Fun Stuff > CHATTER
University/College
Nodaisho:
Ugh. I have two computer science tests this week, and I think the flu finally caught up to me. I actually hope it lasts long enough to keep me from my test on Tuesday, because I need to study for that one some, and if I get better Tuesday morning, that doesn't give me any time to study. At least I'm sure the teacher will let me make up the tests, since she has been out with various things twice this semester already, and she knows how bad an idea it is to test while you aren't completely recovered.
Game design is actually one of the worst computer fields from what I have heard. Lower pay than other fields, unpaid overtime near deadlines and it probably doesn't help that there are two dozen people just lining up at the door for your job if you aren't happy with it.
Dimmukane:
stop shitting on our dreams
Nodaisho:
The more of you I discourage, the less compete with me.
Barmymoo:
Man I have so much reading to do for my supervision in two and a half hours but I cannot be bothered plus I have a ton of washing to hang up because I maybe kinda spilt orange juice all over my bed sorta so all the bedding is in the wash plus all my clothes cause hell I'm not paying £1.40 to wash twice in one week do you think I'm made of money?
ETA: I am going to have to wash twice anyway because half of the stuff didn't come clean anyway. GODDAMIT I DO NOT HAVE ANY MORE TWENTY PENCE PIECES. I've already been to the porters' lodge to get change once today, I don't want to go again!
Today I hate university.

Good call.
Don't do Comp Sci guys. It's a shit load of work, you won't learn anything useful at all, you'll become a giant stress ball, you won't ever get to socialize with anyone who's just a bit normal, you'll spend lectures on the QC forums having given up on understanding how to calculate canonical coordinates of each pixel in an image without using openGL, you'll hobble home at five in the morning after spending hours in the computing labs trying to implement a better algorithm than quicksort, all this along with the job you're doing to support all the fast food you've been eating because cooking takes up too much time which has as a result made you unbelievably fat, and eventually just turn to alcohol to solve all of your lives problems, give up on having a normal career because face it you're going to be a code monkey, get drunk while staring at a computer screen while trying to prove the balmer's peak, and eventually find yourself at the top of your eight story computing lab contemplating live's intricate moments.
Unless you get a kick out of all of that of course.
