Hello everyone and I hope you are all having a great weekend! This week I had to work :(. I'm sure more than one of you have to work and go to school. It is definately nice to have a cash flow, but sometimes work just gets in the way of either homework or just having fun. The best way to deal with it is to stay organized and have a balance. Balancing out work and play will definately make the colege experience a lot more fun!
I am a Florida state certifed referee and referee all over Tampa. The money is great but because I have to travel so much, it tends to take alot out of my day. I constatnly have to deal with complaining coaches because apparently, the referee is always wrong. It is also very easy to get lost finding fields if you do not have good directions and punctuality is very important. So if you have a game to referee at eight in the morning, you are expected to be there at 7:30, and it sucks! On the bright side of things, I get to be around my favorite sport! When you are doing something you love, it usually doesn't feel like work.
I manage to work and go to school through time management. I try to make sure that I get all of my work done accordingly so that I will have time to work and still turn in assignments on time. Often times, keeping yourself busy helps you stay on task. Finding a job these days is difficult, so consider your selves lucky! Have a great Thanksgiving and until next week, GO BULLS!
I agree - it can be stressful being a full time college student and also working. Now I have a seasonal job and have been waiting until the last minute do to all my school stuff and have even gotten into a bad habit of skipping my lectures. I’m just glad the break is almost here! At least you enjoy your job; it must make the day go by quicker!
ReplyDeleteI also agree that working and studying is very time consuming. And the advice of managing your time wisely is a great idea because all of your priorities will be taking care of.
