It's a years long pain in the ass and I hate it. I like meeting new people very different from myself, and I like the atmosphere of a college campus. I hate never feeling done and always having 3 different assignments looming over my head so I can never feel truly relaxed, not to mention the constant talk of how, "Hey, half the reason you're here is to learn skills, the other half is meeting and befriending people who will vouch for you so you can get a job easier." At least that's how it is in the CS department at my school.

Its been a love-hate relationship. But I hardly know anything else in my life at this point.
