Well I just got home from my first day of classes this year and I have never had such a weird schedule. I have to go clear across the campus between almost every class. Our campus isn't that big but it's still tough to go across it in the time allowed. And every Tuesday and Wednesday, I'll be there for 6 or 7 hours. On Monday and Friday I have English, then Biology, then Math, and finally Biochemistry. On Tuesday I have Chemistry then a Bio lab and then a Biochem lab. On Wednesday I have the same as Monday but with a Chem lab after it. And finally on Thursday I have Chemistry and then a little math thing after that. It's not exactly a class but more like an extension of my class. But I guess I'll be getting my exercise walking around all day. Anyone else have a crazy schedule?

I remember when I was in college having crazy schedules and having to walk clear across campus and back to get to my classes. We had a pretty big campus...it could take a good 15 minutes or so to get from one side to the other! But like you said, at least you will be getting some exercise!

I don't know if this is crazy, but it sucks!! I am in class on Mondays and Wednesdays from 11 AM until 9PM!! I get 2, one hour breaks on Monday, and a 3 hour break on Wednesday between classes, but I live like 45 minutes away so I can't really go home... I just have to find stuff to do like read and workout! At least it is only two days!

My schedule's not too bad class-wise- I'm only taking three full classes plus music lessons this semester- but work messes everything up. On Monday Wednesday, I work 7-9am, class til 10:30, work til 2. Tuesday Thursday I work 7-9:30am, class til 2:30, work til 4:30. Friday I work 7-9am, class til 11:30, work til 5:30. The annoying thing about ending work at 2 or 4:30 is that (unless I want to fork out the cash to ride the bus) I have to wait til 6 every day for my fiance to pick me up! BLEAH, I'll just have to find people to hang out with... and I hear there's yoga classes at 4 on monday and wednesday, maybe I'll pick that up...

Wow, that does sound like a busy schedule!

The worst university schedule I had when was when I was doing my internship for my master's... I had to teach at the school from 7:15 a.m. until 2:45 p.m., had two three-hour classes at night from 4-7:00 and 7-10:00, then I'd go home and do homework and the work on the next day's lessons until 12:00 midnight. Then I'd get up at 5:30 a.m. and start it all over again.

Two semesters of that just about killed me, and I'm not kidding, I came down with (all at the same time) chronic fatigue and two other viruses that they couldn't identify.

Eat good foods and get as much sleep as you can. Good luck!
