Yeah, I always kind of liked school. Especially if I was doing school work on something I was actually interested in. I could be writing essays about that sort of thing for hours on end and not get bored. About a year and a half ago, I worked for 49 hours straight with no breaks. (didn't even break for meals, just noshed…
mandatory post about how I wrote my dissertation in one night, and managed to get a first on it. I have honestly found pro studio work a little nicer than being a student.

Is my kid a curse and no fun or rewarding to raise? No. Is my kid probably a lot more of a…
Yeah i was a little confused by the parenting argument. Im a young guy so i am not even thinking about that at any stage, but whenever ive had to look after somones kid, i found that it did vary greatly in how easy it was depending on the child.
