my mind is currently under maintenance..

When I was at university I found it difficult to do any work at home because of all the distractions. To ensure that I had a good length of free time at home I would make sure I did all my work at university before leaving. This meant that after lectures, or in between lectures, I wouldn't socialise, but would instead lock myself in the library until I had completed at least some of all my assignments at which point I could go home and relax. Iam not sure if that would work with you but having an area specially for school work, and making sure that the work is done before doing something else could help spread out your days and times. Try and not too it while distracted by TV either otherwise it will just take longer If you can manage to schedule things successfully I imagine that you will be able to find a fair amount of time on weekends for your friends, even if you don't see them much during the weekdays. Good luck juggling everything, and remember that it won't last forever :) Dranz
