How lazy are we really at Club Mac? (1 Viewer)

[glitterfairy]

It could just be my degree. It could be the early time of year. It could just be my working hours (I only work about 4 hours a week). It could totally just be me.

For whatever reason, I am frequently feeling that I am not working as hard as my friends are (most of whom are doing arts/education type degrees at USYD). And when I say this, I mean they are working HARD in comparison to me who sits at home a lot twiddling her thumbs, because I don't really have anything major due till May.

What's going on?!?!?! I don't feel like I've suffered enough!!! lol.

hey thats the same as me!
but why study when you can get by without? ive got something due next week, but next week is a whole new week! why worry myself now?

Because when I'm jumping around saying "let's go out!" my friends are all groaning and saying they have so much work to do :S Makes me feel guilty!

*shrug* I just think some people react to the uni life differently - I know some people never have enough time even when they're only doing 2/3 subjects a semester whereas others have time to spare even while they're overloading with 5/6 subjects a semester. I know what you mean though - no one seems to have time anymore...

Let's see... This weekend, I did about 6 hours for my AHST261 speech, 3 hours for my law essay, and (together with today) did about 8 hours for my hieroglyphs speech.

i don't think the usyders do anything more than us (unless they are poor science students).

I havent turned up to MAS203 lectures since week 1.
I havent spent any more than 15 minutes prior to lectures doing a quick skim and highlighting the concluding paragraphs of readings.
I have spent most of my time in labs looking at devart and listening to online music.

:rofl:

Im not lazy! I just really like my subjects

Every day I spend at least 5-8 hours working. I have a psych test in week 7, a law essay due week 8, and two other assignments (law and psych report) due week 9/10...



But at least it will all be over by early May, and then I can cruise and just make notes with my spare time (rather than exert actual brain power).

i've done jack poop since the beginning.
im still reading through the stuff i was supposed to know 2 weeks ago.
but i keep falling asleep
i have some kind of sleepiness problem or something =/
sooo not ready for the influx of assessments in the next 2 weeks.

Grab a drink and join the rest of us

You fucking machine!

All my hieroglyphs study was sunk by two overly simply sentences in the exam:

1. This, my brother's boat.
2. Priest of the King.

I'll hate seeing all these people who didn't study at all get full marks when I worked my butt off and all we got was an adjectival demonstrative, an indirect genitive, a direct genitive, and two simple nouns.

But you're the one who has all the knowledge, dear It's the skills that are important.

Oh, the possibilities!

Yes dead language proficiency is a must for cocktail party!
Much better than speaking Potterish or Elvish
