*sigh*

Seems the enthusiasm, i felt comming on in my previous posting didn't last long ... I've spent the last two days in bed - only getting up for a meeting yesterday that i simply had to attend....

I'm starting to realize that i won't make my bachelor by the end of January - a failed exam in Linear Algebra took care of that ;-/ - which unfortunately coincides with the letter i got from the State Educational Grants Office two days ago, that my grants will be suspended by the end of February 2007...
Of course i could write to them and say "Hey, sure i blew almost a year worth of studying grants away - only passing few subjects - but i would still be interested in prolonging the grants for a period or two..."

The fact is that i'm fed up with studying -- i want to find some employment -- which, by the way, shouldn't be that hard (i've heard)...

So why don't i just abandon the studies and go for it ...
Simply put : if i complete my bachelor, i'll be eligable for a significantly better salary, than if i chose to seek employment now, where all i have is a System Construction diploma from 2001 to show for...

It's so annoying that this had to happen now - i'm only 29 ECTS points away from acquiring the degree ... under normal circumstances this should be attainable within one semester -- but with the failed exam i'll have to postpone that till next semester ....
