On which I return, due to ADD symptoms

I'm back. See me on Tumblr.

I want to quit my RA job.

Reasons why:
  1. Get normal life back.
  2. Get friends back.
  3. Fewer homework distractions.
  4. The bureaucracy infuriates me.
  5. Worrying about getting caught for something small and insignificant.
  6. Less stress.
Reasons not to:
  1. Money. I have no other source of income.
  2. Money. Scholarships help parents pay for myself and sister to go to expensive colleges.
  3. I genuinely like my residents.
  4. Looks good to grad schools? Maybe? eh.
  5. I like the idea of having power.
  6. If I keep my job, I won't have to shake up my lifestyle.
  7. SINGLE ROOM.
  8. Automatic source of friends. Were I to quit, I'd have to make new ones.
Looks like I won't be quitting.

I don't know how to feel more like a student than an RA. I can't focus on my work; my job consumes me. EVERYTHING I do has something to do with it.

I need a vacation. Or better yet, to just go home.

Maybe now I'll get some work done.
