I am Pro-crastination or for a little procrastination

Procrastination

Sometimes things just make you want to procrastinate. Like for example this weekend I have to study for a math and chemistry exam, do math homework, do a lab write up (which includes my procedure and equations), do chem. lab questions, read a spy novel and quiz studying for that novel, a paper revision and redo, take an online psychology quiz, read for psychology, read for British literature and on top of that try to clean my room and get to the gym. This is actually what most of my weekends look like this semester a constant, consistent homework rush. I made my semester pretty hard. If you go to college do not try taking all your hard classes at once thinking that your tough enough for the challenge.

Anyway enough of boring you with my schedule, I don't want to make any readers feel as overwhelmed as I am. But the point is that I realize that I only put off the things that stress me out. Not that I put all this stuff off but I want to. I think this is a tendency in all us human beings please correct me if I am wrong. But I feel like when the going gets too tough we just stop doing whatever is going on for a while.

I do not like procrastination but I do it. I would rather see everything done in a neat pile in front of me but if I just focused on that then I wouldn't have a life. I feel like for every time I go out and do some leisure activity, at the same time that is one point off of an exam or a problem missed or incorrect. Trying to fit the all specific knowledge needed for a hard job that lasts 40 years or more into just 4 years is pretty incredible if you think about it. For someone become a doctor or a nurse which is what I consider the hardest job just about all I can say is good luck. Anyways don't try to procrastinated too much people, but I'd say that a bit of procrastination is a good thing, a thing we all need.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
