In terms of going out, studying, exercise, how does everyone manage their time after school and on weekends?

and how much sleep do you get overnight?

personally my circadian rhythm  is stuffed, i sleep at 1:30 in the morning and wake up 7:10, use to be 11-7:15 haha

Going out: Not very often throughout year 12, mainly because CBF and guilt of not studying. Now that I will be getting my license in hopefully a fortnight, I'll probably go out every weekend.

Studying: I never studied throughout this year. I would do nothing at school and learn everything the morning of the SAC which put me under a lot of pressure, after after failing my last few SACS at the end of last term I am changing that up. I will start finishing school at 3:35 and going straight to the library until about 5:45, putting in 2 hours of solid study which is huge for me. I did this once last week and loved it, but I'm juggling that and driving lessons next week.

Exercise: Absolutely zero. I bought this entire gym with my own money, built it and have used it probably half a dozen times over the last year. I feel so great after exercising but for some reason I just never bring myself to it. I think because I don't really know what I'm doing and don't know how to educate myself properly when I don't get it the first time on certain exercises, as well as nutrition. I've started cooking recently but absolutely clueless on the topic of macros.

Managing time: I don't really. As I mentioned I don't really do too much socially because of stupid reasons which is bound to change soon, but on weekends I'll be watching TV shows, watching footy or going to the footy, something along those lines. If I have a SAC like I do tomorrow, I'm going to be sitting at my desk for the next 2-3 hours learning all the content. This is my best subject (GA1 was 96/100 I think) and I'm absolutely clueless as to what the SAC is on tomorrow.

Sleep: On school nights I'll go to bed at around 1 and wake up at 7:30. Recently I've been skipping school for the first few hours, calling in saying I had missed the bus or something and come in at around 11, so I had been waking up at 8 and sleeping until 10. That was really only for the first week of school though because I had been waking up at like 11 every morning of the holidays after 4am sleeps.

Mondays I work after school until 10, which is fine by me because I have two spares the next morning to do homework.

Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday, I just go home and chill then study.

Fridays I finish school early so I get all my homework out of the way and then just chill and probably watch the footy or read a book or play with my sister.

I usually take Saturday off to go out, sometimes I work a shift. I do try to fit in an hour or two of study.

Sunday is just the entire day at home to study after feeling guilty for not doing much the past couple of days  :P

I usually get 6 hours of sleep on school nights and 7 if I'm lucky, I generally feel okay with this but I know it's not enough because I always crash on a Friday night and wake up after 10 hours of sleep haha.

I never exercise...I used to do athletics and be really sporty what happened  :( Well...I count walking home from school, playing with my sis and working as exercise so all good :)

Go home, nap for 30-45 minutes, shower + eat, homework/study and then sleep.
Repeat for 5 days with exercise fitted in tuesday and thursday.
Weekends honestly spend my time feeling guilty of wasting time during the weekend. -.-  ;D

Currently, I have band rehearsal Monday after school and Friday morning. But I'm planning to quit in the next couple of weeks because the music department has unrealistic expectations of how committed we need to be.

Monday: come home from rehearsal, couple of hours of study and dinner and maybe a bit of TV
Tuesday - Friday: start study at 4:30, generally end up getting at least 3 hours done and 30 minutes of exercise and dinner. TV from usually 9 if there's a show on that I like

Saturday and Sunday: I will have work for about 4-5 hours on either of these days. Other day that I don't have work involves a fair chunk of studying, going for a drive and exercise of some form and visiting the grandparents if I have time. 18ths on a Saturday night are pretty standard too.

I get home from school, allow myself half an hour to relax and then do two hours study (sometimes more if there's a SAC the next day etc). I go to bed between 9:30 and 10:00 depending if I have work or not, and  then sleep til 7:30 or 8 depending how tired I am.

Saturdays I work a nine hour shift at work, and so I allow this to be my day off from study.

Sundays I do a little bit but nothing terribly much. Maybe like 2 hours if I am in the mood. I usually feel terrible but I need a day to rest per week (;

As for going out, I am one of those unfortunate '14ers who don't turn eighteen until next April. Sober life....

yeah same at my school, i quit after year 7 haha. People that have continued it now hate it, well most of them, and the only reason they continue is because parents think they have potential after 3 years.

how often are 18ths?

I thought I had potential but the amount of pressure that the music department puts on its students has taken the fun out of playing for me and therefore I barely practice at home anymore.

18ths are starting to pick up again now, on average once a fortnight?

I actually established a semi-decent routine for the first time in my life this year*

*month**

** two weeks ago

Get up 6 most days, school gym for an hour, die walking up the steps to my first period bcz hiit is exhausting.

Guitar practice after school

Get home 5ish, spend the evening trying to not feel guilty about doing homework instead of helping mum look after little brother, end up playing with him/putting him to bed and not getting any work done

Rinse & repeat

Weekends = 'tutor while trying to fit in schoolwork or socializing on the side' time
