There is not enough time
My life as a student can be hectic trying to balance sports clubs and homework in a small amount of time. I can push my self to extremes some times because of my schedule
My teacher Mrs. Quattlebaum can also have trouble balancing her schedule between her grades and kids. She may think she can squeeze in a few extra things but it can be very tricky.
My dad can struggle balancing his time at times between kids work and chores. It can slowly wear him down.
As our world slowly spins and is continually progressing, our society is changing. Our lives are becoming more hectic and faster paced. We are jumping from one event to another, without rest. As the pace increases, people are rising to the occasion and accepting the challenges set before them by trying to balance their current schedule, while trying to make room for even more activities.

My average day is just one example of how chaotic a student’s life can get. My day begins at four a.m. with piles of homework, after a quick shower to wake myself up. Once I finish the homework, I get ready and head to early morning basketball practice at 5:30. Next, after I clean up from practice, the dreaded day of school begins. As the periods slowly pass, a pile of homework quickly accumulates with a one-page essay in history, 50 problems in calculus, and a thousand-word essay in English class. Then the grueling school day comes to an end and I begin the next part of my day by attending club meetings and after school practices
