'Kin students

[dirty bristow]

First class this morning, I got up and walked out and went to the library to work. Fucking bellends simply cannot act like grown ups.
They are nearly 20 and on a degree course yet act like 5 year olds and as they are paying for the course, there seems to be little the lecturers can do.
Advice to anyone, South Tyneside College: Staff are first class, pupils are shit.
Rant over for the next few minutes...

Know what you mean mate. I'm studying part-time at Northumbria while working. Every lecture is full of kids pissing about on mobiles or talking/mucking about.

I might sound like a boring old get (nearly old enough to be their dads) but I'm there to learn. Most of them have absolutely no chance out in the big wide world.

Exactly the same here. They roll in late every morning too.

That's why they're there mate, that's why they're there.

When I was at college if you were any more than 5 minutes late you were sent back out

"youth is wasted on the young"

One of my regrets in life not sticking in at uni, I imagine it'll be there's too in a few years

Ones in Durham are the worst tbh, proper hooray Henry's, the lasses go round with a broom handle up their arses. The lads have sideshow bob haircuts and flip flops - the fools. No, I'm not jealouse either, been there done that.

That's why the rest of us went to uni when we were still kids.

i was doing my degree on a night time placement, two nights a week and catching up at home. We were actually ahead of the full time pupils and generally got higher results, mainly because we wanted to learn on the night time course.
