PP: My mom's laptop crapped out, and now she has a new laptop and has to redownload all 30-ish gbs of work she lost. This is a PP for me because this means I basically can't play games online or stream any videos until its done, and its gonna take a long time thanks to our 2 MB/second speed.
Related PP: I am seriously fucking sick of Canada's stone age internet. You know what Netflix said about our internet? That it's comparable to third-world countries, and this is entirely true, our internet is powered by the prayers of children and hamsters on wheels.

Well, at least we have internet... It honestly doesn't seem that important until you have to pay for it, and in a assbackwards place like Ottawa, it's killer.
PP: I am still sick and it doesn't help I have about 3 essays to due in a week (plus a take home exam on top of all of that).

PP: Got home from spending a week with my girlfriend to find the house in a complete wreck and my microwave busted all to hell like somebody dropped it off of the counter somehow. There is STILL no power and apparently my roommate is moving out in 3 days which means I have that long to find somewhere else to live and somewhere to store my stuff. I'm probably gonna just have to get rid of my furniture because it's too much trouble to move. That still leaves me with two tvs, 7-8 boxes of books and assorted other things, and all of my clothes and DVDs that I need to store. And I have even less of an idea where I'm going to stay. My girlfriend said I can move in with her but we've only been dating for a month next week which is too soon for me to move in with her two hours away where I will rarely ever see my friends. I need to stay here for at least two more weeks so I can be here for the birth of my goddaughter and for my best friend's wedding.

PP: As some of you may know I don't have so much as a phoneline in my own flat so I'm here once a month doing techy stuff on my parents' broadband as well as goofing off/gaming/doing serious stuff. Trouble is my father's decided to look into upgrading the broadband connection. This involves the router being left on at all times for the ISP to do line tests so they can suss top speeds and packages. This of course means getting cut off randomly every couple of minutes and reconnecting.
PP2: Playing Anarchy Online with dodgy connections.
PP3: If you play a "Pet Class" in AO (such as Engineer, Bureaucrat or Meta Physicist) who use pets as a principle fighting weapon you lose your pet if you lose your link and don't reconnect after two minutes.
PP4: Every time I go link dead I have to sit there and frantically try to relog hoping my Pet is still there as it not only costs me nanoenergy (mana) to cast a new pet it takes me ages to do all the teaks and trims to get my Robot Pet back to being fighting fit as well as costing cash and nano to spawn a new Shell in reserve long with cash.
PP5: Going link dead with an Engineer *this close* to levelling with the Pet in a fight and chewing furniture while you wait to see if you've survived or are respawning with a big long grind for XP ahead of you again. The progression scale for levelling in AO is not linear but logarithmic so at Level 144 it's a long, long slog and even longer before I reach the (Free To Play) Max Level 200. And I do this for fun?!?

PP: My mom got somebody else to do the rest of my work. When I do work for her, I measure pieces of clothing to make sure they're all correct, and then inspect them for any flaws or things they could improve on, I got all the measuring done, and decided to save the rest for the next day since it was getting alte, but then all of a sudden she has somebody to do the inspections, meaning I get paid less. I would have skipped dinner and stayed up late last night if she had told me they needed to be shipped out tomorrow.

PP: I've been working for nearly two years to tackle a debt owed to the college I attended that prevented me from re-enrolling for more classes. As of today, I have maybe one or two payments left before it will be paid in full and I can go back to school. Now, this part is wonderful news, as it will be a huge weight off my shoulders. The problem is that I have no idea what I'm going to do with myself once I've finally made my last payment.
The school I went to is three hours away from where I live now. I don't think I should have any issues enrolling again, and my best friend is offering to be my roommate and help me get a job, but I'm still worried about cost of living, especially since I don't think my parents are going to help me out this time around. ESPECIALLY not if I'm living with my friend, since they kind of don't like him.
On the other hand, I'm living at home for free, and my only bill is car insurance. I have a job that I'm relatively happy with for now, so I'm pretty comfortable financially. Thing is, I'm miserable at home. I greatly appreciate what my parents are doing for me here, yes, but I'm so bored and lonely all the time. I have one friend that I hang out with, but other than that, work and facebook has become my social life. As far as school goes, the one I went to is notorious for being fairly stingy with transferring credits, so I don't want to have to pay for a lot of classes I've already taken at a new school, not to mention the higher tuition costs.
What it all boils down to is having to make the decision between taking the easy route and remain stuck at home, or taking the riskier route to get what I want: a change of scenery and a sense of completion when I graduate from where I started. Oh, and being able to see a lot of my best friends more than once every few months. That would be pretty awesome, too. The time to make the decision is rapidly approaching, and it's making me freak the hell out.

TeeZee: I don't know what you will choose, but I will say this. You've held a job and paid off your debt. That is impressive and you should be proud of yourself. Combine that with the way you are weighing this decision and I will bet on you succeeding regardless of which you choose. You are responsible, rational, and thoughtful, I think you'll find a way to make it work.
PP: Not having a PP at the moment, but knowing that the day is early and one will be coming along.
