--- Quote from: Jeans on 29 Aug 2010, 05:46 ---I guess "college" isn't actually an entirely appropriate word - this place is like a middle stage between high school and uni, but it's a lot more like high school than uni in that the teachers follow you very closely, attendance is taken for every single class, and the rules here are actually incredibly strict about drinking.

Folkehøgskule?

I've heard two versions on how that life is. Number one is "oh my God it was the best year of my life ever", and the other was "nah, we got high for a year straight". I've heard the first one a bit more, but that's probably because I've mostly hung out with theatre people, and drama FHS is pretty much drama high school: you spend all year making plays and making out. Only this time, there's no maths and Norwegian and whatever to interrupt your theatre. So I guess that might be a bit biased. What are you studying there?

Yeah so Uni sucked. I'm glad other people enjoy it.

I don't think it's just the two of you. Once again, I am coming to the conclusion that I'm not made for this anymore. I was that person in highschool that everyone hated because I was brilliant. I consistently pulled assignments out of my ass the night before they were due and I consistently did exceptionally well. I was fantastic at being a last-minute person doing everything the night before it was due. I loved highschool, at least the academic side of things. I hated the social side of things; the girls were all too bitchy and the guys were just immature and I just generally hated most people there. I did have some really close friends but I certainly wasn't friends with heaps of people. I don't have anything to do with any of the people I went to highschool with except one and that one person is my exboyfriend and we're still good friends.

I went to uni straight after school and I didn't have anyone from my highschool in my classes. I changed degrees a semester in and have been doing classes part time since. I've been here for nearly three years and theoretically, I should be graduating next year and I am no where close to that.

I don't enjoy it anymore. I picked up classes from Communications this semester to see what it's like and I just don't enjoy the study side of any of it anymore. I've looked over the list of degrees and things I can study so many many times and the only thing I can think of to say about any of them is "Oh, that looks like it could be interesting... for someone that actually cares."

I'm starting to think that perhaps I should just finish this semester, defer and go back to full time work. I have a good job, it pays stupidly well and it would allow me to travel and eventually save up and move the hell out of this city. I mean, I could always go back to study if it's something I want to do later? People survive without needing to go to uni, people live happy and satisfied lives without going to uni. I don't NEED to go... right?
