I am concerned that you are trying to have everything all at once, full time job (and the fun tickets that go with it) full time school and kendo plus whatever else you have on the stove. The race does not always go to the swiftest, the smartest, the best looking etc. All in all you will find that it is persistance that pays of in the end, which can be a long, long time from now. If your goals are unreasonable it assures failure. Take it a little bit at a time and don't forget to enjoy life.
It is possible for one person to eat an entire elephant. Just not in one meal.

True, life is not a race.

Most of my friends called me crazy when I announced that I'll be attending a junior college instead of an university at the end of high school. Now my friends barely have any free time with work and school. I have school, a job, a girlfriend, church job, kendo, and free time. There is no rush for me to go off to a university to rush my education, I want to enjoy life.

The sad thing is, my friends are taking the same GE classes as I am. I guess the university pushes you more?
