Lectures and homework take in a crazy amount of time. And Im also trying to do things like career workshops, job fairs, do research, go see guest lecturers. And also WORK. Good Jesus why do I also have to work???? Making time for the girlfriend is ROUGH. Making time for other friends is impossible. And I had wanted to join student and professional organizations, but theres just no way i can. If Im not doing homework or studying, Im working or taking a nap.

Having to take the bus everywhere is a real drag, too.

Im sleeping about four hours a day.

Im dying man.

Took you that long? I kid

You'll get through it. If you can, find some recommendations by your advisers of teachers that are known to be good. Maybe they're not big on tons of papers and writing assignments.

Almost every semester, I have said "fuck this. I'm done. So sick of writing!" Obviously I haven't quit but it's been tempting.

It's tough. Just keep reminding yourself why you're doing it and use whatever else you can for encouragement. That was what I needed to get through to the end
