Part-time compatible with school?

I just had to do it, it seemed too awesome not to. I spent most of yesterday and today at my grandmother's summer cabin and I'll probably go back there tomorrow because... well, there's not much to do here. More summer stuff available over there and there's sun, water and just... my grandmother, delicious ice-cream etc. However, watching Supernatural there doesn't really work and I was excited about checking my email (waiting on some Snape/Lily fic betaing getting back to me) and well... I have to write that Master/Lucy fic like now so I don't get hanged when the ficathon end-date is up. Which I need to recheck by the way. Also, I wonder just how much of a shipper fic I can make that fic. Oh well.

Also, you people that work: Is part-time compatible with school? I'm thinking about applying for a job at McDonalds *groan* and they're looking for full-time and part-time workers and I was wondering if the latter would fit into my life so it doesn't like... crash with school.

Woo-hoo! I report ya to the Eljay ppl! Go me! :p

As for the working bit, well I'm fortunate I guess. Because my job is being a free-lance writer/journalist. So, I don't even have to go to the office unless they need me there (which is never) and I do my work from home or anywhere so long as there's a PC and I have all my material ready. Best part is, if I'm too busy with university, I can turn down the writing assignments. :)

lol. Oh yes, I'm keeping my eye on you ;)

That's so awesome. I so wish I could do that. Or maybe not... I'd prefer a job where I'd get out of my house :P Sort of. How did you land the writing gig?

Oh, I definitely get out of the house. Still need to do interviews and photoshoots. XD

As for the writing gig... hmmm... it's funny how most of the things that have happened to me just sort of fall into my lap. The writing gig started before I entered university. I was a stringer for a newspaper here, then quit before I started my term. Then later that year, another newspaper had openings for youth writers that accomadate to a student's schedule. So I applied for it and got it. :)
