I get writer's block all the time and I'm always procrastinating on everything! So when I couldn't think of this weeks article idea I decided to write it on how my mind operates through the week. I know all the other Odyssey people can totally relate to this!

1. I just submitted the last article I'm good till Wednesday.

Giphy

No, you're not good till Wednesday.

2. It's the weekend I really should think about article ideas and get ahead.

Giphy

Yes, you should get ahead!

3. I'm too tired I'll do it tomorrow.

Giphy

You're always tired, do it now!

4. Tomorrow is Wednesday!

Giphy

I told you to get it done sooner

4. I'll do it tonight.

Giphy

No you won't

6. I'll do it Wednesday morning.

Giphy

No, you also won't do that either.

7. It's due in an hour and I have nothing typed!

Giphy

At this point, I'm not surprised.

8. I submitted it just in time and now I can go nap until next Wednesday.

Giphy

The cycle just continues, I'll see you again next week.

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?

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'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.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. 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. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
