When Classes Start...

When classes start for you guys, do you completely give up games or wait and see what it's like before going back?

I start classes again in less than 2 weeks - I expect it to be hell because I won't be getting home before 6:30 - 7 pm on any day of the week - I won't be playing any games for about a whole month - i do that every semester, just to get used to it all

and after the first few weeks, you know what your whole schedule is like, if you can afford to play games and etc..

I have a few friends that completely give up gaming until the term ends which is why i asked the question. See what you guys do.

Well usually I play like there's no classes, but since i'm not in high school anymore we'll have to see

Some things i'll want to do in college:
Make a band
hang out with friends
get good grades
work out.

It's gonna be a very delicate balance.

make a band - i tried that and failed miserably - i was in a band in junior high school but then we had a lot of time and not as much work lol - good luck with the band, i still want to set one up with friends but it takes time to actually set one up - i also wasn't able to work out lol - started over the summer

but last year my schedule was the best - i used to get home at like 12:30 pm 3 days a week and i had plenty of time to play games - now i picked late classes so I can go to sleep late and my brain functions better during the afternoon anyway :D hopefully i can do all of that and play a few hours of games in the weekend *crosses fingers*

I play it by ear and what I have to do that day.

I play games as if I never had classes.

I do homework on the bus or at school, never at home.
Bad choice on my part, and I plan on changing that this year. We'll see how it turns out.

I wait to see what my days will be like.
Then I plan my gaming accordingly :]

I play a lot less games during the school year. Sports are a big factor, Basketball starts up again this winter. I played during the summer, but had practice like 3 times a week and games on weekends. Now, because it's the regular season Practice is every day and games are throughout the week. Then there is homework that I may have. I normally play games still though, just not nearly as often. I'll still be able to check forums at least once a day.

I'll probably end up playing a little bit of game a day. Like a game of universe at war, or maybe get a few levels on an RPG.

well I'm not in school anymore but when I was my gaming time really didn't change, just the hours I was doing it changed.

I play whenever I get the chance... with band that isn't as often as I'd like though.

I tend to Study while I play games or whatever I need to do.
Fortunately I can Multitask very well.

I usually take the wait and see approach, although this semester coming up is going to be a heavy one so I will likely have to scale back my playing almost completely. :(

Who are the 9 pansies who didn't choose option 1?

I didnt choose number 1 but thats because I want to do well in school and I want to do my homework before i game. it depends on how much homework I actually have.

Some of us are going to COLLEGE, which costs A LOT OF MONEY, and don't want to FAIL OUT of college because we played TOO MANY GAMES.

You actually have to study in college. You're only 16, you've got some time. I only have 4 days.

I stop a little but school dosn't really effect me.

I start school next Tuesday. >.<
But I still play a little. Probably play a lot on weekends since I am stuck in a trailer, in the country side, bored to death. .-. ( I go camping on weekends )
But my gaming does decrease. =/
So I am able to play-I will do homework at school if possible to get that out of the way.
If I don't finish it, I will do it when I get home.
Then I'll be on the PC or playing video games. Hehe. :D

I usually play games less when I have classes. But this month I've actually played games more than usual.

since class started for me i' havent gotten a chance to play games more than 30 mins to an hour a day - but in the weekends, like the past 2 days, i have like 4 hours of total play :D but still not as much as I'd like because of all the assignments i have and I already have term reports i have to start :(

I just started last week and I have majorly decreased my gaming habits I went from playin on XBL all night long to playing 2-3 hours a night but on weekends I go back to my old habits it suks cuz I gotta get up at 5:30 AM now last year i didn't get up till 6:30 but the stupid @$$ school decided to start 20 mins earlier which means I "should" get home earlier but I don't I get home later than I did when School started 20 mins later last year its so fricken stupid

Still game, just not for hours :-P lol, do homework ect... Get ready for next day, revise (sometimes) and then game :-) I'm not hooked :-P

I could play games all day if I wanted to.
I dun have any games though, so I haven't played a single game since school started, lol.
I've been online and other things.
