Screw you.
I went to a post-graduate study information evening today and I’m…disappointed. Putting aside the whole minimum of B+ average in the appropriate course requirement, it’s the way I have to re-arrange my life around it. I’ll have to quit work, I’ll have to spend up to 12 ~ 13 hours a day, six days a week at the campus just to maintain my studies.
When asked how they are bringing in some money into their pockets, they said that none of them worked. If you want to, it’s best if they helped out with lab demonstrating to the under-graduates and maybe the tutorials. But that’s it, because otherwise, it’s too time consuming.
At this point in time, I’m not willing to let go of this current job. I’ve been working since I was 16 and this is the first decent place that I’m at. After working for a boss who thinks me working until 7:00pm daily is me being “unenthusiastic” and another boss who thinks that he can bully me, I am NOT going to be a fool and quit this first decent job I’ve even been at.
But I shouldn’t get my panties in a twist at the moment as I’ve still got two years to go and my grades are nowhere near a B+ average, let’s be honest here. Let’s be realistic.
The post-graduate students who came to talk today said that the study can be fun sometimes, and I have no doubt it will be fun as I enjoy my labs (sometimes). But at this point in time, the cons far outweigh the pros and I don’t think it’s worth it for me, personally.
Moving on…had another soccer game today. My team won…yay, we are celebrating. But why am I not in this joyous mood? I feel like a fake for reasons that is just too convoluted in my head to express here. I’m way too tired, way too irritated, way too crassed off…just…can’t be bothered.
