School in general. It was so much work. Homework is torture, at least now once my day is finished I don't have to worry about it until the next morning.
So few responsibilities while in school, though. I think about this often. I don't know how anyone stays on top of everything that needs doing as an adult. Work, bills, laundry, dishes, cleaning/tidying, cooking, meal planning, shopping, trash, recycling, healthy sleep,..... It's endless.
Now that you say it, actually highschool was pretty chill. I was living on my own in college, so it was your whole list, plus classes, plus homework, and that was the real hell.
That makes a lot of sense. I had an apartment when I was in grad school and I was working full time and commuting to school twice a week. That was a lot.
In grad school I was working full time and only taking two subjects per semester. It was so much easier than a full study load—I actually enjoyed it and had a much higher GPA than my undergraduate degree.
