Hey guys, so recently I've had a few messages across various websites asking
me if I've dropped out of university
Well, kind of. I've taken a year out.
Why?
Well,
[Crying Noises]
But how did I arrived at that mental breakdown?
Basically, I've spent the last year feeling constantly down because I've been having
this permanent existential crisis
Why are you sad, Dan?
Because I don't know what I'm doing with my life.
Well, you're at university, aren't you,
so you don't think about that for another two years
But what then, Phil?
What then?
And no matter what was happening in my life I couldn't stop
dwelling in this spiraling vortex of unfulfilled dreams
hey Dan, there's new episode of Pokémon out
Pikachu doesn't understand my pain.
I wish I could just die.
and die.
I essentially thought that if I spent the next two years of my life
at university I would be giving up on
all of my dreams
and I would be condemning myself to a life of boringness
I can't bothered to live
but then I found out that if I wanted to stay in university
I had to resit one of my exams in August
So having spent the entire summer doing equal amounts of eating
gaming, internetting, being a prat, and nothing
I had again left all of my
revision to literally the night before the retake
and there I was, the moment
this had all been building up to
Ok, right. it's 11pm, exam in 10 hours,
time to do some cramming
[laughing]
[heavier laughing]
whilst contractual obligations... [muttering]
I'm having so much fun
Come on, Dan, revise.
Okay, per paragraph 26 from Rebecca... [muttering]
[hearty laughing] [muttering continues]
Ok, right, reasonable reliance, reliance by the customer is relevant to-
[Phil's exaggerated laughter]
The mortgage, it will probably rely on the evaluation knowing both...
[Continued Laughter]
... the purchaser has, in effect, paid for the evaluation is under a duty...
[becoming more frantic] ... to exercise reasonable skill and care...
[Intense, exaggerated laughter] [Frantic legal reading continues]
I'm not doing it.
What?
I'm not gonna do it.
What?
No one can make me do it.
Dan, what you on about?
That's it. I'm not going.
Dan,
I've had enough! I don't care anymore
What aren't you going to?
My exam.
What do you mean?
I'm not going.
Dan, you have to go to your resit.
Not if I don't give a fucking fuck anymore, I don't.
[Crying]
Well, hows about I get you some chocolate.
Okay.
So, I finally realized that there's no point being constantly depressed about
your life unless you actually try to do what you want.
So here I am.
I've taken a year out from uni and next august I can take the exam
again and decide whether I want to go back to uni or not
I mean my mum totally agreed, it's better to have a midlife crisis when you're
still a teenager then when you're 50 and it's too late
So this is the year. From now on, I can start making good videos more often.
I can think about what i want to do with my life, I can take up piano
lessons again and, yeah, it's going to be great.
I wonder why my neck hurts so much.
[Singing] 'Cause I'm the foolish one that you anointed with your heart
Yeah, that's right, now who's getting tea bagged?
24, 25
You know, I'm sure I forgot something.
Oh, fu-
