    Back when I was younger I had a terribly long list to do. You'll probably never get round to half of them, trust me.

    I could argue that teaching someone else to program is benefical too but often difficult to teach friends stuff.
    Make some content and people are happy.
    Teach someone with an interest to make content and... silly

    Also puppy? big grin what kind! spend lots of time with it when its young dude xD

    No it's not normal. You should be studying and playing games only. If you wanna work on a game you should concentrate your free time in just one. But school's first kid.

    A lot of the things on that list are shared responsibilities and some are not daily occurances. As long as you learn how to delegate and prioritize your free time, all of that is very manageable.

    And like others have said, school should come first! tongue

    It's probably normal to have a lot of stuff to do at your (our) age.
    It just learned to ignore some less important things, and not starting something new unless i have nothing else to do.

    Drop all of that and focus on the dog.

    The hardest but most important thing to do is to simplify your life. Too many ways to make it more complicated.

    Nothing is normal, normal is nothing more than a lie that has been propagated by the Man.

    Seriously though, it's normal. If you can maintain a good grade average your fine. Just don't stress yourself out with the modeling and modding, I've done that for games before like Oblivion and flipped out if something went wrong after hours of working on it.

    Normal is the aspect of measurement towards quantity and consistency... As well as relations.

    If you really feel swamped just talk to your friends about it, they would understand if you needed more time or couldn't help them any more. The things like making mods are not necessarily important, unless you promised a group of people you'd get it done on time.

    And don't stress about the Trainers. Take your small hiatus from DkS and everything will be fine.

    By the way, I know the feeling. Early years of high school suck. I'm currently a senior and I have a lot of free time, but once sports start in January I will be swamped once again just like my freshman and sophomore years.

    The one thing i will tell you is to focus on your Sister and your Dog, those will become an important part of your life and you will regret it if you neglect them because of Video Games .

    But nah, i was equally busy when i was your age (Why do i sound so Old ? Im only 19 goddamnit :x ) but eventually i cut of all those useless time consumers (in my case Video Games) and had a grand old time happy

    Short answer; No, it's not normal.

    Long answer; Atleast not when I was 14. That's a sh't load of stress, plus having to deal with life issues. Like I said, That's a sh't load of stress for your age.

    So, No, it's not normal.

    My advice:
    You are only 14 once try to enjoy it more java coding, mod making and managing online clans? You dont really need that, also spending your time on the computer too much is a really really bad thing specially at that age. Go out more worry less simples winking

    My life's philosophy in one phrase, thank you. Anyway Tiny from my view, that is a lot to handle but it's not insane. My advice catagorize and handle what you can control now, do what is important now and handle the rest at a time. Since school isn't an issue for you, try to handle what is needed at home first. I have dug some large graves myself for not doing what I needed to do at home before, but got it under control before I really messed up.

    Maybe for the covenant you should put one of the members as a second or third in charge so you can get on with the rest of that list. Hopes this helps!

    I spent WAY too much time on the computer when I was 14, managed to cut down to incredibly rarely by 16 when I'm not doing actual work on it.

    Trust me, it gives you so much more time to yourself.

    Okay, as much as I hate to admit it. video games are a timesink a fun timesink but A timesink regardless. you should not let them take priority over IRL stuff. if you just say to your online friends that you need to spend less time on there I'm sure they will understand.
