That's ages! :'D Okay, so it's just that I'm super-busy here and it
feels like ages, but...
I've been offered lots of jobs here, but taking them without a degree is risky. If they go well it's fine, but if they go badly and I get fired quickly, I could wind up without a degree and without enough experience to find another job. It's better for me to go home and graduate first. Though it's encouraging that I've been offered jobs here already.

It probably means I'll have no trouble staying here once I graduate.
