It sounds like you have a lot going on!  If none of what you need to do exp=
licitly requires Org, you may have to scale back what you learn about Org t=
o fit the time you've got. Give yourself permission to accept that the time=
 you have right now for Org isn't what you want. (I hope that's because you=
're learning lots of other cool things in school.)  In situations like thes=
e, I like to do just a little each day. Maybe that means reading one paragr=
aph a night before bed.  It sounds like you're really excited about Org.  (=
If you are, you've come to the right place. The people here love Org :) Rea=
ding about Org would be something fun to look forward to each night. You mi=
ght be surprised at how motivating that one little paragraph can be! Workin=
g through the manual in this way will give you a good overview of how Org c=
an be used and what you personally might use Org it for.

My suggestion is to not try something new on anything that has a tight dead=
line. Org is new to you and learning things takes time. This is all normal.=
 Life will throw a lot at you.  Some times all I get is 20 minutes at the e=
nd of the day.  Some days, I get nothing at all. This is because I've fille=
d my life with other cool things, like a partner, a house, friends, etc. If=
 I get to spend some time doing something I think is worthwhile (like tryin=
g to help a fellow Org enthusiast), that's time well spent in my book.

Isn't there some saying that goes like, "every avalance starts as a snowfla=
ke?" Read a little, experiment a little, and over time, you'll be surprised=
 at how much you've learned. You'll get there! =20
