Default School sucks!

All I have to say is that I'm too old to be going back to school I'm working full time and taking night classes at Grant MacEwan College every Tues. and Thurs. night. I'm taking Intro. to Sociology. I have to say my school work is seriously cutting into my canreef time Sorry, just thought I'd wine a little

I'm the opposite. I cant stand working, I just keep going back to school praying that if I get enough education I'll one day be able to get a job that I dont hate.

What we all need is to get paid for playing in our fish tanks...

Default Good/ Bad

School for me is a love hate relationship, I love it because after another 6 years I will be Dr. Morgan. I hate it because 5 classes, 2 jobs, homework, friends, various animals and a fish tank make you a little crazy at times. Takes up so much time though, K-12 is 13 years and then your BA is another 4, PHD another 4 on top of there. Geez I'm not even 20 yet, what the heck am I going to do with the rest of my life?

Always good to learn something new. I have three trades under my belt and who knows
what the future holds.
