The Progression of a Procrastinating Perfectionist

"Procrastination is like a credit card: It's a lot of fun until you get the bill." - Christopher Parker

As I’ve began my junior year, I’ve come to realize I’ve been slacking a little. I tend to wait last minute to do papers, stay up long hours of the night studying and days writing TONS of things ‘to do’ in my planner. I’m fed up. I need to get it together. I’ve become procrastination at its finest, but I can honestly say this semester hasn’t been the kindest to me, though it’s been demanding and stressful - I am up for the challenge. But being a perfectionist doesn’t make this all that easy.

1. It begins with writing everything out you need to do in your agenda/planner; but to be honest it’s too much to handle in one day.

2. Then it becomes cleaning your room.

3. Then it becomes dancing to some music.

4. Then it becomes staring at your wall.

5. Then it becomes laying on your pillow.

6. Then you fall asleep.

7. And then it’s the next day.

8. And repeat.

I believe we all can get it together! I believe I will too…eventually! D;

Best of luck to all students throughout this following school year/or semester. We got this y’all!

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?

For the average 20-something, life moves pretty fast. You’ve got classes, friends, relationships, jobs, family, and whatever else we overcommit ourselves with.
