As some here know, I am back in school again, taking a Modern Middle East course at a University in New Jersey, going part-time, I still work a full time job and have family obligations.
Anyway, I have a book report due Nov 7th, I haven't done a book report in almost 30 years! I also have 50 more pages of the textbook to read and a Mid-term this Tues. I haven't even begun reading the second book, for a second book report due in Dec.
So, here I am, with time, no family bothering me and I am on line typing this instead of doing what I have to do..........
Can you say PROCRASTINATION!!!!!! Yep, some things never change! |

Procrastination is like masturbation... in the end you're only screwing your yourself.
Good luck on your-- *haha* book report *haha*... |

That means you're a true student again. I think I procrastinate in every subject except for my music performance stuff. I don't know how you do it. Work full time and having a family seems like it would be overwhelming by themselves, but to add having classes. That's gotta be hard. |

I'd seriously have a mental breakdown with that pressure. I mean, I had many panic attacks just trying to get through the last few months of dreadful highschool.
So, you are obviously a lot better than me under stress. Just grab some Super Jolt, open that book, and read it. |

If you're feeling stressed I'd stay away from the super jolt. |

but it's more fun that way. . Jittering away and up for 2 nights straight, trying to focus on reading a book . . . I don't see anything wrong there. |

I hear ya! I'm done with school and building a practice, and I have a son who does independant studies. It's crazy cuz I live far from town so I have to plan my days around where he needs to be on any given day. I look at the laundry piling up and the floors (never look too closely at them when you visit me) and I think where the hell is that maid?! I really need one LOL. Peace,Robin |

OK, I have come to the conclusion that I just spent wayyyyyy to much time on my take home mid term exam. Prof said he wanted about 2 1/2-3 pages, if I double space mine will be about 6 1/2! So today I am going over and taking out about half of what I wrote!
As for the book report, good news, I read the book, bad news, I haven't written word one yet and its due Nov 7th! LOL
Kevin,you are right, this should be done with beer in hand, but since I am not a fan of beer, I just might resort to a glass of Pinot Greigo, not now of course, but when I do decide to start writing this. I don't think thats happening today, but maybe.
Why is it when daylight savings ends and we are supposed to get an extra hour of sleep, instead of getting more sleep, I get less? Last night total, 4 hours! And I will tell myself the same lie I always tell myself when I get no sleep, "tonight I will go to bed early." HA! |
