#13. Having no money, so getting a job to pay for student fees, but then not having time to work

Most people, go to uni to learn and get good grades mainly so they can (hopefully) get a high paying job at some point in the future *DREAM*

Uni fees are a lot, and to pay for uni, most students get part time jobs.
The part time job is crappy, the pay is little, so you do more hours for more money to pay for uni fees.

Then because you are working more hours, you have no time to do any assignments and learn, even though that's the point of uni because you initially went their to learn.

Finally, you begin getting bad marks so you either have to stop having a job or get kicked out.

So, you either:
 a) have money but uni doesn't want you 
 b) do all the uni work but can't pay the fees 
And then you get kicked out 

Or you stop being a whingey twazzak and get on with it... which is what I should probably do...

#12. Going to the library silent zone to work but people guffawing non stop about Apple products

I have a lot of work to do and because I can't work at the flat (NOISE), I went to the library
I went to the first floor aka:
"The silent study zone"

A big huge red poster isn't hard to miss, but apparently it's not enough to get people to shut up.

What amazes me the most, aside from how these people got into uni since they clearly can't read, is that they chose to have this iPhone discussion in the library. I mean if you want to talk about random stuff why come here? 

At the very least go to the "social study" bit of the library to talk.

Trying to concentrate is impossible with two girls giggling their heads off at what some guy is saying about Siri, and frankly, I don't care if she's going to take over the world. Balzac is far more important to me right now.

#11. Not being able to do what you want because of deadlines

I love Panic! at the Disco more than life in itself and I was a major whiny-emo-rebel-type-humanoid as a teen :S

Yet, I have NEVER been to a concert...

I wanted to go to their one (tomorrow) and let my teenage emo dreams come true!! The tickets were not that expensive and it's being held close-by!!!

But no, I am slave to assignments, slave to books and slave to the tickory-tock of every clock
