We all know what happens when you have tons of work piling up and you really don’t want to put forth the effort to get it done — you procrastinate. Since midterms season is quickly upon us and I will be forced to complete copious amounts of work that I have no desire to complete, I have put together the stages of procrastination in gif form!

Stage 1: The moment when you first get an assignment and decide to put it off until later.

Whatever, I’ll get it done eventually.

Stage 2: When the deadline is quickly approaching and you still don’t have the energy to get it done…

Ugh...

Stage 3: When you’re in the middle of doing something completely unrelated and it hits you...the assignment is due tomorrow!

Stage 4: The moment when you come home prepped to do your assignment and still don’t have the energy to get it done…

Stage 5: When you finally muster up some energy and complete your assignment!

Stage 6: After you B.S. the entire assignment and show up to class ready to hand it in...

Stage 7: When you’re finally done the assignment and you can relax… until the next assignment...

In all seriousness, good luck to everyone that has midterms or any other type of exam coming up. I know they can be super difficult and stressful for a lot of people, so try your best to get your work done early so you don't have to rush and complete your assignments so close to the deadline (like the nameless person in this listicle). Again, good luck with the rest of the semester and with completing all your work in a timely manner!
