It's easier in summer because it's not so f#@king cold. Also, try setting your alarm for half an hour before you actually need to be out of bed so that you can take your time. I you can squeeze an intense ride into an hour, do it first thing when you get home so it's over and done with for the afternoon so you can get to working or partying for the rest of the afternoon. Also, in your first year, choose work over partying at least until after your first semester so that you can become familiar with the amounts of work and then find a balance according. Myself, I only ride on weekends as weekdays are too busy and the mornings are too cold,haha.
