I don't think I've ever made a serious new years resolution before in my life (because quite frankly I think they are a joke)but as I sit here writing my lab report up I realized something that I should fix and I don't think it will be too hard. It's a reasonable goal in my opinion cause I know if I made a resolution like "stop procrastinating" it is an unreasonable thing to ask me. Procrastination is so hardwired into my brain I doubt I could change my ways through willpower alone [Fuck you Dr. Phil, you Hack ;)]
So anyways my resolution is to not expose myself to alcohol on the night before the night before my work is due. The day before my assignments are due is the day I normally knuckle down and be quite efficient because I can feel the pressure and therefore have the motivation. Though I don't know if I've always been this way, I just started noticing it thins school year. The day after I drink, my body gets depressed *gasp* who'd of thought that taking a depressant would ever do that? so when my body is depressed it is very unmotivated and my life is put on slow motion and I don't get much done.
I was a good boy last night and made sure I wouldn't be hungover this morning (which I wasn't) but my body was depressed so it made doing the work become difficult. I think this same thing happened with the last lab report I handed in for this class.
So yeah this goal should help me continue to lead my procrastinating lifestyle and not suffer the consequences of an allnighter which I may be pulling tonight.
