You are lying if you say that you did not procrastinate at least a little bit. Us college kids will always get the job done eventually, but procrastination is always tempting to succumb to when studying for finals.
Here are 10 ways I procrastinated while studying for my finals this semester.
(don't try this at home)
1. YouTube
I'm such a sucker for YouTube. It's so easy to get wrapped up in with new videos constantly being released. I spent some solid hours watching David Dobrik instead of studying Marketing.
2. Long chats with friends
THIS is the kicker. My room has been deemed a black hole, because hours slip by like minutes. My roommates and I can chat for what feels like 30 minutes, but it ends up being 3 hours.
3. Car rides
Another one. Oops. My buddies and I drove around for wayyy too long during finals week listening to Without Me, Mona Lisa, and thank u, next. All on repeat. All during prime study time.
4. Online shopping
Do I ever buy anything? No. But it's a great distraction from homework!
5. Snacking
Hugeeee dark chocolate almond butter enthusiast.
6. Working out
This is a productive study break… right? I'd go work out just so I could avoid studying.
7. Target runs
Target is another black hole. I could easily spend a whole day in that place and never get bored.
8. Game days
If it's a Saturday in Athens, I'm not studying. That's just an unspoken rule.
9. Christmas decorating
I LOVE Christmas decorations. They make a room look so much happier, and I'm about it.
10. Netflix
I'm usually tempted more by YouTube, but Grey's Anatomy is a great way to put off studying! (It's kind of educational?)
Look, this makes me look bad, but I swear I studied. Even though I did procrastinate here and there ;)
Happy studying to everyone still grinding on finals! You got this!
