I was thinking today. Why are we all in such a hurry? Why is it bad if take 5 years to enjoy college and get the most out of it, instead of 4? Why is it such a terrible thing if we take time off? Why are people looked down upon for having children while in school? Sometimes, I think we are too judgmental. One thing that is right for someone may not be the best way for someone else. Going to school part time is still going to school and working toward a degree. And when you have that degree, no matter how long it took, you'll still have the same degree as someone else that did it in less or more amount of time. Can't we enjoy life when we are young? Why are we all stressing? Would it be easier to take just a few classes at a time and enjoy our young age? I know for some people this is not financially realistic, and that's ok too. I wish we could slow down and enjoy being 19, 20, 21 or 25. I know each generation thinks that that have it worse than the other ones, but I think my generation is too stressed. I think we all need more sleep.
