    Damn, that sounds hectic as shit. Were all your classes in person too? That adds A LOT of time to your days too!

    Jumping back in. I transferred some credits over, but the majority didn’t, so it kind of feels like a waste but since the classes at this school are much cheaper than what I was paying I don’t have much issue with the cost in that regard. But, before was one class at a time, not balancing 5 and working 60 hours a week.

    I tell myself it would be worth it but I just don’t know how true that is. Yeah, it would make it easier to find a different job if this one starts to suck, but otherwise I don’t feel like I’d really “use” my education. I’m not trying to become Marketing Director for my company or anything, I’m content where I’m at (for now, could change next week) so part of me always says, “so.... what’s the point again?”

    Lmao I love this thread
    Also @Dog with a Blog i have no idea how you did full time school AND work. I have 4 classes (2 in persons, 2 online) and working 4 days a week (aka 32 hours) and I’m like....yeah nah I can’t do this.
    I called out today and I’m basically just waiting fot them to fire me and idec. Idk how I could ever do my schoolwork while working 32 hours a week and keeping my sanity.

    if i drop a class (or five) i only owe 10% of tuition. kinda wish they said i'd owe 100% because then i'd just stick with it, but knowing it's 10% is reallllllll tempting to come back to this when my debts are paid off (hahahahaha yeah right i'd probably never come back)

    It was really hard, don’t get me wrong, but then I’d think about how there are parents who work full time, go to school, and then have to go home and take care of their kids and I’m like nahhh I got this easy. Well, maybe not easy but there is a lot less room for me to complain

    Idk having a job is pretty sweet. Had a recurrent nightmare where I signed up for a class and never went, tried to kick it into high gear in November, but it did not work.

    If schools rewarded me with cash in exchange for A’s I’d do so well. That’s like my only motivator lol

    I hate that feeling after the end of a long day homework that even a calculator looks confusing to my melted brain.

    Everyone in my bio 101 class hated me cause I would watch Netflix and set my fantasy football lineups every lecture and still ace every test. In my defense I was only in that class because my math score was too low for anatomy which makes zero sense.

    I have a class at 11:30 and one at 5:30. Normally this would be fine, but since I am technically working during this time period, I'm stuck sitting around doing nothing between classes. So fucking bored.
