I just wish.....(Management Issues)
A management problem I am currently facing is managing all the work that I have to do. Not only am I a full time student, but I also am a Freshman Seminar Leader and on top of that I volunteer full time on the weekends and I also have an internship...you may think it ends here...buttt...I also have to do chores at home as well as help my mom with work around the house. My life seems really busy and it gets overwhelming for myself but sometimes I wonder if I had the free time I would just bum around. But I do feel that I don't get to hang out with my friends as much, especially because I am not allowed to stay out late in the night so I feel as if a commuter college isn't my thing. Even though I enjoy Baruch, I wish I had the chance to dorm so I could make my own schedule and do things that I wanted to..when I wanted to. Since I not only have to jumble the things I have to do..I also have to jumble things my parents want me to do...it is really hard...and sometimes really stressful....I wish sometimes that they would just understand...that I am just a kid and college doesn't come over and over again in your life- its a one time thing and its the only time we can actually enjoy ourselves and live the life we want to...before that working all day and not really having a life comes along...so you have any suggestions or comments...feel free to write anything you wish to say or share!

It is funny to see how many students in our class actually complain not having enough time. I think that you are really busy due to fact that you are a full time student, having a club to manage and also volunteer full time. I, on the other hand, also having the same difficulties as you do. I am personally a full time student, working part time in a clinic, currently having six classes this semester. And I am also an assistant coordinator for the Baruch Vita. I really think that I don't have much time for social life. But one thing that I am better than you is my parent don't care about me getting home late. Therefore, sometimes i will gives up some of my sleep to meet my friends during night. Good luck to all your classes and hope that your work load will decrease as the semester go on!
hey, Sonali, I can imagine what you are going through. Some parents in some culture does not allow there kids to go out and have fun after a certain period of time becuase they think that if they themselves as a parents allow them to do so their kids get spoiled. And parents feel like their chidren will stop respecting them. I,myself, feel like the same problem with me. My parents does not allow me to stay out late night. From my point of view I think what you should be doing is that talk to your parents and tell them that you want to go out sometimes and the opportunity of life and time which you have with your friends is not going to come back again. Life does not give chances again and again.
