Expand There is yet another vehicle to show you... its been in my life since 2007, althought I hadn't seen it for 4 years and thought I never would, but the Gods of cars decided to give me a chance to get it again. As happy as I am to keep it, importing it to Portugal from Germany means I am, effectively, paying for it all over again... it will cost over 5000 euros to legalize it, which was exactly my half when in 2007 I bought it half ways with my ex husband... Anyway, I do indeed have too many toys, only short of an off road bike and a vibrator! The 1st I can't afford, the 2nd I don't need!! 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The big problem with uni is that the first year is fairly easy and it's all a big adventure, then it ratchets up a bit in the second year and the third year can be pretty harsh, depending on the course. My youngest had a real hard time in year 3 and was close to throwing the towel in several times!

Expand Both of mine have had that shock. They are both on demanding courses and the youngest had run himself in the ground trying to party and get through the work. I think Uni's changed the way they approach things a while ago and ride them in the first term expecting half not to come back after Christmas so they don't waste their time and the Uni ends up with successful looking students. One of the state schools round here is now like that, they have A level mocks the end of the very first term and literally throw out anyone who doesnt do well enough- makes their pass stats look good. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Sometimes they don't get on with the course. It just doesn't suit them. I guess that it's better that he does something about it now than struggling and bailing out farther into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
