It all ‘ADDs’ up

ASHLEY WEYLER ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR ARW723@CABRINI EDU

The average college student belongs in a side-show act of a circus. Their balancing act of classes, homework, studying, partying, sports team practices, club meetings, working on cam- pus, working off campus, volunteer work, eating and sleeping is enough to make the bearded lady look like small potatoes.

When it comes down to it, the first ball to be taken out of the mix is sleep. Acollege student shouldn’t really ditch class too often; if they don’t study or do homework they fail; all the extracurricular activities are an escape form the academics, not to mention partying serving as an escape as well; working brings in the money; and for Cabrini College juniors, volunteer work is a must in order to graduate. Eating can be done during any one of those activities, so say adios to sleep, even though, nine hours of sleep a night has been deemed healthy.

Students need to stay awake. They need to stay alert. They need to study, do homework and pull all-nighters. How does one pull this off nowadays? Coffee?
