When
you think about it, 8 am isn't that early. All through elementary and High
School, we've always started around 8 am. Why is it suddenly people lose their
minds when they have 8 am classes? Why is it suddenly so much earlier? 8 am has
been not a minute earlier or later since man first inventing them concept of
time. Don’t get me wrong, I think 8 am is extremely early. Thus going to what
this whole blog will be about: Changing the time classes start. Surely not much
gets done at 8 am. I know personally the class I have this semester at 8 am I
really get nothing doesn't except Facebook.
Even then, there’s nothing exciting
since it barely changed from the night before. 
The people who decide these
things, do they not think before the plan schedules? At least in High School and Elementary school
you usually lived down the street and were done at 3 pm tops.
In post-secondary,
some people travel up to a couple of hours to get to school; I have a friend
that commutes to Waterloo every day. Not only that, but classes can end really
late sometimes. Also while in post-secondary, the need to have a part-time job
is almost necessity. Not to mention all the late hours doing homework. Is there
any wonder so many students suffer depression and have health issues and are
always falling asleep in class? Even pushing the earliest class to 10 would
make the world of difference. I believe there was a study that showed the brain doesn't properly work till after 10 am, though that’s subjective to your sleep
pattern in general. Granted changing the
start time would also make the last class end later and that could also cause a
problem when it comes to travelling home late and students trying to maintain a
part time job. All in all, the school schedules really shoot themselves in the
foot. I don’t know if there really is any real solution, nor do I have nay
power to change it. All I have to do is just bite the bullet and go to class…At
least most of the time
