Things I need to do in order to study adequately for midterms:
--finish reading Russian history reader
--review Russian history IDs
--review "In the Shadow of Revolution" summaries
--listen to recorded lectures for Russian history
--finish reading "In the Shadow of Revolution"
--review Russian history essay possibilities
--review passages discussed in Shakespeare class
--review notes for both classes
Is it a bad thing that this really isn't that much to do, and yet I have very little desire to do it all? Specifically, all the work for this Russian history class. I love the subject matter but it makes me nervous that 40% of my grade depends on this midterm. (Granted in the Shakespeare class it makes me nervous that I have no idea how much of my grade depends upon this midterm, but at least for that class we have two papers in addition to the midterm and final.) Oh, and I suppose for fiction, too. I don't want to write a short story. I don't think I've found one I can fall in love with. Sucks for me.
And yet this should not be difficult. I seriously have all the time in the world to do this stuff. So why is it that things still don't get done to the last minute? I didn't think I was that kind of procrastinator, but sure enough I haven't even done my laundry in a week and a half or cleaned up my impossibly messy desk and floorspace since moving back in. I don't like it. I just also don't like the idea of doing something about it.
