How many extra activities not related to school do you do a week?
Things like sport, music, drama, part time work etc.
How do you think these activites affect your education?

Re: extra activities

i have:

Monday: Nothing
Tuesday: Bible Study 7-9 pm
wednesday: Guitar lessons 4.30-5.00 pm
thursday friday: nothing
Sunday Church/youth- 4-7:30 pm

I dont think that this interferes with my studies i think my study interferes with this. I consider bible study and church as well as my faith in general much more important then school.

Re: extra activities

I don't see how Church can be considered extra cirricular.

Re: extra activities

Uhh, I have swimming training twice a week, piano once a week and tutoring once a week

its actually not that much.. come to think of it

I've cut down heaps since last year ^^ not that it seems like I have any more time than usual o_O

piano practice takes up so much time!!!

As they say, it's all about time management, but that's easier said than done I reckon! even if I stopped all my extra curricular, I would probably still would manage to fill up my time with something unproductive.. so might as well spend it doing sport or music! xD
