Part-timer

I feel like life is moving at such an incredible speed that there is no way I'll catch it. I work part time in slc, schedule 9am to 230pm Monday thur Friday, I come to school at night Monday thur Thursday. I've been going to school now for 3 semesters this one being my 4th and I am still a freshmen! I have come a long way to just get to a level playing ground with other college students. My problem is that I can't afford to do anything full time. I need to work to pay for school and by doing so I can't be a full time student. I feel that I'm running at the speed of a turtle for lack of a better word. Our lives are so busy it feels like we are all part-timers, we have our hands in so many things at onces its hard to organize and decide on our priorities. I'm affraid that before I know it I'll be 5 years down the road and just be graduating. I don't want this to be the case but it could be with all the part time things in my life.

  1. Joey, I know exactly how you feel. I'm working and going to school also. I truly feel like i'll be going to school for a long time too, but what helps me a little bit is that I can have something to hope for. You see, I hate my current job, so knowing that some day in the looooooong future I won't have to work there anymore helps me make it through everyday.
    I think that our sacrifices someday will pay off.
    Don't give up!
