The life of a college student who surprisingly cares about her grades.
I'm an incredible procrastinator but I get am immense feeling of accomplishment when I check something off that stupid list of mine.
I've started a list of things I have to for the rest of the semester. Luckily it's only 10 items long right now. Unfortunately, each of those items are something like "write a really long, stupid paper that you have had all semester to do (and oh yeah, it's due tomorrow)" or "study for a test you have to make an A on even though you haven't made above an 80 on any of the other ones this semester".
BUT... I write the list on a piece of bright colored paper and spend at least ten minutes decorating it all pretty-like so that when I look at it I don't feel so much like crawling into bed and pulling the covers over my head.
It also helps me to make detailed outlines of papers and get the satisfaction out of blue highlighting each section as I get it done. It's the little things.....
I have no clean clothes, no gas, no groceries, and no money! Yay!
