Final year itch

I'm in my final year at university, am only currently in lectures 1 day a week and have tonnes of essays and a dissertation to complete this term. I am miserable at uni right now, stressed, sick of being skint ect. I can't get a job because I have a lot of work to do this term although I do volunteer once a week for childline which helps a bit. I guess I am just bored to tears of essays and having no money, and just wish the summer would hurry up so I can get on with the rest of my life and do something a bit more interesting. Does anyone else feel like this?

    I have finished university but know how you feel - after a few years of the same thing it can get draining and you just want it to be over with.

    But you should try and put these thoughts aside and work on the essays etc. and get the best possible marks you can because the whole country is in a bad way and it will help you in the future.

    So yes it can be disillusioning but try and think of the benefits you will get from completing it to a good standard.

    Do you do any sports? or try and find some activity to get rid of some stress?
