Yo SP fam, you probably didn't recognize it but lately I haven't had the time to lurk around here because life was a bit weird to me in the last months.

In april I got thrown out of uni because I missed out on some exam date last december and got stuff mixed up somehow So all I could do was applying for an apprenticeship cause I need some kind of degree to get a decent job. Luckily a cool company took me and I'm about to start working there in two weeks. I'm gonna program websites with PHP, SQL and all that stuff.

Maybe I should've taken this step earlier, I'm 25 now and it's about time I earn my own money. Good thing is, I can buy more records and equipment Downside is that I won't have any holidays ever again and I have to plan my vacations carefully in advance. Otherwise it's all good, I'll spend my last free weeks with a trip to Prague and my home region in northern Germany and I just returned from a awesome festival where I saw DJ Shadow and Four Tet.

Now I'm about to read through all the stuff I missed out on and check if there's a battle running in the Arena ;D Peace guys, I love this forum too much to ever truly leave.

hopefully you'll have some time to make beats. i graduated school and got a job right after as an animator, 40 hours a week, come home and all i can do is play video games cause it doesnt take a brain to do that. you might have to take a vacation just to produce tracks. welcome to the world of "not enought time to do shit". Have fun

good to see u where able to find a path man...

and yes work will cut into your beat making time... but u can still have fun

seeing four tet live is on my list of things to do beofre i die!

... lol ... I`m expecting the same letter from my university soon...

Cool to see ya back, and gainful employment has many benefits. See ya in the arena.

+1

Changed my address though so it'll never make it to me

@wax and cartesia:
Any plans how you're gonna continue after uni? I guess the hardest thing about studying is to force yourself to sit down and learn regularly.
It was the second try for me and I only didn't make it cause I thought we had three tries for each exam when it really were two and I didn't apply for an extra try It was very time consuming cause we had like 8 or 9 different classes with an exam for each one at the end of the semester and we had to do some kind of homework for most of them on a weekly basis. That sucked a lot but at least I learned some Java and C programming.
