I don't study that because of the second question. Actually, there is lots of stuff I decided not to study because of that, althoug I'm interested. But I still like to think I study math for the sake of studying math.
I have 29 hours a week, but nine of them are practice and often end an hour earlier. And two of them I had to choose from arts, social sciences, economy, and stuff. I chose music theory, which is quite relaxing. And physics is too easy atm, so we throw paper planes around and build paper ships that hover above some kind of long and narrow fan that's installed in front of the desks.

Actually, studying Philosophy is really good for getting jobs. If you've graduated with a degree in philosophy employers know that you've been taught to think and analyze properly, and usually that you're up to the challenge.
I hate having arguments (debates?) with people who take philosophy, cause they're so damned good at it usually.

All these different ways of measuring hours are confusing! This semester I am taking 13 hours (breaks down to four real classes and one 1-hour class for fun) which is considered on the lighter end. You have to have 12 hours minimum to be considered a full-time student, and 15-16 is a normal semester. I have done 17-18 before, but it was pretty rough trying to juggle all those classes and labs, and keep my job too.
Someone said they had 29 or something- is that the way the university measures it, or your calculation of actual hours spent doing work? That number just seems absurdly high to me!

It's supposed to be 45min-lessons, but they're rebels.

I think mine is a little bit higher than normal cause I take 5 classes (most people do 4 or 5) and one is a 2.5 hour drawing class.
