I have been so frustrated with balancing school work with all the craziness that has been taking place. I never understood how people could fail out of school, it seemed like you have a duty to go to your classes get somewhat decent enough of grades and just graduate. I have never had to try really hard in school but still did well. However, now with Mardi Gras, the never ending parades, the Saints winning the superbowl, it seems nearly impossible to get anything productive done! All of my work keeps coming, as does all the fun things spring semester has to offer, and I am just so torn. I cannot even believe we are almost at the point of midterms?! I keep feeling like we just started classes. I wish that while all of this was going on, the teachers would recongize and cut their students some slack. I just want to be able to have some time to get my life together and bring my social as well as academic life together and balanced.

I suspect that the vast majority of your teachers have given students a whole lotta slack. However, learning to balance your life is an important life skill and part of the learning experience that college offers. Students are not the only ones who have to balance. Believe iti or not, but faculty and staff are Saints fans, they are Mardi Gras fans, they have lots of familial and professional obligations and have to balance things as well.
