It seems like the further into each semester we go the more the stress doubles. Between my class schedule and then helping to keep up with my kids class schedules there is less time for anything except homework. The dark circles are evident under each of my eyes and my hair is turning gray once again. It would help if some instructors would put realistic assignments out there for students. It seems that most forget that generally students take more than one class and most take a full schedule so having just one instructor that has a heavy load can really put a student behind in most of their subjects. This semester I happen to have two instructors that give more than their far share of the study load. After you add in a few children it makes it ore than a little extra burden for the non-tradition student that is trying to make a better life for her family.
I know taking the time to write this post is time taken away from other homework, but I do need a break once in a while and I really need just to get his out of my system. Please don't fret for I don't plan on making my blog a place to come and vent, today it is just necessary. I have a ton of homework to get done two test to study for and a speech to write, however everything for me has to stop for a few hours because of my daughter's tennis tournament. It gets even harder to keep balance when you don't want to take away from the kids just to try to make things better for them.
