[tinkerbell23]

I feel so tired- but GOD I AM
BORED!!!!!!!!!! Data collection & analysis in qualitive research, ethnography...... NOT for me!!! Could cry!!!

[sandyRoe]

Could you change to a more interesting course?

[dotty.]

You should stick with that you could be a actuary or statistician (sp), all big companies need statisticians

[Sqad]

So the tax payer has given you a chance.........your bored.....so you want out.

Will you repay the taxpayer?

[Booldawg]

i dont even understand those words!

[tinkerbell23]

I study nursing- qualify in december- i have a 4500 word essay i could be working on and not this- which dosent interest me! And that i dont find relevant!! Ive already sat through lectures on this.... I feel
That they pad our timetables out. Be better off workinh on my assesments- i definately will be repaying the tax payer when i get my job (if)

You mustn't give up. Only wimps give up. If you pass this it will set the pattern for the rest of your life. Keep going - you only have to get over each bump as it arrives. You can and you will!! ☺♥ So say after me - I can and I will. You got to university by being a cut above others in intelligence. So don't undersell yourself.

[Sqad]

starbuck.....well said.

"When the going gets tough, the tough get going"

[tinkerbell23]

Thank u star & sqad! Just today i feel a bit under the weather- plus we cant all be interested in everything! I guess im
More "hands on" .... I feel
Id be better off with my literature review rather than this repitition!!!!! Wise words as always from star <3

[starone]

And don't forget - if it was easy everybody would be doing it. Just take a step at a time.

[tinkerbell23]

aww i know- thanks for the support, i just feel i could be spending the time more wisely!!

coming up next- a thread re: uni work!! hehe xx

[whiskeryron]

not getting at you tinky but let me vent my spleen here< my daughter has worked for the NHS for 30 years, SRN, Midwife, Health Visitor, Nurse Practitioner, worked her way up into management & has become assistant Director in a management team & guess what under the new rules of the present government & their cuts has now been made redundent, her husband my son in law worked for local government & ditto made redundent. Because they have now got to review their outgoings they will not be able afford their present mortgage & have to look to finding cheaper accommodation elsewhere probably in a part of the country where the cost of housing is much cheaper.I know they are not the only ones to have to do this but what a let down after their dedicated service to the community.Ron.

[McMouse]

And your point is ron?

[whiskeryron]

my point is tinkerbell23 is studying hard & at the end of the day depending on whose in government you can end up with a kick in the goolies is it all worth it ?

[McMouse]

OP is about being bored and thinking about quitting. Doesn't imply she is working hard. The harsh economic fact is the country is has spent beyond it's means, has an unsustainable public sector burden and has to slim down. Your alternative is what ron?

[tinkerbell23]

Oh by the way......i only meant leave early today!!! Not the actual course- sorry i wasnt clear!!!...ill be back 9am tomorrow lol....ps i stuck it out today!!

Terrible ron....really terrible, i can only imagine the work your daughter hss done oger the years- people as dedicated as her are few and far between and i wish your family all the best xx

[whiskeryron]

mcmouse to be honest I don't know what the answer is imho the whole thing was never thought out properly.
tinkerbell23 thank you for your kind thoughts & wishes.

[cazzz1975]

your bored because your not focused, coming on here when you have stuff to do is a big no no

[tinkerbell23]

With facebook cazz! Such a distraction- was totally bored just because its one of those days- and im
