You have to admit, at some point in your life, you have procrastinated doing something you really need to do. Whether it be taking out the trash, putting off that 10 page essay until the night before, or washing that pile of clothes that are growing into its own person.

1. Pushing it off

You know that you have a whole 6 weeks to complete that essay so whats the point of starting now. Your favorite episode of Grey's Anatomy is on.

2. Realizing you have been procrastinating all day.

Sometimes you feel like you are just one big unproductive mess. The last time you procrastinated, you swore you would never do it again

3. You repeatedly go back to the refrigerator swearing every time you'll get started after you get through eating

Just after this bag of chips. I PROMISE!

4. Then you finally pick up the book and you remember you have to Snapchat someone back before you start

But it is IMPERATIVE that I send Johnny back an "lol" back to his Snap. But then Heather just messaged me back on Facebook so I'll just respond back to her really quickly.... 5 hours later....


5. The week your assignment is due

But you still have until Sunday at midnight to submit it though

6. When you've been purposely been trying to forget the assignment and you now really forgot about it

SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT! Why do I keep doing this to myself!

7. So you FINALLY put all of the foolery aside and start

*Writes name and date* Me: SO ACCOMPLISHED! I AM PROUD OF YOU!

8. Yeah right, keep fooling yourself

Ohhhhh well... there's always next time

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
