You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

My first year of universityI ended up dropping out and doing sod all with my time while still collecting a student allowance. My flatmate Roger and I developed a routine where he'd wake me up after his girlfriend went to work, roll us up a spliff, then crack out the N64.
There is a point during any stretch of unemployment when you take a step back and wonder if things have gone too far, if you've pushed the art of doing nothing to it's logical extreme with no hope for redemption. For me, that moment was when I beat Roger at 1080 Snowboarding using only my feet to work the controller.
To be fair, he was using his feet too.
