What the fuck is going on? Who the fuck is speeding up time?
I have the same thing. Even on weekends were I don't have too many plans I don't feel like I have enough free time to just kick back and play
It just happens as you get older, a single day becomes less and less of a percentage of time you've been alive. I'm 24 so I'm really hitting that time speed increase within the last few years, it fucking sucks.
>finish school at 5:30pm
What the fuck kind of school did you go to?
Seems like you need better time management:
>Get up 6:30.
>Quick breakfast (BCAAs, some carbs), pack my gear, lunch, etc.
>Get to the gym by 7:00.
>Lift until 8:20.
>Run a 1 mile trial (usually takes 8 minutes) until 8:30.
>Shower and walk to work for 9:00.
>Lunch at 1:00.
>Work until 4:30.
>Commute home, usually home by 5:15.
>Write, play instruments, record, etc, until 9ish.
>Cool down with video or TV for a couple hours.
>Go to sleep around 10:30-11:30.
>Exclusively shitpost from my phone during work hours.
>>finish school at 5:30pm
are you korean/japanese? the fuck?
t. single
>finish school at 5:30pm
Nigga, what?
Commuting home takes a while when you take public transit.
You have to place goals in your future, back in school you had deadlines like finishing your year, completing high school, moving on to university. Now that the time between meaningful goals is larger it just seems like things are going by quickly because you've lost track of time.
ur life is hot trash my man
did you get lost on your way to facebook
Wait a minute... I get in at 8, take lunch around 12 and leave at 5. I just got my first 'salaried' job halfway through last year.
I thought lunch didn't count toward my hours so I've been coming in before 9. Have I been fucking rused? There's this lady on my team who gets there before me and leaves after me, but i've stopped feeling bad about it.

Great guide on how to not fit games into your schedule. Also, why lie on the internet?

It's part of growing up. Now that you are acutely aware of how short your life is, things that you associate with time investment become daunting and feel like a waste of time. That's why you and I can shitpost on Sup Forums for hours on end without a care in the world, but willingly stave off watching an anime or something for weeks. It's the "I'll just do X for five minutes" effect.
I fuck roasties on the regular which is fine for me. I own my own house, I don't want to lose it to some thot.
It's pretty good desu.
I have a pretty cushy job. 7 hours work, half hour paid break, half hour unpaid, and since tasks usually take half an hour, we get to leave early usually.
>Exclusively shitpost from my phone during work hours
Do europeans really do this?
Video games were in that list though. Also, what's wrong with writing or making music even as an amateur? The very act of creating and improving is fun, not everyone has to be a world renowned artist.
I don't know. Time goes at a fucking crawl all throughout your school years, then you're finally free and a year feels like 3 months. I'm approaching my mid twenties and I still feel like a teenager.
A do a 6-day split.
Videogames are on my list.
I do write, songs, music, and a novel.
I don't skip dinner, I just forgot to put it in.
I'm not lying about any of that tbqhwyf, I've been doing it for a few years pretty much exactly like this... I'm working on my pedalboard and cello right now actually.
Why would you waste precious leisure time shitposting when there's video to be played.
What job, asshole?
Respiratory at a hospital. Mostly spend my days prepping MSI/ICU patients for transport to CT/MRI/PET/Interventional Radiology and delivering tanks to nursing units.
>finish work at 5:30
>boss still needs you to stay in for additional unpaid support
Oh. I was jealous of you for a moment. All clear now
It's a pretty good job. Pays good, you don't have to do much, and nurses love to party and fuck.
You're blowing your own horn faggot. Nobody cares that you're a "musician" and the fact that you have to flaunt is insecure and pathetic.
Seems fucking slow enough when im at work
>work from home
>wake up at 7
>shower
>log in work laptop at 730
>when there's nothing to do boot up a simple, fun game
>end shift at 330pm
>cry/sleep/lift (between 30 mins to an hour) til dinner
>think about playing a game until I drink myself to sleep at midnight
>repeat til saturday
>no gf
Not him but you sound insanely bitter and resentful.
Who hurt you user?
I wasn't the original poster, I was only responding to what you said. That guy was just laying out his daily schedule because the OP asked about time management. You're the one getting your panties in a bunch because he mentioned music as part of his schedule, just mentioning it isnt "flaunting". To me it seems like the insecure one here is you.
you sound like an envious miserable tool.
Theyre both cunts honestly
>tfw work for only 3 hours a day, 4 days a week
>still feel fucking exhausted mentally and physically
i should just apply for neetbux while i'm at it, my life is basically over if i can't even stomach 12 hours of work
Are you some sort of failed musician?
