I used to play alot in my freshman and sophomore years. Now in my junior year I barely play which is weird because I have less homework and stuff to do than those past years. I guess I'm just hella lazy to play honestly. I spend most of my time on the internet instead.

- After school before dinner,

- After homework and dinner,

- When I get home early on a free period and want to put off doing work until later in the afternoon,

- While your on the toilet. (Level up 'yer Pokemans)

- During technology c|asses (LAN PARTY!)

It's really easy for me. I'm in junior year, taking 2 AP classes, the hardest honors class in my school, and another honors class, with A's in all of them. If I wanted too, I could play 3 or 4 hours in a night (I typically don't though).

LOL! I was able to game every single night in highschool and still get a 95% average to get the highest enterance scholarship offered by the university of my choice. Just wait until you get to univeristy, that is when you really don't have time for gaming.

Well, I get home, and do homework. Then I can play.

Unless you go with people everyday, I don't see how you can't have time.

I got all the free time in the world to play after school, even if I don't do my homework, which I usually finish homework at school to be honest.

I'm smart so I finish my homework quickly or do it in school during downtime. I never study either.

You can just pack a game in a .rar file and then run it after you decompress it. It works, I can get any game running on the school computers. Also I have Steam on the school computers because I have the admin account :P.

When I was in high school I usually got my homework done at school and would go home and play video games. Kind of helps if you take a sick day and spend an entire day playing video games. Then again, I didn't actually have a job until my senior year, so I had plenty of time to video game binge before that. Sometimes you can bring handhelds to school to play during your lunch break; I know I did, but you have to make sure nobody is going to steal your games. Some of you complain you have no time to play video games; wait until you get to college and have to work to support yourself. You'll never have any time to play video games.

Lets see...

On Monday I have School, Cross Country, and Worship Band Practice

Tuesday is School, Cross Country, and Drum Practice

Wednesday is School, Cross Country, and Youth Group

Thursday and Friday is School and Cross Country.

I have homework everyday for Honors Algebra 2, Public Speaking (Making speaches to present), Advanced Placement US History (1 Chapter per week, usually one 2-3 page essay a week, and other reading things to pass the Exam), Honors English Homework (Reading, Vocab stuff for SATs), sometimes I have Biology homework, not often tho, and then I have Spanish 3 homework sometimes too.

I end up doing my homework right when I get home, every day, and on Saturdays after I finish bowling and Saturday Cross Country practice, also I do homework on Sunday after Church and Sunday School.

All of that basically gives me no time for Video Games, I only get to play when I stay home sick, school break, or during summer.

I'm only in 10th grade. Its alot of work, but the way I'm doing this is my Senior year will be pretty easy (not counting the AP World History class I'll be in, I am a huge fan of History, or the Honors English and Math class, I'll of done all of my other credits)

Also, I don't have a job ATM (I'm only 15, my state the law is you need to be 16, so 11th and 12th grade I will also have a job along with all the stuff I first mentioned)

It sounds like you are insinuating that because I don't finish my homework in school that I am dumb... I'll assume you mean otherwise tho (i.e. that you didn't mean for it to sound that way)

I play games on the weekend. I barely have time during school days, it would be a miracle if I could play at least 5 minutes until I think "Oh crap I need to finish this"
