but what i fucking hate about the uni is that the quantity of projects is so high that the quality of all projects has to suffer

each project gets a little shittier because there is just no way (just not enough time) to make them all good

so they all get mediocre

and i hate beeing mediocre

I know exactly what you mean.
Every damn time I start writing a termpaper, I plan bigger and bigger and the pile of secondary literature grows and grows and then the deadline comes and I lose another certificate
after an oral presentation with full points.
There should be a choice for the student. If you are really engaged and interested in a topic, you should be free to expand, or if you want ot do a lot of smaller things, do that.
But that's crazy talk, they are burning down the education system as we speak, and I want improvements

have you heard what's going on in austria?

they want to restore university tuition fee here.

€500 per semester

i guess i'll have to stop eating and sleep on the streets then

I'll soon be paying 650€/semester
But if I get the job here at University, that's already 400€/month more on the plus side, so yeah it might work out.

€650 per semester – are you fucking kidding me? that's insane.

are you some sort of special case or something, or is this normal in germany?

Today sucks....and yesterday, the day before and half of Sunday. I've had a flu-like virus. I'm starting to think I'd rather have a gunshot wound in the foot

And somebody needs to ban my invalid ass off e-bay I'm shocked at the amount of jewelry and shoes I've purchased while laying on the recliner. WTF

ebay is evil that way

I'm the quite usual case of a student who ahs been kicked out of half his courses for years AND has concentrated more on acquiring knowledge than certificates, so I'll be over time
next semester and forced to pay a penalty each semester. The worst part is that I have acquired the double of certificates needed, but the wrong ones.

When Im broke..they have what I been lookin for. when i got money..nothing cool to be found

Fixin to have my broe put my '74 Stratocaster neck on there. It's not a museum / collector piece, but hopefully I can get a few hundred out of it. (I'll regret selling it, like I do 75% of my stuff)

OK, so the doc explained the results of that MRT to me today.
The bursitis is gone, but the tendons in my shoulder possibly have some shit that only very old people get ??
Chronic degenerative tendinitis, something rheumatism-ish, but for tendons?
I don't really understand this stuff, it's a whole paragraph in Latin, but the doctor says the tendon is "altered"where it joins the bone, and the two words chronic and degenrative
both sound unfriendly.
Bottom line, this feels much worse than the bursitis, it just burns like hell all the time and he can only give me injections and send me to physiotherapy.
Maybe there never was a bursitis and the doctor was wrong with his pre-MRT analysis, it was just this other stuff and it got worse, I have no idea. But it is a pain in the ass for sure.

ahh all this has to be annoying for you stoney...never getting a straight answer

is it the shoulder where you have your guitar strap?

Yes it is. And you might be on to something there.
I hold my shoulder up in an unnatural way all the time when I play guitar, and I've always wondered whether that's not bad for it.
But the doctor said my spine is straight (well, or s-shaped the good way lol) and everything is in balance.
However, the guitar strap might very well have caused the original problem.

alot of musicians end up with shoulder or elbow problems by the way they hold their guitar

Don't fib, B~ it's from masturbating

And no, Wattage, I have not disappeared. Merely been on hiatus.

I was totally going ot make the exact same joke in my original post but didn't

I'm sorry to hear about the diagnosis Stoney. Hopefully the PT will help provide relief.

Damn, my flatmate is moving out and in with his new gf.
We just moved here, and he wanted this flat more than me (though I love the flat), and now he is already moving out again.
So now I am searching for my SEVENTH flatmate. I'd say fuck this, but I can't pay the rent on my own, so yeah.

me and Misty will move in with ya
