I am too old.

10 years since finishing Uni I'm STILL hugely relieved whenever I'm sat in the house watching telly or playing on the X-Box that I don't have the feeling of guilt about the poor effort that's going into my homework.

 

Being a student is the worst job in the world.

To be writing a dissertation.

 

Sorry just moaning cos I am coming to the end of my freeloading sorry hardworking student days. I will never cope with a proper job after this. If I get one like.

 

Oh and I have come to the conclusion only Geordies pronounce Santa correctly.

 

 

Work shy wanker. If you ever make it as a teacher I hope one of your future students sticks a sharp pencil in your neck.

True 'dat, man. When I was teaching at the junior college, I had students who were my parents age come through my program. It's never too late to radically change how much money you make.

 

(That being said, I need to take my own advice and go back to school)

I think you're never too old to learn something new or study to change your career path.

I feel sorry for folk who are stuck in a rut with their lives and want more out of it but never make the effort to change their status quo. That said tho I do understand it can be harder for some than other for financial reasons or child care issues, but I think if you really want to do it you will always find a way, Most of the time I think people are too lazy to study at night classes or work evenings/nights to supplement their income.

Dedication always pays off in the end and when you look at how long it takes to achieve the qualification and how long you'rr reap the benefits its well worth the risk.

The worst that can happen is you fail and go back to the way things were, you've still lost nothing but you know you've tried, Its better than a lot of 'what if's'.

Good luck to you.

 

Although I do love the fact that I can go home at the end of the day and leave it all behind me, for how long is another thing cos I'm looking at post grad courses to advance my career.

 

Aristotle said " the root to education is bitter, but the fruit from it is sweet" (or something like that! :( )
