The life as a student..
.. is nothing compared to being a working professional in your 20s, living it large (or at least medium) in London. The city has been great these past four or so years, but it's not actually until now that I manage to enjoy it fully. As a student, you always have exams and essays, and more essays, and then some exams hanging over you, and I never allowed myself to chill out when I knew I had work to do. Hangovers were always filled with extra anxiety because of this...
Yes, I admit, I was one of the 'good' students who, most of the time, stayed in and did my homework, aiming at high marks for my work - but I don't regret it at all. I loved every second of my degree at Goldsmiths (well perhaps not that philosophy class with the drooler Burns, but the rest was pretty good) and i think I will have good use for it in the future.
But oh how I love having a job (a job I really enjoy I should add), working Mon - Friday's, and having the rest of the time, plus holidays, to do things I want to do. And getting paid for your hard (most of the time) work!
Dear friends who are still studying: Hang in there, I promise you it's only going to get better.
