Aim higher than shop work. Surely someone with a degree can do better than that.

I'm an old guy but I remember having those feelings. The future will be much better than you imagine it.

You will have a different opinion about your parents' actions 10 or 15 years from now. At the very least, you'll understand where they were coming from.

My only advice is to avoid turning molehills into mountains because that's how insignificant disagreements can turn into lifelong grudges.

That said, being an adult is all about taking responsibility for yourself. Do what you feel is best for you.

I don't want to do shop work forever, but I'd rather be earning while I decide what I actually want to do. And once uni ends, I won't get my degree straight away so...

And I knoooow they have different opinions to me, I just don't know why they can't listen to what I have to say about why they're different.

I have just cleared a site of a huge amount of sale stuff. Awesome. Today I am mostly tidying, typing, and listening to music.

ETA: I have now reached £50 already in my fund raising and it's only January.

Will Cam needs to go out and buy fuel for the multiple-fuel fire.... but he can't be arsed.

Chip's off to have a lovely nap.

Chip's back from his lovely nap. Recharged and raring to go. An hour on the Internet, then a film.

Been animating all f**king day. Got a pilot to finish off tonight, and need to fit in enough sleep to keep me functional tomorrow in work.

Snooker final on TV, red wine, Chinese take-away, cat trying to surreptitiously steal prawn crackers.
Happy Sunday evening everyone

Aww. Wish I had Chinese. Yumm.

The neighbors announced a last-minute neighborhood fish fry so I'm cooking beans and filling growlers with beer. Wish I liked fish

The neighbors are all hunters and fisherman, so it was rainbow trout, redfish, red snapper, flounder and other assorted finny delicacies. I didn't eat any of it because I saw that they were frying it all in peanut oil (I'm allergic) but later learned that they'd blackened some of it in butter especially for me. I felt bad.

Lots of beer, homemade deserts and other snacks so it was still an enjoyable evening.

What time is it there DaButt?

7:17 PM; we're 6 hours behind the UK. At the office we use GMT for everything so I usually have a good idea about the current time in jolly old England.
