As we all know, finals season is in full swing and college students across the country are eyeballs deep in work. I am no exception: six courses and 19 credits do not make for an easy finals week schedule. I have had papers, tests, presentations and evaluations to complete, sometimes all four for one class. However, I am a procrastinator extraordinaire and have managed to put all of my work off until literally the day before it is all due. How have I been spending my time, you ask? Well ...
1. Decorating my apartment for Christmas
2. Doing dishes eight times a day, even if there is just one spoon in the sink
3. Drinking copious amounts of coffee for no other reason besides the taste
4. Cleaning out the fridge of all the expired healthy food that we said we were going to eat but never did
5. Making to-do lists and then never actually doing anything on them.
6. Writing this article
7. Catching up on "New Girl" episodes that I missed
8. Re-watching "The Office" for the eighth time
9. Hosting a party
