Working and Studying, which one do you prefer?

Studying is fun and relax. Students do not have to worry about fierce bosses or going to work daily. The only worry is exams. Students only have to work hard for the exams period in order to score well unlike the workers in the industry where they have to perform throughout the year in order to impress the boss. Students enjoy the long holiday when they can go visiting various placese and hometown.

Unlike students, workers have no chioce but to wake up early every morning to travel to work and spend the rest of the days in office or field, waiting just for the evening to go home. Sometimes they have to bear with their unstoppable wife slowly describe how her day was. Workers have to face bosses asking for the deadline jobs to be completting and have to bear with Over time work without any Over time paid, sometimes. Unlike students, though, workers enjoy the fruitful of their work: Sum of $$$ just enough to pay phone, electricity and other michielanous bills.

Having a choice, I would choose to study instead of working. How about you?

I have not doubt that you prefer studying because you are working. Me too. I prefer working since I am studying. Thing is just the way it is. We may never never be satisfied. As for now, I miss the days in old high school a lot. But in those days, I wished i could leave high school as soon as possible.

For me, I prefer none of them. Working is not fun and studying is boring. I think you should ask "do you want to play or work?" Laughing

When the term is in progress, i'm bored coz i have a lot of assignments to do; when I was in vacation, it's also boring period coz I just play game everyday.

What is the good solution to solve the university student life?

Hahah, that was the question I used to ask myself. For me, during school term, I played game, do things I like to do i.e. surf net. During holiday, I usually take a break in Cambodia or going oversea for a short trip. When I'm back to Singapore, I again come to a real boring routine by staying in to surf web and sometimes hang out with our friends.

Yet, university life (in Foreign land) is fun. Working life has no choice but to wake up and go to work daily Sic!

I'm working and studying right now, and I prefer studying. Maybe if I liked my job more I'd prefer working, but I don't. Having to deal with rude customers is no fun at all. School is hard, but I find it more enjoyable.

study is always the best Very Happy I think working is nothing good. You have no choice but to go to work daily in the morning. You can't skip work Very Happy

I'm having exams right now - they are no fun!! I'm so stressed out - exams make me very nervous. But I still like school better. I'm taking a spring course just so I have something to do other than work. The last thing I ever want is to be stuck in a 9-5 job someday. Confused
