So, my typical situation. I angst over an open-ended assignment that I don't know how to do, and it turns out that there was a whole bunch of other stuff I forgot about. That's due on Monday.

Well, to hell with stress and with education. I've been doing this kind of stupid crap for three years. I don't like my degree that much, but I might as well finish it.

I don't know why I bother. I can't do it, and it's not worth it. I wish I could just drop out and quit, start again and do something else. Too late now. Have to slog on.

I don't know why I do stupid stuff and end up with everything to do at the last minute, but I don't feel like making an effort any more. Can't go backwards, can only go forwards with some really terrible grades, and they say there's no jobs to be had anyway.

Moan, whine, complain, etc. Anyone feel like commenting? No? Feels a little better just to express this at all.

Well i have the same difficulty. struggling with study. only i really love it - it's just that i find it really hard to stay on top of everything, assignments seem to take me forever and I seem to always be behind. Right now, I simply feel too sick to work - physically vomiting and my mind is blank.
so don't know whether it makes you feel any better to know you are not the only one but that's all I can offer...actually I'm really impressed you've done as much as you have because I really do drop out repeatedly.

i had the same thing with my degree. not much i can say, but it does feel good at the end to have achieved something. and like most struggles in life, you end up learning a lot. which probably isn't much consolation now...

It's just me ranting. I'll get over it and just be more disciplined about my work in future.

Thanks for taking the time to post, at least.
