@fuwaalol I feel many of Japanese high school students are very busy. Especially in Kyushu area. I’m from Kyushu, so I introduce about my school. Some of schools in Kyushu starts from 7:30. It called “asa kagai”. It means the lessons before the first hour. So we have to get up early and go to school everyday. Usually, Japanese students don’t go to the school which is nearest from their house. We take entrance exams at the end of junior high school and decide high schools. Most of all go to the most highest level schools which they can go. So we have to get up early. And, Japanese high schools don’t have school lunches. We usually take obento to school and have it with friends. Mom made it for me every day. We have 6 or 7 lessons in a day. One lesson is about 50 minutes. We can choose some of lessons. The lessons end about 4:30. After that, we do the club activities. We can choose some of sports, music and so on. Most of all students are member of clubs. But 3rd graders are couldn’t do the activities. They have more lessons after 4:30!! And we have school on Saturday, and during the half of summer vacation too. The teachers are very busy, too. And then, some of students go to juku (cram school) and study more!! They go back home at 10-11 pm. I went there too. I took suppers at juku everyday. My friend bought it from near convenience store. That was a really hard life cycle. But we enjoy the high school life! There are something related to love or passion, many friends, experiences and so on! Am I making sense?
