You don't have money in college? WHO SAID THAT

Yeah, that's the paradox. When you have a job you earn enough money you have the money to on vacation, but don't have the time anymore. In college you don't have the money, but you do have the time :p

@zest: You saying that to Eyli or me? Ya little punk!

John

There's always the mindset of "earning enough to get away from it all!"

John

Well, you *could* do a random vacation. It's just that, don't be surprised if the company randomly dismisses you haha!

@John; Yeah, but annual leave is fixed to a max amount of days, which is not even close to holidays you standard get when in college.

John

@Eyli: Ohh.. I see what you mean. That's pretty much your 'annual leave', in terms of the working life.

Maybe you're saying all this because you had friends

And sure there are weeks you make 60h+, but you have a lot more freedom to plan things and also weeks not much happens

Freedom, like time mostly. Being able to say, I'm gonna bail on studies today because I wanna go to a music festival, or go random on a week of holidays :P

And I miss freedom :o College sure isn't fun all the time, but it gives you an amount of freedom that you won't get when you have a job

@zest: I don't too. I mean. I don't miss school. I hate formal education in fact!

Eyliana

Hehe, maybe I'm just complaining because I have to work all day but don't get paid for working all day

16 Aug 19:35

John

@Eyli: Y'know what.. being out of college for so long, seems to me adults are pretty much kids trying to act as if they aren't.

16 Aug 19:35

Jun

I'm fine with that, really. I just don't see why people "miss" school or college D:

16 Aug 19:34

Jun

--

Is it because I'd have to work all day?

16 Aug 19:34

Eyliana

--

Or still in college, that's fine to

16 Aug 19:34

John

Haha!

Once you are out of college you wish you were still a kid :P

Once you're out of college, you'd realize age don't matter that much..
