I feel you!! I dont work "full time" but I work about 30 hrs a week and its an hour commute, so basically full time. This year is the biggest course load (junior year) and trying to get setup for an internship this summer pretty much ruined my last month.
I flew back and forth to NYC 5 or 6 times, had to reschedule tests for topics I had already missed. This month I am trying to get back to Par but it is just a pain.
You cannot blame the kids who's parents are paying, I wish mine were! They don't really understand my situation, but who wouldn't want a free ride! Or less debt! I honestly don't know anyone else here who is paying for themselves like me (I am sure there are kids out there), but when you are burdened with the debt, working, and school...it can get to you really fast! I totally understand man!
Although I look toward the future. I got some great offers for the summer and I am going to work for Goldman Sachs this summer. So while it sucks now, I hope it pays off, and pays the debt later on!
Keep your head up!
Tim
