Post your hectic schedules

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>sometimes, it's nice to have a busy schedule because it makes me feel like i have a purpose early on in life but at the same time, it's draining most, if not all, of my energy. i have virtually no free time with the schedule i have now. </p>

<p>wake up 6:20 am
7-2:15 school
2:15-3:15 in school research
3:15-4:00 newspaper/scholastic bowl/lit magazine, depending on which day
4-5 fitness center/shower afterwards
5:30-11 work
11:10 get home, do hw til 1 am</p>

<p>i do APUSH/AP euro reading on weekends so that saves me a lot of time during the week, even though i usually work 6 hours per day on weekends as well. as a result, i have no time to just sit down and relax because every hour of the day, i'm doing something that i feel must be done.</p>

<p>what's your schedule like?</p>

<p>O...M...F...G....</p>

<p>6 AM: Wake up
7 AM - 3 PM (at school)
3 PM - 4:30 PM (transport from school to home with elementary school as relay. Much wasted time; even though I do read on the bus; I can't make up for it all with all the distractions). Perhaps I should just wear earplugs and read Machiavelli though I'm next to asleep during this time. Oh yeah, active reading! active notetaking! I'm just so lazy.
4:30 PM - 10: 30 PM - at home, studying or doing various useless things.
10:3o PM: collapse on floor, sleepwalk to bed.</p>

<p>Yet I still frequently procrastinate and don't get all my work done. I don't really have any ECs so I have more than 6 hours to complete my HW and I take it all for granted, without fully appreciating the time. If I break it up, I might appreciate the time more. Maybe delegating 4:30 - 5: 30 PM to AP Physics C self-study (OMG, almost November and I still haven't started, though thankfully, my calculus textbook also covers some AP Physics C concepts).</p>

10

<p>AHAHA! I have AP Physics B self-study and I HAVEN'T STARTED!!</p>

<p>Sim, is your area school ICS or is it really Inglemoor? I have a couple of friends at ICS who live in Redmond.</p>

11

<p>Hmm... interesting... I haven't even purchased my textbook yet EGADS!! Plus I need to study for AIME and I still haven't started on AoPS.</p>

<p>Thankfully, there's still Thanksgiving and Winter Break.</p>

<p>Yes, I go to Inglemoor. </p>

<p>EDIT: sorry, read post too quickly.</p>

<p>Ah, I have this link for some commonly used physics b and c textbooks: </p>

<p>I don't know what Summer Stretch is. I went to UWEB SFS over the summer and met someone from ICS.</p>

14

<p>OK, i just googled it. Anyway, if you're interested in higher-level math, there's a program called SIMUW.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.math.washington.edu/%7Esimuw/ta_app/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.math.washington.edu/~simuw/ta_app/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Thanks for the link! =)</p>

<p>Dang it, I'm a Chinese male.</p>

<p>Ah yes, SIMUW. Thanks for the information. Heard of it but forgot a long time; should apply to it this year!</p>
