not trying to be a smart ass. i myself work over 40hrs/wk, and have gone fulltime student at the same time, and it really fucking sucks. but i, myself, lose motivation rather quickly. so i was just wondering:
what do you do besides post on knoxgoth?
i am a senior at ETSU in computer science (emphasis I.T.) and most of my work has to be done on a machine with a broadband connection, so i when work gets on my nerves i post a little here and there.
i read and type fucking FAST so it doesnt take me as long to post it as the average reader to read down the page.
i had until friday a job doing home health care for my family but insurance got canned when my stepdad got laid off.
i have a job for graduate credits that is only 10 to 20 hours a week for next-to-no-fucking-$$$ monitoring one of the computer labs for CSCI majors.
i also read & study alot, write music, exercise (but nowhere near enough.. tyring to get a 20hr a week thing im designing soon as the semester is up), follow current events, cook, and stay really drunk on the weekends. play guitar and piano when i can too. i just post in random spurts. takes me like 15 mins if that and i throw up a few posts. its stress relief and humor for me when im spending like 9 hours workign nonstop on a project... pressure doesnt build if you stop every few parts and make a post.
see what im sayin?
im probably on the site 5 times less than people think. i read fast, post to any thread i read that i think ive got a good oneliner for, and thats it. mon-thru i post alot... wow i get up at 7 or 8 am all those days and get to sleep between 3-4. i dont fucking sleep at all from all the shit i gotta do and you gotta find a way to ease the tension of keeping your home settled, your dogs fed, your jobs done, your projects turned in, dinner made, make sure everyones got their medications, ect ect ect ect, its a hella lotta work. posting on boards and xanga keeps me sane since i dont have the time to play music and workout as much as id like.
you dont lose motivation if you NEVER STOP WORKING. i just usually have a computer around, its a great way to take a break, and all the machines i work on have KG has a homepage.
i know im leaving some of my duties off here, but still.
trying to get your life on track when you havent been doing anything to really better yourself is alot of work to restart. i graduate next december so i also read alot of job listings when i get my daily dose of the news. im also a fan of turn of the century philosophy, and do alot of readings into different forms of religious, masonic, and esotric histories, but this semester ive had to cut back on alot of my hobbies.
to those who bitch at my post count, sorry i read and type fast and you dont. you spend half the day if not all day if not days solid working on computer science projects you gotta stay level and have some fun with your computer. also make sure your hobbies are NONcomputer related... lol
i do as much as i can and learn as much as i can and i encourage everyone else to do the same instead of wasting your energies on dumb shit (like wondering what i do when not posting.)
oh yea, and friday and saturday i STAY DRUNK,
