If you think school is hard then Im sorry. I been working full time for half a year since I graduated and It's 10 times harder and more stressful than anything I ever did in school.
>>24820806
cut the pot, replace it with blueberries.
double your caffeine intake.
remember to keep smoking, nicotine improves memorization
You're taking way too many courses at once if your workload is that unbalanced.
You should have been working on these projects way before the week they're due, especially if they're all due at once.
You need to learn to schedule your efforts so you can work consistently and have time off.
What are you proving?
>>24821037
oh good, so I won't be missing anything by killing myself
Have fun with the world for me
>>24820806
I wish I was productive and smart like you F A M.
>got accepted into Emery University
>wanted to take english
>have to take a bunch of horse shit unrelated to english
yea no. Fuck college.
>4.5 hours of classes today, and today's my easy day
Is this what American schools are actually like? I have two 1-hour classes a week
>tfw my oneitis is stressing the fuck out over college while I'm enjoying my vacation days
>>24820806
>4 hours of class
Really? Just 4 hours a day?
>>24821037
school is just a fuckton of work and it's way less rewarding than work because you're actually paying tons of money to put in the time and do the work instead of the other way around.
>>24822793
Again, come to the UK. If you apply for English then English is all you do-- none of that distribution bullshit
>>24822819
What are you only taking one class? That doesn't even seem normal for any college.
>enrolled in september this year
>one class is starting tomorrow
>lecturer sent an email that we have to form groups for a project by tomorrow
>mfw I haven't talked to anyone since september
should I just end it now
>>24823113
In the UK (see >>24823033) you only have one subject and that is all you do in your time there. You focus on different areas within the subject, but it will usually be something like
>Monday: Elizabethan lit
>Thursday: Lit 1350-1550
(replace that with comparable maths, law, history, etc topics)
>three history papers due in the next week
Why did I have to choose this shit fucking major. I wish I was good at math so I wouldn't have to write all this bullshit
>>24823240
That's cool. I really hate having to waste time in classes I don't need for my major
Yesterday I took a bunch of adderall and stayed up organizing my entire life again.
- Life goals, stages of career, current goals
- Daily schedule including morning/bed routine, productive things to do when bored, things I need to schedule in my daily planner
- Updated my happy memory journal
- Updated my mindfulness/motivational/affirmations list, along with list of habits I need to adapt into my lifestyle
- Drew out a flowchart reflecting my life goals and daily schedule tasks. Including the needed supplies to carry through these tasks, which I also have listed in a large document for when I go grocery shopping etc.
- Updated my lists of favorite tv/movies, and music artists
- Deleted all of my shitty memes and crap in my pictures folder
- Updated my daily planner for this week
Didn't get any schoolwork done though. Fucking adderall.
>>24823268
At least with papers I could write two less pages and still get a good grade.
Most math deal with exams, technical stuff you have to remember. There's no guessing, You'll have to study that 40 page chapter and do the practice problems over and over and...
LOL I haven't had to write "papers" since fucking high school, you guys must be non-stem majors. You can just bullshit a paper, try taking one of my tests. 5 questions, no multiple choice. You have to write out the answers. Basically you either know it 100% or you fail.
Just submitted my last project of the term. Was up to 2am last night and then back on the grind at 9am this morning. 24 hours spent on this piece of shit that just barely compiles. I swear itd held together by glue and popsicle sticks.
Now time to prep for finals. I got 36hours to preoare for the first and harder one. Wish me luck bruhs
>>24824161
>tfw test is 5 questions
>tfw you don't know (a)
>tfw (b) is literally "what is the yadayada about (a), you may use your work from (a)"
>tfw (c) (d) (e) are chained in the same fashion
TOP KEK
>>24824161
I fucking miss papers. Now all I get are these bullshit unbalanced exams where the last two pages are 40% of the test.
The only papers I don't like doing are English papers, they're as dull as dishwater. Sometimes you have go by a certain "script" teachers give you. If you don't read much books you're gonna have a hard time.
How/where do you guys get your adderall?
>>24822793
They want you to be well-rounded and well educated Mr. Anon.
>Mildly attractive lady starts talking to me
>Will literally go up to my door and want to talk
>Seems strangely interested in me
>No one ever has ever shown an interest in me unless they're planning on harassing me with pranks
>So of course I'm super wary of the roasty
>In my room one day
>Overhear some of the guys on my floor talking to her (walls are paper thin, you can literally hear people talking to each other a floor above and below you)
>They say something along the lines of "why are you talking to that retard"
>She stops wanting to talk to me
Each and every day I lose more and more sympathy for people when they keep acting like cretins with no sense of decency or responsibility.
>should be studying for finals
>surfing 4chins instead

at college, i'm always thinking about how much the work sucks and how much money I'm dropping on tuition/gas/parking/food.
at work, I'll often start to think about how much the work sucks, then I remember I'm getting money and remember what I'll be able to do with it.
also, unless you work salary, you don't have to give a fuck about work at home. i mentally check out as soon as I clock out. college, especially with lots of classes doing things with blackboard/pearson/whatever, puts most of the stress on your free-time.
>tfw you wish you were a student still
>>24825304
Could not agree more. Once I clock out at work I do not give a FUCK about anything. But when I was at school once the class was over the school work was just beginning. Always had shit to worry about. No matter how shit a job is, 5pm is 5pm.
Dont fucking procrastinate then.
>>24825376
>But when I was at school once the class was over the school work was just beginning.
oh yeah. it was dope getting home at 6 PM after an hour commute to know I had a couple more hours of stuff to do by midnight
