Ho-Oh September 22nd, 2011 5:35 AM

SINCE EDUCATION WAS MENTIONED... I go to uni on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Monday: 3:30 - 6:15pm (usually 6pm)
Tuesday: 11:30-2:00pm & 4:30 - 7:15pm (usually around 7pm)
Wednesday: 9:30 - 12:15pm (usually around 12pm)

As for general sleeping, I usually sleep around 1am and I'm forced to wake up around 8am. It's rare when I sleep before 1, or if I wake up later than around 10:00 on a day that isn't the weekend. :x

Oryx September 22nd, 2011 5:38 AM

My schedule is great but I still whine about it. xD Only 3 classes on Monday and Wednesday from 9:35-11:30 and then from 1:55-2:45, and only 2 on Thursdays, 12:30-1:45 and 5:00-6:15, then Friday has the same as MW plus a Physics lab every other week at 4 PM. But Tuesdays I'm going from 12:30 until 6 with like no breaks, lol. :(

Legendary Silke September 22nd, 2011 5:55 AM

I think I have it really bad.

Mondays, wake up at 6:00 AM, go to school by 7:00 AM, come home at 3:30 PM.
Tuesdays, wake up at 6:15 AM, come home at 4:00 PM.
Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, wake up at 5:45 AM, be at school by 6:30 AM, and come back home at either 3:30 PM, 4:00 PM or 1:50 PM.
Saturdays? Wake up at 6:30 AM, get to school at 7:10 AM or earlier, and the school's out at... 3:00 PM.

I have almost half of my day in school.

At least I only have 1.5 more months before I graduate from my school.

...I would've given up and cried in the corner long ago if that was me.

If Australia introduced school on Saturday, I'm pretty sure the youth would burn down Parliament House.

D: Oh god. How you can keep up with that is beyond me.

Shining Raichu September 22nd, 2011 6:14 AM

I don't school and my work schedule is really erratic lol - but the one constant is that no matter what, I go to bed around 2AM and get up between 8 and 9AM. If I sleep more than that I feel like crap.

Speaking of erratic schedules... urghh working 12-9 for the next two days.

Thats a hectic schedule. At least you graduate in 1.5 months although are you going to college Twiggy?

I just hope when I eventually get a job that my work schedule isnt too ridiculous.

Sweet Candace September 22nd, 2011 6:25 AM

I have 4 50-minute classes, and two 1 hour, 10 minute "break periods". The break periods are used for students to eat lunch and what not, or visit with their adviser(s).

I will be going to college. But there will be a gap year... or something. I really need that break.

Besides, 1.5 more months, and it's all over. :)

I think I know which school NOT to send my kids to now.

I highly recommend that. I'm on my 'gap year' right now, which has turned into an 'indefinite gap period' but it's definitely the best thing I ever did. College just drains the life out of you if you jump straight into it.

Only if you let it. If you schedule smart, you'll be alright. But it is an incredible workload and it will get to you if you aren't careful.

Meganium September 22nd, 2011 6:53 AM

I go to school in the afternoon, which is from 1:00 to sometimes 5 or 5:30. I used to go to school in the early mornings from 8:30 and get off at 4. I hated that schedule so much. 1:00 - 5:30 is the best schedule ever. :D I get to sleep late and sleep in every day!

Sweet Candace September 22nd, 2011 6:58 AM

I carefully planned my college schedule this year to have off on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Since I'm not working right now, those two days off really help me rest. And when I get a job, it'll give me something to do on those days.

donavannj September 22nd, 2011 7:11 AM

I go to school from 12-4/12-10 on Mondays and from 12-7/3-7 on Fridays depending on the week, and I have the rest of the week off to work any job I get.

It didn't really have much to do with my schedule, it was just a tedious, monotonous experience that I know I'll have to get out of the way some day - but going into it fresh from 13 years of school... it just felt like continuing the rut. But I guess everyone's experience is different lol

Mew~ September 22nd, 2011 7:42 AM

I have school Monday to Friday. I manage to go bed at around 11pm everyday, wake up around 7:00am for school. I like to sleep in on weekends.

alisaie September 22nd, 2011 8:17 AM

I have class Wednesdays Nights, Thursday nights, and Friday. Though this week I don't think I have my first class on Friday so I while I'm not going to sleep in, I don't have to get to school until around 1:30pm. |D;

I wish I could say the same thing. My gap year turned into an indefinite gap period too, and it's making me miserable. I'd give anything to be in college right now.

Esper September 22nd, 2011 8:46 AM

School is something you have to stick with or you'll be fighting an uphill battle to get back into the pace of it. Everyone I know who's taken a gap year or something similar hasn't been able to seriously get going again.

DarkAlucard September 22nd, 2011 8:48 AM

My work schedule is tough: Monday to Friday I get up at 4:45 am, to get ready and be in the company at 6 am (my time of entry). We regularly go out at 3:30 pm, but if there is much work, I stay on occasions until 5:00 pm or 6:00 pm. And once a month, I have to go on Saturdays from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm.
Coming out of working Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, I go to my Master's classes.

Having overcome two gap years and getting into my favorite major (architecture), I wouldn't be so sure of it. It all comes down to determination-whether you want to keep going or not.

Also, deja vu.

I wish my friends had the same motivation. I hate seeing them struggle.

Livewire September 22nd, 2011 9:07 AM

I think if Post-Secondary options were more popular/easily obtainable, this wouldn't be so much of a big deal. The adjustment between college and High school, that is.

Shiny Celebi September 22nd, 2011 9:55 AM

If college wasnt so difficult, I might have gone.
