From The Procrastinator Who'd Rather Do These 15 Things Over Picking Up A Textbook

I'd honestly rather bathe my cat.

Sarah Holliman

Being in college is hard. In most classes, it takes a lot of effort as a student to achieve a decent and passing grade. I’m almost positive that I’ve been told by every single one of my professors not to put assignments off. I tell myself that this week will be different, but it never is. Here is a condensed list of all the things I’d rather do than read my textbook.

1. Watch cute cat videos.

I love all cute animals, but I could watch cat videos all day! They are such smart creatures, but they’re not always that bright. Everyone knows someone with a crazy cat.

2. Find better memes.

Caption this, okay go! My boyfriend is constantly sending me new funny memes. I try to stay a step ahead of him at all times.

3. Scroll through every single social media account I have.

I know I can’t be the only one who will stay on Facebook for hours just to put off studying. I can for real go from watching a touching dog/owner reunion to watching a slow loris eating a rice ball.

4. Play my online farm game.

I get a reward for every solid hour of playtime, and so far I’ve been awarded 82 of those. While I’m playing my farm game, the time is not displayed on my screen so I really have no idea how long I’ve been playing until I manually look to see what time it is.

5. Watch "American Idol" audition videos.

I enjoy watching the audition rounds. Some people think that they’re going to blow the judges out of the water, but it’s the ones who have no idea how talented they are that make the show worth it.

6. Search me on Google.

Has anyone else ever done this? I like to see what actually pertains to me, because most of it pertains to another Sarah Holliman who is an older blonde. Crazy that there are so many people out there with the same name.

7. Give my cat a bath.

Her face is the only caption I need here.

8. Take selfies with my cat.

Cricket deserves all the pets. She also loves to cover up my double chin for me.

9. Go walking with my dog.

Basil is the best boy who deserves all the walks. I don’t always want to leave my bed, but I try to make sure he gets exercise when the weather is nice.

10. Take selfies with my dog.

He may not act amused here, but he actually likes having his picture taken.

11. Take naps.

Cuddling with my best boy>>>anything school related. He makes it so hard to leave for class every morning.

12. Hang out with my friends.

I’d much rather have great conversation and fun times with my friends than study. I value my relationships more than my future at times, and that can be a problem.

13. Travel anywhere else and not come back.

I just want to see everything there is to see in the world. If I could take a few years off of everything and just travel, I would be so happy. Just look at this bench next to a freaking mountain. One day I could say that I sat on that very bench.

14. Clean out my closet.

Seriously, I don’t know why I do this, but for some reason, I would rather clean out my closet at 3 a.m. than study anything in my textbooks. I will find just about anything to do before I’ll actually sit down and study.

15. Fall off a cliff.

This is a joke, but still. You can’t spell “studying” without “dying.”

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
