My children are in school full-time and the oldest is responsible enough to watch the younger for a few hours when I'm gone when they get home, so that does take one worry off of my mind. However, balancing classes with this full-time work schedule will mean a lot of late nights studying and writing papers.
A usually start my day before six, getting the kids ready for school and myself ready for work. Including my commute, I work about ten hours daily and return home around six pm.
Then I do my best to leave my work at the door and spend some time just being with my kids; hearing about their day, what they're learning in school, what the latest trends in their social circles are, and all of the details that I want to know about their lives. We cook and eat dinner together, but I'm afraid that that luxury is going to be cut short soon to allow me more study time. More evenings, the kids are going to be responsible for putting together a ready-made meal, or thawing a frozen entree, or making sandwiches, or (occasionally) ordering a pizza!
Once home from work and having heard about the days of my children, we'll have dinner together, even though I might have to spend less of dinner talking or cooking and more of it reading and proofreading. I won't sacrifice helping my kids with their own schoolwork when they need it for my own studies; however, they're getting to the ages where most parents aren't able to help conjugate verbs in the pluperfect past tense or extract whole numbers from complex calculus formulas anyway. I'll happily help with proofreading for grammar, for subject matter, and help them come up with creative ideas and methods of presentation, but my capacities in their math and science classes are definitely inferior to even their own.
Bedtime comes around 9 or 10, and for a few hours, I'll study alone and accomplish the bulk of my classwork during this time....
The pro-life sections were deeply disappointed as they had considered Casey as an ideal opportunity for the Court to overturn Roe. Legal Reaction to the Case The legal fraternity realized that the U.S. Supreme Court was loathe to re-visit its previous decisions or to endanger stability. Some of the justices had decided that even if the Roe holding had been wrong, they would rather amend parts of it instead of overturning
It has been eight years since I took college classes but I am more mature now and I know what I want and where I am going academically and intellectually. Learning is a positive thing, and of course all intelligent and socially conscious adults are learning every day; but when the learning is concentrated through classroom lectures, research, independent study and test-taking, it is almost overwhelming for those who
waiting room some years ago I happened upon a National Geographic magazine with an article on some Caribbean island, but what most interested me were the fantastic photos of the beautiful island. Inside this magazine were images of pristine blue waters, beautiful beaches and jungles, and people that seemed to be living in paradise. Perhaps this is what first sparked my interest in photography and my dream of traveling
