It's somewhat frustrating, to say the least, but in recent times, life has been getting in the way. Every time I feel like I've cleared my schedule and will be more do used on work, something seems to pop up.

The recent saga is school and it's been a thorn in my side for a very long. It's something that I honestly should have been done with by now but I've suffered from administrative issues.

Now, I have to go back there to complete the program. I just have one course to complete and then make a couple of corrections in my thesis.

It feels pointless...for now

Now you're probably wondering why I let it linger for so long and the truth is that engineering has felt pointless for a while now.

I use to dream about being an engineering lecturer and that dream is probably still alive. However, I'm not interested in doing it as a career but more as a hobby.

Ever since I got fully involved with crypto, content writing, and the many potentials of investing, my interest in traditional 9-5 jobs has dropped to levels below zero.

Getting a degree is pretty much an indication of my interest in participating in a 9-5 job. This is even more evident in the fact that my entire career in crypto hasn't ever relied on my academic qualifications.

Obviously, I have no interest in getting a 9-5 job but the thing is, I don't want the money and time I've invested in the course to be wasted. So I'm going to be going to the school to do what I have to do, so I can graduate completely.

I hate it there

I think one of the hardest parts of going to the school is that I absolutely hate it there.

The school is within the confines of a military base and they totally suck at running a school. The environment is very combative and makes me feel really nervous.

What will it really cost?

Other than the $3,000 fee that my parents paid, going back there is going to cost me a lot of man-hours and brain cells.

First of all, I'll have to take a 30minute drive from my place to school, deal with their annoying protocols, and then find who needs to be found.

After all that stress, I still have to work out what needs to be done for me to be in the clear.

What can I do with the degree?

Well, it's useless for my earnings but not useless. Having a master's increases my chances of emigrating to Canada, based on their score rating thingy.

Other than Canada, I'm sure there are other countries that would be welcoming to someone with a degree. So, having a master's degree isn't totally a waste of time.

Oh well

Of course, money is still more important in my quest, so I have to focus on that. That's why spending all this time and effort on this degree feels like a chore.

I need to focus my attention on my investments and find ways to squeeze out more profit that will be reinvested. Instead of focusing on that, I'll be busy at school, trying to sort out the final touches of my program.
