The 10 Truthful Qualities Of Every College Procrastinator

If you lookup the word procrastinator in the Google search bar on your computer, Vocabulary.com will tell you that it means: a person who delays or puts things off — like work, chores, or other actions — that should be done in a timely manner. So ask yourself, are you a procrastinator? If you are, then we are very similar and you know the biggest struggles of putting things off or taking your sweet time to get something done.

1. Paper due at midnight? No worries 11:55 pm is the best time to turn it in.


This may sound like a bit of an exaggeration, but sometimes us as procrastinators actually do this! Our brain needs time to decide what we want to do with out clustered thoughts.

2. You sleep in as long as you can.

The snooze button is one of our best friends.

3. Making up a reason of why we are procrastinating is part of being a procrastinator.

We claim other things to be more important or we were busy with something else insetad.

4. Concentration does not come easy.

No we do not have ADD, we just get distracted easily.

5. Listening to music while doing work, or having it be silent is a tough decision.

Changing the song, or singing along gets distracting an can be a set back for sure.

6. Just because we are told about something far in advance does not mean we will start on that task earlier.

Remember we are extremely "busy."

7. We are the type of people who do not need help, so do not bother offering us your insight on how we can manage our time better.

8. Its not that we are bad at time management. I mean after all we do get our stuff done on time, it just takes us a while.


9. Laundry will not be done until need be. This means we will wash it when we are down to our last pair of socks or underwear.


10. Most people say, "I will get to that later," for us procrastinators out there in the world, this phrase is way over used.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
