Stress, Stress, Stress!
My stress score was 13 out of 24. I am not surprised by the score and I don't feel too worried about it. What stresses me out is having lots of homework. The thing is, it's not just the homework, it's how much time I have to do it. Since we spend most of our day at school (including after school practices), we barely get enough time to do our homework and get enough sleep. Since I help with after school practices, I would sometimes get home at about 6:45. I don't want to start on homework because I haven't eaten so that takes about 5-15 minutes. On Mondays I get home around 7:15 because of dance so I have about 1.5 hours to shower and get at least 8-9 hours of sleep. In order to have enough time to do homework, I try to finish other classes' homework in other classes or I start on homework for classes that are in the morning, then if I don't have time at night to do the rest, I finish the classes that are later in the day, during lunch.

We have the exact same stress level! I personally do the same thing with my homework. I get out of work at 8 sometimes even 9 and don't really have sufficient time to do all of my homework and study. Therefore I take well advantage of enhancement.
ReplyDeleteI understand! I have that problem since I'm in volleyball. I do the same thing with my homework also. I always try to go in the order of my classes that way if I need to do other work for the classes after lunch, I can work on it in Enhancement and lunch if I need to. It'll be worth it afterwards though so just keep that in mind!
ReplyDeleteDoing work in the mornings or other times at school is very smart because you know you will have that time everyday, but you don't know for sure that you will be free at night.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you that we don't have enough time to do extra activities, homework, and still get enough sleep. With my schedule, in order to do all my homework I usually only get 5-7 hours of sleep. I also do my homework at lunch sometimes because I was too tired to do it the night before.
ReplyDeleteOur time management has been failing drastically ever since we got into high school. Since we participate in many extra-curricular activities, we haven't had much time to finish assignments and to get a good night's rest. What I have to say is that it will get better. Just try to focus and find other ways to do your work, such as when you are waiting for your car after practices or doing them in the car wherever you are going.