>finish work around 8:30-9
>salaried so no overtime
>catch bus or bike back
>too exhuasted to play, no time before I have to be back at 6am
You probably have a lot more responsibilities now that eat up small chunks of your time. Things like having to buy groceries, make food, do your laundry, etc. This is all stuff your parents did for you while you were in school, so you really could just kick back and not focus on anything but games. But now, you've always got some errand or task nagging at the back of your mind so eventually doing something that has a soft time commitment like playing a game or watching an anime seem like it will eat up too much of your time. So you put it off for days and weeks, even on days off you find it the end of the day already and all you've done is consume small portions of media that you can justify because it's ONLY a small fraction of time. 5 minute youtube videos, endlessly scrolling sites with bottomless but empty content, etc. Before you know it, you've been doing it all day, you've accomplished nothing and it's time for bed.
And then if you do the logical thing and make a schedule to play your game, it feels like a chore. You're forcing yourself to have fun.
I don't know what to do either.
Wow, lol, this is pathetic.
Embrace the real man routine.
>Get up at 7:55, hung over, take a shower. Skip breakfast. Get into the shower with a beer (a little hair from the dog will wake you up). Get dried off and put on your anti-fungal cream because you got ringworm from a one-night stand that just won't go away. Feed your cat.
>Leave for work on your bicycle, spark your cigarette before you leave so that you can smoke it on the ride. You're leaving at 8:07 so you're already going to be 15 minutes late anyway. Nobody cares what you do at work because you work IT and the fact that you showered and smell nice and mentholy from the smoke makes you better than 99% of the other people working that gig because you actually wear deodorant
>Work for 4 hours still in a fog. Drink 40 ounces of coffee. Take a smoke break around 10:15.
>Go to McDonalds for lunch. Use the McApp so that you can maximize your savings that you can spend on beer later
>Take an hour and a half long lunch break. Spend the last half hour lying in the sun hating yourself
>Finish up the rest of your day by taking a half hour long bathroom break at some point and another half hour long smoke break
>Bike home and stop by the grocery store on the way to get more anti-fungal cream and some dinner
>Cook dinner while shitposting on Sup Forums for an hour
>feed your cat and empty its litterbox and then take another shower to try to get rid of the ringworm.
>Leave for the bar sometime past 8 and chain smoke and drink until it closes at midnight or one AM depending on the day
>Go home and and pass out
I don't even know how people have time for videogames anymore.
10/10 post. Strangely accurate.
This sounds like a really nice routine to be honest desu
This is some good shit
I too am a shitty alcoholic bum with a cat.
Wish I could land a halfway decent job though. In my mid twenties still working restaurant tier jobs like a fucking teenager. Having no direction sucks.
You're fucked. I at least got my degree before becoming a shitty cat owning alcoholic. RIP your dreams and ambitions.
You're the "modern man" meme
Lmaoing at your meaningless life
To be honest, I used to drink daily, kill coffee and energy drinks and smoke as part of my routine. I stopped because the drinking killed my sleep and all of it drained my cash.
>Finish school at 5:30 pm
Guess you fucked up.
Most finish at 3PM, I would plan my vidya on the bus home, then more so on the walk FROM where the bus dropped me off, be home by about 4-4:30 cause I don't walk slow. Plenty of time for vidya.
Now: Work 3-11PM
Wake up and play a little but can't really get hard into anything cause I wakeup at like 10 and feel like shit knowing I have to work at 3. When I get home it's too late to play shit that's more than 'a few rounds'.
Sometimes I'll sleep right away when I get home so I get up at like 6-8AM and have all day for games, but no one fucking games during the day so it's single player or bust.
I have a pretty good life, so I got nothing to be sad about. I'm pretty lucky honestly. I hope you're happy too.
>I stopped because the drinking killed my sleep and all of it drained my cash.
What do you need to be awake for and what are you spending your cash on? I hope you're not getting tattoos.
>Not being thrifty enough with food to drink socially every night and still have enough spending money left over to put away for vacations while you maximize you're 401K contributions so that you can retire at 70 even though I'll probably die before 63
Also;
>Energy Drinks
Get necked kiddo.
I'm paying off my house in the next couple years. Sleep is a good thing for me. Getting off the wagon just improved the quality of my life in general, but to each his own.
>RIP your dreams and ambitions.
If I had those I wouldn't have wasted so much time doing fuck all. I'm probably an alcoholic precisely because I'm a soulless husk with no motivation or an ounce of drive for anything other than booze and vidya.
>15 hours shifts
Where the fuck do you work? A victorian era coal mine?
>finished school at 5:30
nigga my school started at 7:20 and got out at 2:40 what kind of military academy were you at
I think my last dream was to be an astronaut. Now I just want to die but I fear death so I just drink until I can sleep and then occupy myself with work during the waking hours. Vacations are p. cool, but it's usually just drinking with random weirdos.
I just rent because sleeping alone in a house by myself would scare the shit out of me.
fits high shool in germany. Starts at 8 and there a long pause after 2pm til the next lessons so you can go eat. So you might leave only after 5pm but you ain't sitting through 9 hours nonstop.
