Clare, I think a lot of it might depend on what uni you go to. The London ones are quite bad for getting any sort of community atmosphere, for instance. What uni did you go to?
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Well, I just started my new part-time job at Towson University's English lab. My schedule needs to be trimmed of my Tuesday and Thursday afternoon hours, and I'd like to pick up some hours Wednesday (as it is, I open the lab, have class, four hours of free time, another class, then close the lab ... 8a - 9p) ...
And is it BORING. Class doesn't start until tomorrow so I'm sitting around here today for four hours seriously considering clawing my eyeballs out.
I'm still working at Papa Johns ... I should get about forty hours this week (I doubled at Jacksonville yesterday), even though my GM* at my home store slashed my hours to 15 a week. As a result, I need a new job (maybe keep PJs like 15 hours a week total ... Sunday day shift at Cockeysville, and Monday closing at Jacksonville).
So, tomorrow I'm going to go by Bill Bateman's Bistro and follow up on the application I turned in to them last week (conveniently, they're right on Towson's campus!!!). Thursday I'm also going to go to Carrabba's Italian Grill in Hunt Valley and see about a job waiting tables there.
Twelve credits ... two jobs now (at three stores), and soon three jobs (at four stores) ...
... why do I have the overwhelming urge to smack certain people who don't work their ass off while going to class?**
*Asshole bitch fucker who needs to be raped in the asshole with an oak tree!!!!! He'd better watch out when I'm an LEO, 'cuz I know what Baltimore bars he likes to drive home drunk from.
**In all fairness, my parent's pay my tuition. I'm just responsible for rent, books, parking permits, car payment, car & health insurance, utilities, food, credit card bills ...

Well it's actually where we perform bizarre quasi-ethical experiments on the English language. I've heard that some of the L33T group's work may have been leaked.

I didn't work my first three semesters of college. I relied on my parents and savings to get me through it. Then I worked two years in the residence halls, and all I got to show for it is a lousy GPA. Oh yeah, also, THEY ATE MY SOUL! So I started working again, but this time off-campus. I make enough to pay my bills and afford my necessities as well as tuck a little away into my savings account.
My experiences with working and going to school have been fairly positive aside from losing my soul.
