Work n study at the same time

It was indeed very taxing, i lost alot of free time...
But at least during working hrs, i can revise my studies... anyone share the same periods?

i used to work and study.. mus see lar.. my boss was good lar.. work weekends in the office then when nothing to do, can still study abit.. so my studies wun lag behind that much..

pros and cons...

work and study.. can spend more freely.. less time exchanged

study only.. more free time, no money to spend..

true.. but working+ study is oso gd.. i cant concentrate and study on and on for hours.. the working part sorta gifs me a "break" in between my readings.

Work n study at the same time,i think it had becoming more common.
mainly due to the enviroment we're in.
i experience studying n working throughout my later stage of studies.
i pretty enjoy the process of earning my own $

No choice, cannot stop having income, must work, cannot waste time, time fully utilise.... If not, students are always the poorest, also can learn independence too, depends on ownself.

I work and studied at the same time. It is great as you can put theory into practice almost immediately. You see, i happen to beat my competition at the market place because i know about market theory(economics), competitive strategy(porter's 5 forces)...lol and lotsa others more. Other fruit sellers in the market now running away! Now I achieve almost monolopy (well, almost - would say a duopoly).... ....kekekeke.

Downside? Sacrifice sleep time. My sleep time is about 3-4, max 5 hours daily. And I had gotten used to it now. Hey, but you get to know the world more. And teh more you know about it, the better you are - its knowledge that you have that stays with you perpetually.

And that is why all the fuss about IP. Intellectual Property...not Internetworking Protocol.

i started working part time while schooling full time in secondary school days; all for the sake of money. luckily me, it didnt really affect my studies.

I used to do that in my secondary school days, ended up dropping out from school xD

i started working ever since the A levels exams ended last year..

means i entered the workforce on December 28 2006.

the day i entered hell.

and i know some pple who dun have any work experience at all and they're around my age.. rich pple. veri rich.

Working full time.. and my studies starting in 2 week's time... with my working hours.. it sure is going to be extra taxing for me man...

but what has to be done has to be done...

wisely, i wish you good luck.
