Ughh...again

[Seeker of the Truth]

You guys ever feel like you can't do anymore studying or anything school related and just want to give up?

...that's what I feel like right now, I hate school. This stuff seems so pointless. As you already know, I'm a freshman, so that means I'm taking all of the pointless crap that I won't ever use again.

Aghh, this is great!

I am feeling like that too. I want to badly to just have a break from life for awhile, working full time and going to school full time is hard.

And I am still only a freshman, but I am going to be in school for a loooong time as I am going for my doctorate. Just hang in there, there are a ton of other people who know what you're going through

I "quit" college over the Christmas break, and then showed up a week after classes began, once again. it was great; i gathered the resolve over the break, whilst a quitter ^^.

Aghh, this is great!

It is!

Heh, don't worry about it buddy. It happens to all of us, and it happens all the time. There's a cycle: you start out in the fall with a lot of enthusiasm, and about the middle of spring you're burned out. You recuperate over the summer, and start the whole thing over again. You'll work like a dog, (hopefully) get good grades, and enjoy your summer knowing that it was well earned. Oh and by the way, you do use the stuff you learn as a freshman. Take it from someone who's been there: those freshman classes really do make you into a more well-rounded person, even though they have nothing to do with your major. Right now you're learning how to think and how to study as a college student. While you might not realize it, this is good for you.

Alas, the grass is always greener on the other side. I'm on a one semester hiatus from school (I graduated in December, and I don't start graduate school until late August). I know it sounds crazy, but what I wouldn't give for a moderate chunk of homework right now!

Yup, I needed a semester off myself.

Sad thing is I'm taking summer courses to catch up on my math.

Burnout here I come!

I'd say that two month is really the most anyone would need. It's been almost three for me. My life consists of waking up late, doing some work if I feel like it (I work from home, which induces laziness), doing some physics problems to stay sharp, and of course Bible study. Personally I can't wait to get back to school. I've actually been begging the grad schools I got into to let me start this summer!

Don't worry about it. Summer classes are usually a bit more relaxed (since you're only taking one or two), so you should be fine. I took a summer English class at my community college back when I was in high school. Sure, I was in there for three hours a day. But since that was my only class for the whole semester, it didn't seem like too much of a workload.

Yah, I guess.

I'm getting really stressed out right now though because I don't know if I should transfer to Georgia Tech or stay here (Southern Polytechnic). Really, I'm just confused if I want to work out of state or in-state. Georgia Tech is known nationwide, so I'd be better off going there if I want to go out-of-state.

I love decisions.

I don't have this. But I don't work hard in school, I just sorta stroll along through everything. I don't see any point in getting stressed out over anything. I guess my school is just really easy compared to most colleges...

That's because it's in Canada.

Just kiddin'

Oh man, I get so overwhelmed and tired of studying all the time...but then I just remember that it's only for um, 2 more years...hopefully. And the end result is worth it.
