and staring at the screen,
surfing the net, playing solitare, etc.)

I go to school on thursday... but then I have friday off,
and another weekend... so I guess it's really a week from
tomorrow that I start... I always look forward to getting
back to school for some reason... but that only lasts a day
or so...

going back to school/uni/etc. after holidays is always a
pain in the ass of the soul.... =(

and having to work during the holidays too

uni starts again tomorrow and one week after it's the exams
- of course, i haven't worked enough, and most of you know
that feeling - the stress induced by the exams coming that
prevents you from working... you just do nothing and stress
even more because you're not working but you can't work
because you're too stressed... not to mention the sad
mood...

in summer break i always start worrying even in august
because it's already halfway!!!!

and i don't know how i will survive when i'm a grown-up,
with only 5 weeks of holidays per year °_° sounds crazy to
me... and definitely not crazy in the good way!!!

back to school today. It was the coldest/snowiest day here
in years.

We never get snow, but it was 25 degrees. The norm is like
45-50.

FUck this shit, I walked to snow cuz the busses weren't
running, my face is still frozen.
