Should i go home or stay??

Question

on mon. and wed. i got class from 8-9:15am then class at 12-1:40 i have 2 hours and 45 minutes between, it takes about 1 gallon on gas to get home and back to college, right now gas is about $3.60 a gallon so thats $7.20 a week (and if/when gas goes up ill be saving more)!!! but i have to spend almost 3 hours in my truck or somewhere on campus. i come and ask for advice, what should i do??

Answer 1

I would just decide day to day.  I mean if you have a lot of studying to do you could spend the time in between at the library.  Maybe you could do this one day a week and the other day go home and come back.  If you have a week where you are short of cash then find something close by that you could do.  But instead of looking at it as $7.20 a week, look at it as 5 1/2 hours of wasted time sitting around in a truck.  For me the time has much more value than the money.

Answer 2

gahh i feel your pain. i'm stuck in a simular situation. i live like 15 miles from my school and also have a big gap between classes. but i think i'll just stay at school and use those hours to study or mess around on the computer (like i am now lol) but if you don't have any studying or work that needs to be done, then i'd go home and relax. just play it by ear. :)

Answer 3

Whenever I have classes that are that far apart I always stay on campus.  Maybe go to the library or something and get on the computer, study for an exam, or work on a paper.  but, if you wanna save your gas then I would stay. I live about 45 mins away from my college though.  

Answer 4

Stay on campus.  There's plenty to do on most college campuses.  Go to the library and do your homework (rather than doing it at home), go to the gym, hang out with your friends, whatever.

Answer 5

I say stay on campus and use that time to do your homework or even study.
