School
While I'm liking my schooling, now that I'm halfway in I'm having to admit to myself that the Tolkien certificate isn't going to happen. I can't keep up. I'll continue to try to get caught up to see if I can change my mind, but I really don't see me making it. At least I tried and at least I got to take the class I've been wanting to take forever. It's been worth it.

Sad! Will there be another opportunity?
P.S. Relative to our current chat on Messenger, all this has is a little box to click to say I'm not a robot, but it lets me "publish [my] comment" without clicking it, so...?
Well, I'd have the opportunity to start any semester I wanted to. But I can't keep up. I'm too tired all the time to be able to read and I waste too much time doing whatever that I just can't do it. I don't have the discipline or the ability anymore.
I understand that -- I think it'd be very hard to go back to school now! Even though I know a few people who do it while still working!
I did that one class while working at the nursing home, but honestly, I think the fact that I had crappy internet helped so I couldn't waste so much time online. :/ And in fairness to me, I was about 10 years younger and thus less tired as well as closer to the time I had done school.
But yeah, kudos to those who can pull it off!
I wonder if the fact that it's audited affects your motivation? Surely the hipster lecturer makes it more a chore and therefore makes you less likely to get off FB. But I think, if you were paying for it you'd be more invested in getting the certificate, so you'd be more disciplined about academic work. Even so, I completely totally 1000% get being too tired to do anything work after work!!!!! (12:27am and I haven't done my work!!!)
