Having rigid schedules with little to no wiggle room sure contribute to that, doesn't it. It's really frustrating to me. For quite a long period of time (around a year-ish), I didn't do anything else except work from home which was, for the most part, pretty chill. Naturally, even though I'm living with my partner, I had a lot of time on my hands to go to ping pong practice, play games, and other things. Now, I've recently started an apprenticeship and now I have time to do fuck-all once I get home from school. Groceries, cooking, some cleaning, and then it's basically time to sleep lol. Barely, if any gaming, no time on my hands to go to practice etc.

We've been struggling a lot recently, but I'm still holding out hope that it'll get a little better once we're accustomed to the schedule even if it'll probably only get more later on. One can hope, I guess.

It really does help to appreciate the little time we have (I have) to do recreational activities, though. It does feel really special then.
