Balancing academics with other life commitments .
Hello everyone your welcome to my blog today its your favourite girl
Academics in a university setting can be really stressful and comes so much pressure to meet up with expectations from parents and personal pressure. There are a lot of activities that go on in the university walls and it varies from lectures to practicals to exams and extra curricular activities. And with all the pressure that comes with this and financial problems grow among students as there are so many text books to buy and practicals to pay for and so many other small bills all around and then students who depends only on their parents can barely survive .
This brings us to the prompt for this week which is ( BALANCING ACADEMICS WITH OTHER LIFE COMMITMENT) it is not easy to balance out academics and other life's commitment. While I’m no longer in school but there were a few commitment that I heard while in school. While in school I was into hair styling and baking I used this skills to aid myself financially in school and it was not easy balancing it all together, with lectures , reading and preparation for examinations all put together I was always stressed down to the core.
And all I full time commitment I made when in school was to be active in church activities and I did that for 3 years as the drama cordinator and 1 year as the acdemic director. One that took most of my time and energy is been a drama coordinator my schedule revolved around lectures from 8 to 4 and on wednesday and Thursdays mid week service and leadership meeting and drama rehearsals on the weekend and Sunday ministrations , you can imagine a very busy week indeed , some times I’m too tired to read or even take care of myself. I do my reading by 3am in the morning and do my laundry on saturated night so I can meet up with my schedule during the week.
And the cycle goes on but at the end I’m glad I made it through and came out strong , most times it is very hard to balance academics and life commitment but adequate planning can help you achieve all and stand strong.
