Teenage Woes

[tiggerai]

Being at school sucks. It's amazing anyone gets through with their sanity intact. My sympathies go out to you. University is a lot lot better, as hanging around with idiots is purely optional.

The real world is even better than that too!!

I hated uni, hated school more and absolutley having the time of my life being a twenty*cough* something.

Well I'm not uni's biggest fan and I'd have PMSL if someone had asked if I was going to do anything post grad..

Heh.. oh well it's only one more year

I do prefer having a real job, even if there are responsibilities attached to it. It's better when there isn't though

Isn't there a scientific bod somewhere that wrote a paper on the mental problems of teenagers?

I'm sure that he said that teenager DON'T get through it with their sanity intact...

I'd have to agree

Aye, apparently it's a fact that a male goes through a mental upheaval between the ages of 17 and 25 and that's the most common age for suicides. Straight up guv, that's when panic attacks and anxiety strike most.

Girlies, apparently, get it earlier and not half so bad and not for so long.

So there you go. Me? I just drank lots of beer for eight years

I suppose you could always buy a handgun, dress in long black coats and listen to Austrian, white- supremacist music, or is that not helpful advice?

I hate school too, got 2 years left, roll on getting a job

I didn't like school till about 6th form where I met with one of my still now best mates. Uni was brilliant and had a core groups of 'us lot' who did stuff together, and I am still very good mates with one of them. My MSc was OK too. Job wise I have some excellent friends. If you hate school, I do suggest you try out 6th Form, or college. The amount of mentalities that change is quite surprising. If you can afford Uni, then go.

Just make sure you get some job experience in as well over the holidays.

My life didnt start until uni. Met the best mates i could ask for, i go out 3 times a week clubbing, bowling & 2 meals a week with all my mates. Iv stayed in fantastic accomodation and i met the perfect girfriend a guy could ask for (till she cheated on me anyway) who i met through uni. Realistically there isnt much more i could want, Iv loved almost every minute of it! Anyone debating uni needs to go, just for the social side of things!

Fantastic accomodation?! In our second year the house we had, we threatened to call the environemental health inspector if our landlord didn't drop our rent!

I must admit i had probably the best 3 months of my life i'll ever have, the summer between my first and 2nd year, i worked about 5-6 hours a week as a code monkey for hire on the net. It even had fantastic weather, i spent the rest of my time just pissing away time with my new friends!

You may hate work too; on the bright side you've only 40 or so years left of it.

Have fun, you're young and healthy . Old advice but the best you'll hear today.

In these economic times, it's unlikely

There may well be a good long period of non-work

You better not be short of presents this year because of this economic crap, or I'll be taking a hammer to your kneecaps.

I don't know.. perverting my thread! Not allowed!

and santa - presents are to be left next to my bed this year, not next to the tree.... If I have to get out of bed I'll freeze to death as my radiator isn't working.
Thanks!

Presents will be left under the tree where they should be.

You will also have too much wrapping paper, too much food amd drink, crap TV, limp decorations, out of tune gimme some money carol singers, weird manic feelings about where your life is leading and complete nervous and physical exhaustion if you have kids.

If I start making changes to Christmas, it won't be Christmas any more .
