So today after another six hour shift at the ol' job, I'm pretty exhausted.
Do I get to relax for the rest of my Sunday however? Not even close. I suppose I ask for it, being a college student and having a part time job, I should try to get my homework done sooner or something, but it's definitely hard wanting to do homework after a busy day at work.
I guess this sounds more like something you would see on facebook, as I'm more complaining than talking about anything important, but I'm interested to see what you other guys and gals in the class think about having a job while going to college.
I know a couple friends over the years had full time jobs while taking a lot of credits, and I feel like I shouldn't even complain in comparison to them. However, I also noticed their overall ability to do well in college seemed to just drop; they could just not keep up. With my part-time job, sometimes it can be difficult to get homework done when you don't have those nice weekend days off to cram all the homework into (I miss that), but at the same time, it's definitely nice having a little extra change in my pocket.
How do you guys and gals feel about it? Do you have a part-time/full time job? Do you feel it affects your abilities to do well in school? Maybe I just need to balance my time better (something a procrastinator like me will probably never learn).
I am definitely a fan of dogs but kitties are cute too.
ReplyDeleteI'm a person who needs to be busy to be happy. For my first two years of college, I had 2 jobs and went full time. I loved being able to build up a savings account while in school.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a job now and it's frustrating. Especially after all the applications I've turned in and how many follow-up calls and emails I've done.
