Being a Student-Athlete

A lot of students on campus think that it is easy being a student-athlete. I hear people saying that we have it easy because the school caters to us. That is definitely not the case. Being a student-athlete you have to schedule or you will end up falling behind. Every minute of the day is important. During season is the most hetic time. You rarely have time to do anything besides school work or something to do with your sport. If you plan your days you may be able to squeeze a nap in every now and then. Sometimes you just feel like going to sleep and not doing your work. We somtimes see ourselves falling behind due to missing class because of away games. Overall being a student-athlete can tough, but you are the one who signed up for it.
