I enjoy physical stuff mainly like kickboxing and MMA (mixed martial arts). This makes me forget about how boring life actually is and gives me a goal to focus on. Exercise is my escapism. Not sure about accounting to be honest, but thanks for the suggestion.

2. Forget motivation, switch your school related functions to automatic and go out and do something interesting. I mean, switch it over the self-discipline, by studying for fifteen minutes a day and working your way upto half an hour or wahtever. Every day. Do it whether you're motivated or not.
That is interesting. It's probably because 4 weeks is quite a long break and so people get used to being at home again. Plus when they go back they know what's in store for them, so it's not exciting anymore.

I guess one problem I have is just being around so many people that are different to me. A lot of people are at that rebelling stage and just want to have a laugh. And alcohol is like a catalyst for their immature behaviour. Sometimes I feel like people are judging me negatively just because I don't want to act that way.
