Currently having a inner debate.

School starting soon (studying game design). 5 days a week, and even on wednessday from 8am to 5pm.
then i will be doing a evening course for paramedic, 2 to 3 (sometimes on saturday) evenings in the week, ontop of school.
Then i will have to spent atleast one evening each week into fencing (you know swordfighting :D).......gearing up to pown on the nationals this year and cant drop this no matter what.
also ontop of that i will continue doing volunteer work for the red cross (i cant drop that, it would mean dropping most of my social life).

What days will i have left for starcraft? Monday evening, saturday and sunday...and perhaps i can throw in a few games after my evening course for paramedic (maybe a hour playtime).

I love starcraft, i love it because it involves competing with others, but after more then a year of playing starcraft and making the struggle from bronze league to even finnishing top 8 master league last season. How can i keep up with so little spare time? Last season i was in the top 2000 of europe..but i notice that even if i stop playing for more then a week, i will start going on lose streaks. This sucks so hard.

Should i just keep playing whenever i get the time? anyone else experience with these kind of situations? Can i make it so that i keep improving instead of growing rusty?

Going to miss these days, playing starcraft, watching streams...ah well, we all have to grow up some time i guess. Just wish i could somehow stick to my dream of becoming the best in starcraft.

TT
