1. I should have started studying earlier.

2. Maybe I can stay up all night.

3. What is the lowest grade I can get to keep an A?

And you procrastinate by calculating the exact number of questions you can miss.

4. What about a B?

This may be a bit more reasonable.

5. C?

At this point, you don't even care.

6. I need caffeine.

7. I can study in the Starbucks line.

8. Maybe I should clean my room instead.

And by clean, you mean reorganize your closet and everything.

9. I could just drop out of college.

10. I could learn how to play an instrument and earn money on the streets

11. I could get four hours and 17 minutes of sleep if I went to bed right now.

But you end up falling asleep studying anyway.

12. Do you think my professor would accept a sick note?

Even though it's not on the syllabus, they might make an exception...

13. "Does anyone want to get food?"

Asked in every group message on your phone

14. Surely they'll curve the scores.

It's a long shot, but maybe, just maybe.

15. I can't be the dumbest in the class. There's someone who knows less than me, right?

16. If I sleep with my textbook under my pillow, it's studying through osmosis.
