Do I really see things that differently?

I've never considered myself a "lazy" person. I do procrastinate and don't always perform to my ability, but I've never been called lazy (at least by anyone who's opinion counts). On the other hand, I've never really been an "overachiever." If something interest's me, then of course I'm going to put more time and effort into it, but I've never been the sort to spend my sunny afternoons inside studying (unless absolutely necessary). I do do quite a bit: 19 credits (maintaining a 3.8+GPA), work (anywhere from 10-40 hours a week), run a house (a full-time job on the side), go to the boys rugby games, organize things for the department (comes with being President), and enjoy going out and catching up with friends. My school work ain't easy either. Even just from knowing the classes that the Food Management kids are taking vs what the Food Science kids are taking, it get's me red in the face when they complain about algebra or Intro to Natural Science. Really?
I am busy and I like to have things to do, but am I really that much more busy than the average person? or just more so than the average college kid? Granted, I do have my own house and keeping that up and running, as I said before, is quite a chore that most college kids don't experience, but I fail to see how taking 19 credits and working and having all that other stuff is really that... outstanding. I take on more than most I suppose, but it's not that much. Is it? I always think to myself, "I'm not working hard enough, I'm not doing enough," but I'm beginning to realize that I do do quite a bit. And I do it well.
The people in my "food classes" tend to be of the more mature and wise than any other major on campus I believe. A majority of them (although we are very, very few in number) have been out in the work place for numberous years (some have kids and one, grandkids!!) and are here, in school, to learn. No dick around and get wasted and hook up with as many people as possible. They are here to make their lives better in the long run. I love that about my fellow Food Scientists. They drive me to work and do well and be a leader, a role model. I love that they come to me for help and gossip. These people inspire me as well. Kids! They have KIDS! And they're going to school full-time. That blows my mind. They do well in school and keep a family together, and they are impressed by me, by what I take on and by what I do. Baffling. I don't think it's deserved, quite honestly.
