Snowed under.

College is really getting to me. I'm completely snowed under with coursework - doesn't help that I work all weekend (well only 8 hours but I never have time to do anything).
So I've decided to quit my job to concentrate on my coursework, but I don't know where to start. I have two A2 art projects to complete by the end of February, including a final piece, a 3000 word essay for Media, and now we're starting written coursework for Film Studies.
I'm losing sleep over it. I just want to get it out of the way but I can never find the time. By the time I've worked by notice for work it'll be the end of February - exactly when my Art is due.
I don't know how anyone can help me, but someone try?

What else are you doing with your time that you could cut back on (even temporarily)? I had to leave for sixth form at 7am, got back about 5:15pm, worked 16 hours a week and still managed to fit all my coursework in; it's just a question of priorities and making time.
Take care!
Even if you're at college in classes 9-4 with just enough time to eat at lunch, you still have 5 hours in the evening that you can use for coursework, allowing an hour for travelling and half an hour for tea, and be finished by 2230.
Write down a timetable, and work it through until 9pm or 10pm at night. A good 3 hour chunk of work most evenings and you'll fly through your coursework.
Workload wont last for ever, best to put your social life etc on the backburner in the short term.
