The stress of surviving each day often causes a shift in schedules and priorities.
Students begin each semester with grand goals and intentions.
With their ambitions to maintain impressive grade point averages, pledge social clubs, attend every devotional, become active in church, spend time with friends, stay close to family and discover cures for rare diseases, students often promise to take care of their bodies. It happens every semester. As assignments accumulate and the desire to have fun doesn't decrease, students begin shifting schedules to find more time. Most of those hours come from when they should be sleeping, but that is considered to be expendable time. The incredible thing is that we make this choice with our eyes wide open.
