Look on the brightside. You still have the weekend when you are in school. Wait until you get a family and every single fucking weekend is taken up events you don’t want to go to but you get nagged into.
I would gladly take a side job over another weekend birthday party. Work isn’t supposed to be fun, there is something insulting about being dragged to something supposed to be fun but isn’t.
As I am typing this it occurs to me I have a solution to my problem. Thanks for inspiring me.
Eh, OP may be complaining but if they have a family then their family deserves some of their time. A hobby isn’t gonna make the responsibilities disappear, just give them another thing to compete for their time.
Op needs to talk to their family and figure out how to make time for self care.
True, but that still fits with the hobby idea - they could use a personal interest to drag their family into instead of always being dragged to everyone else’s things

Hey, you don’t need a family to have your whole weekend eaten up by a bunch of shit you don’t wanna do.
I don’t know. Had a few good years between marriage and uni where I could fill my weekend with fun stuff. That was pretty nice.
Then why did you decide to have kids?
Yeah but most people in school have to hold a side job too to make ends meet
Including me.

Haha nice. Might I also recommend taking up a very time-consuming yet rewarding hobby?

I had homework during the weekend when I was in school…
