Back to College 3: The Finale

I'm now finally starting my third and (hopefully) final year in college studying vehicle maintenence and repair. If I pass this year, I'll have my diploma and will be out in the real world looking for a garage to take me on. Yet again, loads of people have dropped out or not made it into the third year. Last year, there was about 45 students. This year, there's only 10 I know most of them which is good but it's a shame so many people didn't make it or chose not to continue.

In other news, I went to see Muse last Friday at their homecoming gig in Teignmouth, the first time they've played there in 15 years. They put on a hell of a show, it really was an awesome night. There were a few local bands supporting, one being a guy called Cosmo Jarvis with songs such as "Mummy's Been Drinking Again" and "Sebastian the Gay Pirate". An odd guy but was pretty funny.

I don't wanna go back to college

Wow, thats a huge dropout rate. When I was at Uni the first time my course went from 125 at the start of the 1st year to about 85 at the start of the third year. :S Its always worrying when that happens. I am also dredding goin gback to regular schooling, I start my Masters on 5th Oct, and I am quite scared. More than anything I don't want to give up my free time, but I know the qualification will be worth it. Good luck! I'm sure you will be glad to get back after the first few days... and just think how satisfying it will be to be able to complete your three years of hard work.

Love the topic heading!
You should enjoy this 'game' while you can - Life (and associated crust-earning) has a much higher difficulty setting ...
The gig sounds awesome - I shall check out Cosmo forthwith.
Have fun!

YOU WENT SEE MUSE? Okay, seriously jealous. Can't wait for The Resistance, and good luck on your course.

Look on the bright side. A high dropout rate means that a) there is less competition for jobs and b) you are better than all those wimps!
