life is work
i already knew this, but i didn't know that it took up so much time.
over the week, you go to school for a very big part of the day, waking up early, and when you get home, you get to do homework, do things for your parents, do after school things like sport, etc., or just do whatever (video games, internet, etc.)
weekend, you do homework, or get to do whatever, and sometimes you do after school things.

it bugs me that you have to do so much work.. it's like school (7 hrs?), sports (1-2 hrs maybe), homework (depends on intelligence), and free time (depends on person)
that's at least nine hours out of the day i suppose, and that kinda bugs me..
then on weekends it changes often, like you could work for your parents all day, do whatever all day, usually you have homework to do, etc.

the thing that bugs me about this, if i haven't said it yet (i can't remember), is that in your free time, you don't often have free time. your usually doing other things. my teachers have said that you have plenty of time, but sometimes to me it seems like the only way to finish stuff is to do nothing fun, and work then entire time. and that would suck. that's about all i have on that.

note on moving: i found out that since my grandma technically owns this house, once my grandma dies, we're out >.> that makes me sad..

    ...WHY is your life ruled by your grandma?!?! Well, her owning the house would be a good reason...but you'd think that with all the stuff your parents buy you, they'd have enough money to at least get an apartment? (N.O., i just don't think they're spending thier money wisely...)
    i kinda want to hang out again...maybe with some other freinds this time, too?

    Well, if you actually get down a do your work, you have a lot of free time.
    Morning: av 30 min
    School: 7 to 2:50" ab 8 hours
    Homework: av, 1 hr
    Eat: av, 25 min: = 1/3 hr = 20 min
    Average = 30 + 20 + (8 * 60) + (1 * 60) =
    30+20+480+60+=590
    590 / 60 = 10 hrs
    wake: 6:30 - 9:30 = 15 hrs.
    15 - 10 = about 5 hours of free time. if that's wrong, i really dont care. but you do get a lot of free time, and i know you don't do sports, phillip. you do dance. dancing is not a sport. i feel so depressed....i really need some chocolate...

    time doesn't heal many wounds. but theres one thing that does.
    my favorite episode download place is back up after a long haitus, then a post that said he couldn't access the server! and now they're doing more than just inu eps, now they do witch hunter robin and marmalade boy stuff 100!

    Wow, Ara. Your friends are really critical of you and seem to find it necessary to contradict everything you say. No offence to those of them that read this, but that's my observation. Sorry, guys.

    It's hard to make free time, I definitely know that... I did add up the hours taken out of one's day once and it certainly doesn't leave a lot of room. Especially depending on the homework load, big projects, extra sleep, chores, etc.... the best strategy is do do all your homework with the first "free time" you get, or make plans early so you can plan around that rather than the less desirable things. Sometimes you just have to wait for things to slow down, or pace yourself so you have time to relax. It helps to try being erally organised, and for those it doesn't come natural to it's really hard, but you have to find something to motivate yourself.

    I'm going to stop talking, I know first hand everyone hears that crap a million times. =P But really. I wish you luck on trying to find time.

    I don't find free time often either... even when I'm on the net there's stuff to be done. Look up this for so-and-so, type up this for english class, finish images for side crap. And then there's friends... I have so many online that I don't get to just zone out and do nothing. There's always someone that's feeling neglected or lonely, or just suffered a breakup. Life is too complex for me to fully apprehend but it still bothers me that I may never understand all of it's mysteries... and that it ends too quickly for most.
