Fly It By The Eagle's Eye
I don’t have time to do homework after work. What do I do?
Balancing homework with our daily lives can be challenge; whether it is sports, work, or after school activities, many students at Trumbull High find themselves coming home during dinner time. They’re tired and exhausted, but still have about three hours of homework to do before hitting the bed. So what do you do? Time management is key. The best way to manage your time is by making a schedule. Calculate every minute of your day and schedule your homework in those extra fifteen or twenty minutes you have free. You may find that you have quite a few of these small chunks of time and they can add up quickly to 3 hours. You can always try and multitask during your free periods; eat your lunch while you do your homework or try and get to school early so that you have time before class to finish up your work. But remember, school always come first. If you feel as if you’re struggling with coursework, you should think about your priorities; you may have to sacrifice one of your hobbies in order to find time for homework.
What can you do on your first date in Trumbull?
The Bow Tie Marquis Cinema is probably the best place to go for your first date. It’s really the only place in Trumbull for teens besides the mall. It also adds a less stressful environment since you don’t have to make small talk if you’re completely nervous. Avoid the mall at all costs; not only will you prevent your date from having wandering eyes, your date might also feel uncomfortable if they feel like they have to buy you something. Marie’s Sandwich Shop in Trumbull Center, which is now open after dark, is also a great place to go and eat; you might want to go to Starbucks to have a coffee and nice chat as well. The Parlor Rock has a beautiful trail too, if you want to go for a walk or bike ride.
