Doing 365 while being busy with school.

August 4th, 2012
I'm a junior in highschool this fall, and the school(s) I'm going to are hard-working schools. I go to a charter school from 8:05-12:00, then I go to a creative arts school from 1:15-3:45. The first school is where I'll do my regular subjects like math, literature, science, and such. The second school is where I go to train as a pianist. I only take classes such as chamber music, theory, performance classes, and private lessons at this school. I'll be busy doing work for both schools and busy practicing piano a lot.

I don't want to quit the 365 project, seeing as I just started! I'm just wondering what some you teens do to keep up with 365 and school. Thanks a lot! :)

I managed it on top of A Levels, if you're short of time, take them but don't edit/upload for a few days :) Also, remember that not every shot has to be perfect!

I am fitting the project in alongside working full time, studying for a degree part-time and being a mum. It is blinking hard going but the 365 Project keeps me going in all honesty - it is my bit of 'heaven' or my bit of 'me time'. Good luck with all your studying.

I seem to manage somehow on top of working a full-time job with crazy hours (50+ per week not uncommon in busy times). I think it's the fact that from the very beginning I committed to finishing it no matter what... even if I have a run of mediocre photo days, at least they're there haha. Also as @megsy said, it's my bit of "me time" in the evenings, which helps too. Hope I helped, good luck with everything! :) @izayaa

Thats what Im scared of. Im 15 and about to go into year 11 and although I have done some exams already I have loads more. and revision to do. Im a tad worried 365 might get pushed aside, Obviously I need to prioritise. I love photography, I really hope I can keep it up aswell as working hard at GCSE's. :) x

Good luck, Hope you can keep 365 up aswell as school. Ive looked at your photos, your really good.

Well, I'm not a teen, but I am a middle school teacher, and have two small children. It's tough to keep up with sometimes, but my busier days end up with a less than well-thought-out photo. Just keep snapping, even if it's just a snapshot.

@naomi Thank you! and that's what I was planning on doing. I think I will edit and upload the pictures on the weekends. :)

@megsy You have your hands more full than I do! That's crazy how much you're doing! Lol. Well, if you can do it, being as busy as you are, than so can I. Lol. And thank you! Good luck to you too! :)

@kelsi87 You also have your hands full! And yeah, I am a person who commits to my work, so I think I'll make it. Hopefully. Lol Thanks for the comment, and good luck to you also! :)

@raggleroo We'll make it hehe! And thank you so much! Good luck to you, too! :)

@snippets You're an adult with a job, and you're a mom! You have your hands more full than I do, so I guess that means I shouldn't even be complaining about this. Lol. I'll keep snapping! Hehe, thanks! :)
