Maybe you couldve better prepared yourself for your finals by not playing poker or drinking, and instead studying and sleeping? I honestly would rather be a rounder making less money doing something I love then work in an office cubicle making more money doing something I hate. Or you could work in your cubicle doing something you love, like surf the internet all day and post in BBS. And get promotions and raises up the ass for all your hard work, like me!

I just put on This I Love off of the new Chinese Democracy album. Definitely one of my top 10 favorite songs of all time. I am a little more happy. SO MANY PEOPLE love that song. I think it's good but not great. I really do love the CD though. Better is a great song, Street of Dreams (formerly "The Blues") is great, This I Love is great, Catcher in the Rye is great. Ironic that Chinese Democracy is the worst song on the album IMO. This I Love, Madagascar, IRS, Better, If the World in that order is my list.

Woke up at Georgetown, took a cab ride with a really cool cab driver, back in my room. About to grab some breakfast and go to the library. Not a bad day. What kid from home is addicted to full tilt?Myers

Honestly, you guys are worrying to much, in this day and age, it's more about experience than your studies.
You guys need to relax about school and stop being so damn nervous about it.
Yes, I'm 22, and still a Sophmore in college credits wise, but I'm getting my education done. I also have a career without even having a degree, which is something pretty good. At 22 years of age, I have as much experience if not more than someone in their late 20's early 30's. I've been in this field in some way or another since I was 16.
My experience got me this current job, not my degree obviously since I don't have one. Yes, of course, having a degree is ridiculous important and if I'm to advance to an even better position I will need one, but right now I'm making money, getting experience, and having school on the part-time side.
It's the best decision I probably ever made.

You have to understand that I have a psychologically deranged mother though who has disowned me the last two years of my life because I didn't go to an Ivy.

I took alot of shit from my parents to, but I came to realize this is about me, not about them. They obviously want the best for us, so in their own ways telling us we should have done this or gone here or what not is there way of saying "I just want you to do your best." Believe me, just do what you want to do. In the end if you're not happy what the hell is the point anyways?

Woke up exhausted, went to work, got pissed off at the girl I work with who wasn't working but saw that I was working alone with a big line and didn't help out. It was Kayla. WTF. Now I'm pissed at my sister because she's twenty minutes late and I have to cover for her. Have to do a HW assignment and then write a paper and do a peer review for tomorrow, so I'm in a shit mood. I want it to be tomorrow so badly. Where do you work? At a cafe on campus.

Its rare you can do both. At the end of the ay, I just want to be happy though. I don't mind if I don't have the coolest car, o the coolest house.
