#20 Not having enough time to do anything

Yeah it's been like AGES since I actually updated this, because I just have no time.

If I'm not sitting in the library frazzling my brain over some syntax issue, I'm sitting in a lecture getting bored to death. (And I have a job, balancing the three is taking it's toll).

I haven't seen people I saw like every day, in months. I have turn down every invitation to go out because I need to get my work done. I haven't even been to the gym in like 4 weeks. 

Not only am I a fat blob, I'm a fat blob with no life or friends.

IT SUCKS! 

But, on the bright side, I have few exams because all of them tend to be during this semester. At the moment I have none :)

Seriously, whoever claims "uni is the best time of your life" is wearing some serious graduation goggles. It's basically just a place where people judge by what you wear, who you hang out with, and what grades you get. (It's worse if you get good grades and don't hang out with people).

And I never thought I'd hate reading, but I do now!

#19. Having friends from different departments who finish their exams two weeks after you, meaning you have nothing to do

Now, I'm not complaining, I'm so glad that I'm free. No more exams, no coursework, just chilling

But, there's nothing to do...

Everyone I'm friends with has exams, or they've gone home. So, I literally do nothing every day. 

I'm so bored it's ridiculous... maybe the uni should make all our exams end around the same time, rather than weeks apart...

Ah! I'm being annoying, this is minor...but still, in this weather, sitting around, indoors, alone, is HORRIBLE!

#18. Staff not realising you care about your degree, and forgetting you are around, resulting in you being locked inside

Not everyone is a nerd, but some people do actually make the effort to go into uni and study.

A friend of mine was sitting in the Arts building doing an essay, and most art students go there because the library is so jam packed with other students. She was there until the late evening, like 8 o'clock.

Buildings shut around 8 and the staff kick everyone out. But it's exam time, so they obviously didn't need to check if people were about, since, you know, no one would be studying in there...

So, they locked up while she was still inside...

And they then got angry when they needed to let her out.

#17. Trying to find a computer in the library to print work out, but not being able to because of ghost users

I normally take my laptop to the library when I need to study, but for essays and assignments, our department requires us to have print outs to submit.

I don't have a printer but the library does, so I go the computer bit. And about half of the computers aren't being used,

Or so I think...

The chair's empty, there's no work anywhere, but the computer has been logged into.
I battle with myself as to whether or not it's acceptable to restart the computer so I can print something out

Instead I just hang around like a vulture waiting for someone to leave and they know what I'm too making me considerably more pathetic...

Because I could just walk to another computer room, but it's normally the same deal

#16. Asking every lecturer repeatedly to make deadlines on different days only to be ignored, and then reminded they are due on the same day

Doing assignments is always boring. Sometimes it can be fun like when it's about syntax *nerd*... but when you have like four in for the same week it get's hectic.

Then you get e-mails about how it's almost the deadline. 

From every lecturer.

Because you know, everyone tends to forget about things that are destroying your will to live.

Everyone sent requests to have the deadlines further apart, so, now they are all due on the exact same day.

At the exact same time...

#15 Trying to get on with work at the library but someone's taken their shoes off so you can't see let alone breathe

I'm trying to do work in the library right now, because I'm a good little student...

Some person has most obviously taken their shoes off because well, it is kind of warm in here. And, unfortunately for them, and for everyone else in here, it actually reeks. I can barely breathe and I'm extremely sensitive to smells, hazelnuts and bleach gives me headaches, so my eyes are watering...

I don't really want to go and say to this person, 'put your shoes back on' so I hope they get told soon by a friend or loved one that they need some sort of foot spray or something.

Seriously. This is going to drive me out of here, it's that bad.

AND the windows don't open on this floor...

#14. Being so distracted by international affairs you can't work

I have an assignment due on Friday, and I haven't started it because of a small viral video:

Kony 2012

So, I decided to do a bit of research into this, rather than do my work because I'm a freak. And I then went on to create a blog about it here.

I often wonder what's the point, and is it important in the end...

What is worth more: a degree 

or humanity?
