This weeks post I wanted to dig into the balance of school-work-life. As college students, we all go through similar problems and a big one is knowing how to balance going to school, working and having a social life. Just getting into college, I don’t have the best understanding of how to manage all of it. This topic is something that I am sure almost everyone has related to and I thought it needed to be discussed.
Right now I’m at school Monday-Thursday in class, that doesn’t count the time at home studying or doing homework. I also work anywhere from 20-25 hours a week while still trying to see my friends and my boyfriend when I can. It’s not easy balancing it all and with exams coming up, I realize I can’t. I don’t know what works best for me, or what I need to change, or how to handle everything and it’s really stressing me out.
The only thing I know I need to do is to cut back my hours to focus more time studying. It’s hard trying to see friends when I can too. How am I supposed to do it all? Am I just not supposed to hang out with my friends and my boyfriend? That would be really hard to do too.
The overall idea I wanted to share with this post is that we are all struggling. We all are trying our best to do what we can, and when we can. Being in college while juggling adult duties isn’t easy and not everyone can do it. If your can, you should be proud of yourself because we really are all trying our best.
