Confession #2

I'm a HUGE procrastinator.

Those of you who know me may find this confession rather strange, but trust me. I don't know how NOT to procrastinate. A teacher gives me an assignment weeks in advance, and I'll still be up all night the night before it's due trying to finish. I can't count how many times I've fallen asleep during one of these all nighters only to wake up in the morning in a panic to ask my mom if she'll excuse me from that class because my project wasn't finished. Usually, she took compassion on me and did, but now that I'm heading off to college, I don't know what I'm going to do.

The reason I mention this is because school starts in a week. And I have an entire book to read, and a five page paper to write on it. Not a big deal, right? I can fit that in somewhere between goodbye parties, packing, working, cleaning, trying to find a job, and moving, right? Especially if I promise myself not to get on Facebook, right? (Which yes, I did, and yes, which I haven't done so far.) The only problem is . . . Now I spend all my time doing other pointless things. Like . . . Blog. Speaking of which, you may have noticed, this is my third post for today.

Just ask me if I've read three pages of my book today. You won't like the answer. And neither will I when I'm up all night right before school to finish what should have been finished weeks ago.
