Thanks anons. Just woke up, drank my cocoa, and I'm off. It's Electronics, so I figure if I just read the "Review Notes" they've set up, which is about 120 pages, then review them over and over, do some older exercises and the such, I'll be able to write a 6/10 and pass. I've just got to grind hard these 6 days.

Of course they know. Who do you think took me to the hospital all those times? They're just hicks who think it's all tough and I'm not studying properly instead of picking up that I'm doing nothing. But hey, it's their decisions that brought me here. I'm taking responsibility for being lazy after some point, but I kept following their advice and orders for more than 20 years now, and every single time things got worse. They never listened. If they had, I wouldn't be here. I would've already finished. So I don't feel bad about quasi-leeching off them. Until I'm done from Uni anyhow. I'm talking about special stupid people here
>saw that I had a fever
>too embarassed to call the doctor
>rush me to the hospital on Christmas Eve
>hospital barely working due to the holidays
>they dump me there for the night and I get worse
>doc comes and goes "it's defs a miningitis"
>parents freak out pin me to the wall and scream that I'm going to die in a few hours
>get a spinal tap
>doctor is a femoid and her femoid helper
>they can't find the spine
>get about 20 punctures
>I was just their lab rat
>lay immobile for two weeks
>can't even move my head because the fluid's missing
>have to piss in a bottle
>a crazy drunk escaped his bed and almost killed me before the nurse tackled him
>lost my exams
>lost a whole semester of studying and fell behind
>now have chronic back pain
>tfw I just had a cold
And that's the tip of the iceberg. They're unironic retards who scream and shout then put a facade of
>we just be workin for u, we be doin nothin for us, u be ungrateful
when you criticize them. They've ruined my academic years by forcing me to study things irrelevant to my direction. They stopped me from all kinds of sports then accused me of getting fat. They stopped me from hanging out with friends of 10+ years then accused me of being a friendless shut-in. They have been telling me to
>have sex
since I was 15. I had a lump in my balls that prevented me from sleeping for over a year, and they refused to let me see a urologist, saying I was just a virgin who needed to get laid. One time they blew up and gave me a rant of how I'd be sucking cocks on the street if I didn't become a doctor. And so on and so forth. This is my life. Every day. A pair of contradictory morons who burp, fart and scream on their phones 24/7, and then claim the moral high ground. But they support me with money, so I can't really say anything. They've micromanaged my life, took all the wrong decisions, never listened, and now ridicule me for everything.

So I don't much feel bad. I'm just sad I've been held back so many years. I need to get out of this...

It's not a question of space. If I aquire more space, I'll simply keep filling it with more such things. And they're ultimately useless. I just need to force myself to keep around the few things that I should out of nostalgia, and disregard the rest. If I get a new HD, with 2 more TBs, I'll download more collections. More shows. More books. More useless rabble that will neither help me, nor will I ever read. In a way, this must be an exercise in restraint. I need to pick and choose. I have to do this.

Well, I'm not talking about that. I just want to read a couple of books.

>Do you mean Greek lit? Homer's epics, which is about the most important work, alongside the Bible, and likely some Indian and Chinese works which I don't know well) (also the playwrights and historians)
Sure, but there's more philosophy out there past ours. There's Roman stuff and then we keep going. I don't know a lot about /lit/ anon, I'm just trying to be fair.

>Duolingo probably isn't the best method to learn languages yeah, I don't recommend it.
I just went and download learning packs. They've got textbooks and the such, like in frontistiria.
>You really do have a problem with all that hoarding.
Yeah, I know.
>Delete everything you've got.
I can't. I've deleted a lot of things, but I can't delete the few things I've got left. I just need a bit of a bigger HD to store all the stuff I can't get rid of. When I finish a tv show or movie I delete it, it's just books and the like that I want to keep. You never know what'll be scrubbed off the 'net.
>Get things when you actually want to read them, that is, moment you do, not in advance. You can get them at any time.
Eh, with these torrents they're not always alive. I used to have 300 GBs of X-Men comics, I deleted them, the site went down, the guy who creates those collctions lost them, and now I'm rebuilding them one by one through libgen. I know that it's not important, but I have to have them stored. I want to do a readathon at some point, just to close the page. Same goes for Iron Man (60 GBs) and Green Lantern (50 GBs). I don't care for Capeshit these days, but I need to finish them and a couple of others to close the doors of my childhood. Heck, I never even completed Sandman or Fables, and I used to really like them.

It sounds silly and irresponsible, but I have to do it. I have to read the books, buy the Hot Toys when they come out, and then I'll be done. I need to do it this way to have "proof" that I liked those characters/properties at some point, regardless of my current feelings. The circle must be completed. I've deleted tons of shows and comics; I can differentiate between things that are important and not. It's just that there are still some nonsensical, silly things that I haven't gotten closure on yet.
>Μη οκνεε. Stop lingering, stop delaying.
I know, I know. I really should. 1/4th of my life is already every, pretty much, and I've got nothing to show for it.
