i'm taking 15 credit hours at my college, and really don't know if i should work. i have enough money (barely) to live off of what i've saved, and also have savings bonds if that runs out, which it probably will.

i commute so i need gas money, but i don't think i can realistically work, just kind of venting but also i don't really know what to do. at home, i'm watching siblings (one's a toddler so...) and cleaning (which i dont have a problem with) but working, school, and home stuff will be too much.

i'm getting a single dorm next year i think, so i can just rest when i need to. classes aren't the problem, it's the extras that i can't really do anything about.

do you think working is a stupid idea? the more i think about it, it seems like my grades will be lower (even if just a little), and i'll have no energy but - i need money so i'm confused
