....am I the only one who finds that funny

I don't know what you're talking about :idc:

This is a hard one.

My biggest education aspiration is to get my doctorate in European history something I wanted for awhile though my laziness is worryingly getting the way a lot but I don't know if it's more important than my social aspirations to have a family,my friends, etc. So I have no idea.

Better get off TiBB roy

...I knew you wouldn't...I mean you're *working* Niamh
* disclaimer...'working' is entirely fictional...no similarity to actual work was ever intended*

I can multi task :idc:

This.

social i work part time to get money not in any way coz i want to or i love it lol

The way I look at it is if I concentrate on my education and career, I can get a good paying job (hopefully!) and be fairly comfortable while still having some friends as well. However if I was to concentrate on friends only, I wouldn't be able to get a goob job. Focusing on my career seems to be the best option because you can have both.

Education/Career.

At this point in my life it's this that matters most as it determines where the rest of my life is headed, and sets me off on my independence. Without it I'd be living at home until I'm 40 most likely.

But, I've never been a "social butterfly". I get on well with work colleagues and I have my close friends and casual friends but constantly meeting new ones isn't a priority in any way, shape or form.

But, during the past year at uni we've had a lot of conference trips and talks so I've had the chance to mix with new people a bit.
