- That sounds nice, haveing a girlfriend might make it easier.. It is nice
- to hear that some people get a life after all. I spoiled my studies pretty
- bad for one and a half year, maybe it wont get better by quitting IRC. One
- thing I do know, I sure get more things done.
- So come on people! Show them that you can do it! Quit IRC. Tomorrow might
- be too late. Start doing something usefull.. learn something, program read
- books or whatever.. just done spend all nights on IRC chatting.. Conversations
- in reallife are much more fun.
- It has soon been a week for me without IRC. Right now I am wondering if I can
- make one more. I hope so..
