    For the first time in my life I have the freedom and ability to go after the job position that I REALLY prefer, but can't get past the fact that I would have to give up a lucrative position, work at minimum wage, study for another 5-7 years, and rack up another 100K in student loans.

    I'm an idiot. I KNEW I would eat that whole monster slice of carrot cake with cream cheese frosting but I kept telling myself I would cut it to the three layers and have a small pice for the next couple days. Grrrr.....

    I need to complain about @Caporegiem

    I have nothing in particular to complain about at the moment. I just feel like I need to complain about him. Don't you agree, @caco_ethes?

    He’s the worst

    Why can't you be independently rich, and I can be dependently rich with you as my sugar mama?

    It is too hot.
    It is too humid.
    My trousers fused to my behind and every time I get up I need to peel them off.
    I am seriously thinking about shaving my head.

    I hate this.

    For the life of me I can't drive a stick . I just freak out .

    I can tell you how to start, you just need to touch it.

    But yeah, sometimes manual is better.


    Manual Automatic is so much better there is no thinking . You just go ! :D
    No need to remember what gear to have it on . No rolling back on a hill . :anguished:

    I went to college/university 4 times, so I understand where you’re coming from in regards to student debt. And I am paying student debt out my *kitten* BUT I’m a lot happier now, doing what I should be doing and I’ll be even happier once my school debt is paid off. You only get one life, and yeah the 5 years of school is a good chunk but it’s small in the bigger picture of how many working years you have left. Do something where you’ll be happy to wake up and show up.

    I am in total agreement with Meg here.

    But for the life of me, I cannot understand why education costs SO MUCH in the States, Canada and the UK. It is difficult to absorb all the knowledge and perform as you should when you have to work two jobs to make it happen.

    Come to Europe. There's free education to go around.
