Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT
yeah, i never really got that first hand, but i grew up hearing about how far i will come and how proud my family is going to be when i graduate from university to be something huge. i can't recall it being just 'praise' or being in any way tongue-in-cheek either, and it carried on to my late teens. i also remember the disappointment they tried to hide when they realised my school career was rapidly going downhill because of a thorough burnout and what i scraped the surface of in my earlier post. also, coming to the realisation that i did let them down was very demoralising to me at the time and didn't help my condition the slightest

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT
At least I noticed the eventual burnout coming, and dropped out (though I was planning to drop out and change "majors" anyway, so it was convenient).
After a year or doing jack shit, I'm ready to tackle that boogie man called university again.

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT
I'm guessing a major reason for me being happy and willing to carry on my family name is because I'm basically my family's last hope, and it would be a fucking shame for its name to die after I found out so much about it.

I want to win in a lottery.
Don't we all?
Regarding to the subject, if it were by me, I would get the fuck out of there and start my own stuff somewhere else, thing that I MAY do in a future.

If you see that you're going to burn out it might be a good idea to remember that slowing down(rather than quitting) is always an option.
It might be a long time before you get results but overwhelming yourself will only lead to poor performance and excessive stress.

In my opinion there is no "burning out" when it comes to school. If you want to finish something, you either will because you want to, or you don't because you hate it and didn't want to do it in the first place.

Depends, but I'd say 13 years of school + 9 months in the army + another 4 years in school without any real breaks from it aside from a few months of summer vacation each year gets a bit old at some point.
I consider the time I've spent unemployed being a hikky neet as an extended vacation and a time to figure out what the hell it is that I actually want to do instead of just going full speed into a direction I'm not entirely sure about myself.

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT
You're lucky you can either find a job to sustain yourself or that your family is so generous as to allow such a thing. Some people don't have that sort of luxury, so it getting old or not is entirely subjective.
As for you figuring out what you want to be, I sadly can't understand that since I always knew what I wanted, right from the elementary school. I guess I'm the lucky one in that regard.

Socialist welfare state takes care of that part, even for us white people.

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT
Because, at least in our culture, you have to validate every day some way or another. You have to tell yourself that you did something productive or that you had a valid reason not to. Working is the most common way to achieve that validation.
