homework
You mean I still have to study?
Okay, so I’m writing this to inspire myself. I have to kick it into high gear here, people. I’ve been living in this dreamland where I do a little homework, think about graduation, indulge in melodramatic sadness about leaving my friends, yawn my way through the day, and ignore the fact that I have so much to do I need to go above and beyond.
So… yes. I’m afraid the last week of my college career won’t be full of kite-flying and Gilmore Girls watching. Sadly, I must actually apply myself to these few remaining tasks. Of course, I am definitely going to make time to enjoy being with my friends, but if that’s the case, then I also have to apply myself diligently.
Which means: tonight, I need to get all three of my essays done. Tomorrow, I need to get my research project done. Saturday and Sunday need to be spent studying for my first exam. Monday and Tuesday will be spent finishing up some papers for Tuesday night and studying for my Wednesday exam. Wednesday, I’ll spend some time preparing for my (thankfully low-key) presentation on Thursday. Then I’ll be done! (We won’t mention the fact that I’ll have to spend Thursday packing and cleaning like crazy.)
No more procrastination! I need to finish strong! One more week! I don’t feel like I can do it, but I think I can…
One Page
Four years of making lists of the homework I have to do. The methods changed, but the substance didn’t.
I just made a list of all the homework I have left this semester, and it fits on one page.
One page, y’all!
I think I’m seeing the light. I can’t believe I accomplished everything (well, almost everything) on all those lists for all those years. See, this is why I’m glad I went to college. Sure, maybe I could have learned everything without the degree. But college pushed me like I never would have pushed myself.
So on to reality. 21 more tasks to complete before my homeworking days are over for the foreseeable future! (Until grad school, that is…) Woohoo!
