A Single Parent's Experience on Managing Time

In the beginning I was excited about being able to attend college. In my first 2 weeks I was overwhelmed with homework. I never expected to have so much homework in one night. It was extremely hard to fit every course with my busy schedule. I balance a full-time job, I take care of 5 animals plus my pregnant daughter who has been 2 jobs in itself. Then I had the opportunity to take a learning skill class, where I was able to learn how to manage my time. When I started to apply the skills I learned, I was able to plan a daily schedule. Even now with my extremely busy schedule I'm able to get my homework done on time. If these skill were available when I was in High School I definitely would have passed with better grades. I now have a schedule on what homework needs more attention. I also use the sills I learn to study better for all my classes.
