The good life

Nov 16, 2006 02:40

So you know what's funny? College! You get all excited to leave high school and start your life in college that you almost forget about the money. Ok now it's all fun and games if your parents are helping you out with the money part, it kind of feels unreal that you're even paying until it starts adding up. Anyway, I'm not getting any help and here's my sob story:

I work 40 hours every week so that I can pay for college.
I go to class every monday through thursday before 2pm.
I go to work from 2:30 until 11pm every weeknight.
On fridays, during the day, I'm usually doing house work or babysitting or something. AND doing my homework.
When homework can't wait until friday (90% of the time) to get done, I'm stuck staying up until 2:30 or 3 in the morning typing papers for an english teacher from india that doesn't know what a metaphor is.
I don't skip classes to do homework because basically, that's not a habit I want to start and if I do it once, I'll be hooked.

So basically, I'm stuck choosing whether I should sleep or pass my classes...you would think this would be easier...but it's not gonna be for a long time. There's more to this story but it's nobody's business but my own.

The moral of the story is not to clean an 8 hour section of a school in 4 hours because it drains you like you wouldn't believe.
