Frustration in the school and workplace for college working students
Work, School, and NO social life
This week I decided to take a day off from work.
I am usually a model
employee and hardly take days off, but decided to have a social life for a day. I should have accepted the fact that it is
NOT POSSIBLE to have any type of social life while working and going to
college. All working college students
need to understand that their lives have a predictable order every day that may
be similar to mine.
6:00 A.M.- Try to find the strength to wake up
7:00 A.M.- Drive across town to school
8:00 A.M.- Attend class all day and have no time to eat
2:15 P.M.- Speed to work
10:30 P.M.-Drive home from work
10:45P.M. -12:30A.M. - Complete homework and study for
school
A schedule like this leaves no time to socialize with friends or family so I simply had to take a day off. I spent the day arguing with a friend that
bailed on me and getting in verbal fights with my sister. Instead of enjoying myself and going out, I
spent most of the day catching up on homework and dishes. The entire time that I was “enjoying” my day
off, I was thinking about all of the money I was losing by not working that day.
Next time I will know to simply understand that I can relax
when I’m dead.
