Balancing Life is Not That Easy...

...for many school girls. We have so many things to do and 24 hours a day is just not enough. Going to the hairdresser, hanging out with friends, writing homework, doing chores, extracurricular activities, all these can put pressure on our tender shoulders. Here are today's tips to help you out in this question:
1.
Get organized by using a planner. Write down everything (birthdays, special events, assignments, etc.), and be sure to have it with you every day.
2.
Help out at home, and don't complain when you need to do a chore. Your parents will rely on and respect you more.
3.
Try to get good grades at school. Your future depends on this time of your life, so don't be lazy if you want to achieve your goals.
4.
Spend time with your friends and love, but remember that
weekends are the best time to do activities together. On weekdays, don't 'force' yourself to hang out for hours if you have to learn much for the next day. I'm sure that they will understand it, if they are your real friends.
5. Always look neat, and
care about your appearance. It's important, because people will notice you more.
6. If you have got a part-time job,
try to work on weekends (on weekdays you have enough going on, right?), or decide which day is the best for you to do your job. (
I'm trying to get a job right now, and since I can't work on weekends, I decided to work on Fridays - that's the only day when I don't have any after-school activities, and I don't need to learn for the next day).
7.
Relax and get enough sleep! I'm sure you don't want to end up as a wreck. Some people say that 6 hours of sleep in enough, and some say that 10 hours is needed. I vote for 8.
