    It seems that at the start of every month, it is 10 days in after 2 days! It is the 10th of April already, where the **** does the time go?

    Anyone else experiencing this? Already a 3rd of the year gone.

    From what I've heard, most people seem to think time drags in, due to being less active.

    I'm just a student, but even the 3 and a half month break in summer feels like an eternity.

    FFS get outside for a nice long walk and fill your lungs with air, before your Mammy takes the Sally rod to ya!

    You can spend your life looking back and regretting stuff you didint do or you can get out there and grab it by the balls (life that is, not yer Mammy :pac:)

    You make a good point though, although I am quite active already,
    But that's why on my birthday I'm leaving. I came here on my birthday and I'll leave on my birthday :)

    Chaps.

    Don't waste your life away on the dole, if a job isn't forthcoming after 6 months of been unemployed in Ireland, then look to go overseas.

    Obviously if you are married and have a mortgage then this is more challenging to do but there is always a way.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,296 ✭✭✭bonzodog2


    I may be bored, but I won't go as far as timing flies. Not a hope.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,995 ✭✭✭✭blorg


    I'd try to look at all the new free time as n opportunity, do something you never had time to before.

    It's a long swim and the Atlantic is very cold. You'll drown.

    ha, oh really? well not everyone is as lucky as you to have a job, it's hardly CHOICE to sit there doing nothing every day, and some of us (most of us) try extremely hard to change that situation...cheek of you!

    With the recently unemployed they are only getting back what THEY themselves paid in while working, eg their own money. You may not have noticed but there is a recession on and many who would like to work lost their jobs (god forbid it happen to you.)
