Ah well.

My dude, you should be in full on panic crunch mode for finals right now if you need to excel in them, not TET! Much tutting.

Yeah, I have not really noticed the NS summer shenanigans last year, even though I had a bit more time that summer. Then again... I spent most of that time on my region's Discord, so...

Alas, this year, I have a spring session class in May and June for Math. Get that out of the way, so my parents will stop nagging (and so I can get the mandatory course out).

There's a difference between the company getting rid of their shitty laptops and the company making you go to the goddamned store and buy shitty laptops for "company use."
