Happy days are here again

I'm already to the point in my grad school life where if I quit school now, I would only feel a little bit bad about it. What would be my conscience yelling at me for not finishing my last semester for the rest of my life doesn't even have an argument. That's the mood I'm currently in. The library has been closed for most of christmas break and thanks to the snow, it's still closed. I can't get any articles I need for my thesis paper because of it and my computer has a virus which leaves me with my work computer that doesn't have everything I need on it. And thanks to the snow, I can't get my computer fixed. Oh and I'm not getting paid every hour I'm not working thanks to the snow. My thesis is due April 1st and if it snows every second from now until that day, that fact will not change. On top of that looming evil, I have an online class this semester that is teaching me how to work Microsoft Word basically. It's a complete waste of my time and the book/software was $184. I thought the point of going to school FULL-TIME meant that you actually go to class and learn from a person, not take classes online where you teach yourself everything. It all comes down to this really: I have the job I went to school for and I don't want to be in school anymore. I'm ready to put all my efforts toward my job and not have to skip the fun things I get to do at work because of school, when the point of school is to get the job I already have. Make sense? The good news I just got is that I get to be the GA for the kayaking class this semester so I get to kayak every tuesday night starting in March. As far as all this snow goes, can we all just pray that it NEVER happens again? Thanks. Jesus is good.
