Ashley Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 When life just pulls you in opposite directions and you don't know what the hell to do. While I'm starting a postgrad in a few weeks and looking forward to it and I know its going to be ace/living in London will be ace part of me feels like saying "fuck it, I'm sick of having no money!" and using what I've saved up to go have more life experiences (read: travel) and worry about the future down the line. I'm too sensible and feel both old and young at 23. I'm constantly arguing with myself "I should start my 'life'" against "you're still young!" Plus earlier my friend said she couldn't wait until I move down which made me feel guilty (feeling is mutual obviously but you know?) Anyway. Weight in on shit or give us some of yours. What's got you lying naked on the floor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Kinda torn whether to go downstairs and get some cornflakes, I'm real hungry but I don't think the throat will enjoy it too much. I'm being serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellmeister Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 What's keeping me naked on my floor? My girlfriend. I joke, obviously. I have my final year at uni and feel a bit overwhelmed by everything. Regular feeling of not being capable/having too much to do/ not enjoying uni as much by socialising all the time unlike seemingly every other student there. Eurgh. I kind of think of doing something else, but I've worked hard so far and a job is waiting for me as long as I get a 2:1 so dammit I don't really have a choice.

nightwolf Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I have my final year at uni and feel a bit overwhelmed by everything.

I kind of think of doing something else, but I've worked hard so far and a job is waiting for me as long as I get a 2:1 so dammit I don't really have a choice. This. I love that I'm finally reaching the end of my education and finally know for sure what I want to do with my life. But I'm find now that I am more worried than ever. Next year I have to find a job and a life, there is no moving back home like quite a few people I know will/have done, I won't go into details but for me personally it's just not a good idea and regardless I know if I do I'll settle for a crappy job I don't like just for the money and completely waste all my time. So apart from trying to get a 2:1 or above, I'm trying to save money, get a full time job for May 2011 and still remain calm enough to do a final year project. I'm finding that it's not possible to save and I'm continuously shortening my savings each day, pretty much everything is banking on me getting a part time job next week. Phew. FML.

The fish Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 (edited) After years of being a massive (almost literally) geek, I'm suddenly up to my neck in girls. I'm leaving the country in as little as five weeks, and they all know that, I almost dare to think I could get away with being a massive dick and seeing as many as possible at once. I sound like such an ass for complaining about such a thing, but I fear my head may explode (no, not the kind you want to happen, ReZ). As for the University thing, I realised I don't like my subject, so I'm taking a year out to decide what to in. In this year, I'm doing TESOL, the training for which starts Monday. I probably won't go back to Civil Engineering, and will instead stick with the teaching for the year or maybe two, and then do a History & Philosophy (i.e. a subject I'm interested in) degree somewhere, partly to allow me to teach in more places. The big question for now is where do I start teaching? Many countries won't let you get a work visa without a degree, so at the moment my two big targets are the Eastern EU and Indonesia.

Daft Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I misread the thread title as 'Tron'. That gets me lying naked on the floor. Quite often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
