You can't get a job with just having the skill to do 3 no scope shots in 10 seconds.

the problem with AAA gaming is that it's a very involved hobby. To truly enjoy it You need to play a couple of hours every session. This makes it hard to fit into your day unlike (for example) reading a book which is enjoyable even if You do it for just 20 mins before going to bed. Try that with gaming and before You know it hours have passed and it's 2am.

I don't really remember how I did it but I always found time to play games. On the weekends and stuff. I generally do all my homework on the weekdays. Now that I work I always find time whenever I am not doing anything. I do two shifts a day so I go home and play games between shifts for a bit and then on my day off I only play games and catch up on news and anime and youtube.

I'm able to do it. This year, I'll be studying for quite serious exams. So my motto for this year is: Work at school, Play at home. Basically, try and finish as much homework/coursework at school, and then come back home for 3 hours of gaming time to relax yourself. Just try and make it a routine that you live by everyday.

Just do it!    Try not to be exited for video games and finishing fast during final exams.

May GabeN guide the OP into a future rich in gaming.

To game in a sufficient manor one must be of great wealth- Saint Linus

My followers come hither, come yonder but never forget that to convert to Master Race is to graduate- Saint Wendel

My children must graduate to be wealthy and afford my following- GabeN

All the major dietys agree that you must graduate to be a true follower, so get graduating. Even if you must ignore gaming for a while, GabeN will accept you and love you.

And so GabeN has told us to march forthith unto the Land of Holy welding our swords of mice, shields of keyboards, and helmets of Oculus Rifts where we shall reclaim it-which is rightfully ours-from the PUNY Console Peasants from whom armed only with mere controllers we shall decimate in all forms of battle and we shall dominate even in their most ridiculous tradition and infatuation of CoD. Yes, my brothers- sisters and trans sexuals too- we shall destroy the inferior of races with our might and majesty. And if any Peasants wish to join us they must speak now or forever perish. -Ancient Speech from a Leader of Old, Book of Murratri section 2

Meh.. I would say you can game first then do homework as long as you can control yourself.

Personally, I played first then did the homework through out my high school and college life.

Ended up with a Mechanical Engineering degree with a job out the college door.

The only days where I would drop gaming is couple days before tests.

Learning starts in class, something very important i learned. If it takes a while to get home after school (train or bus).

Just re-read the difficult parts of that day, probably math or something like that.

A nice tip i'm trying to do and gives me a great feeling, do everyday after school all tasks you received.

Example: you received today a task for friday, make it now. When you take your diary thursday and see that you have something for friday that's already finished, could make you very happy. (works for me).

Like today for me, received tasks for thursday and friday, all finished, so i don't need to be bothered about them anymore.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Spying on everyone to fight against terrorism is like shooting a mosquito with a cannon
