Sine qua non
Sine qua non. Translated from Latin it means “without which, not.” In colloquial English it means deal breaker. In my recent job search, my own sine qua non, was that I would be able to go to school while working. I have succeeded in this quest, and am now working and going to school full time again. Granted with the inclusion of my Sine qua non, my job search took longer, but in the end, I got what I was looking for, and am happier for it. The only downside, from working full time and going to school is that I am fucking tired a lot of the time. Granted, this may be because of the fact that I have not gotten used to the new sleep schedule. I get between five and seven hours of sleep in an afternoon/evening. However, I have only had this schedule for a week or so, so in a few more weeks, everything should be golden. Also, I am retaining what I learn in class, so that is good. I should be updating this more often, as I have the feeling that I will have a lot more to write about. In g
