I'm no fan of homework. Never have been, never will.
As I write this I have three impending assignments to complete, one due in two days, the others due in little over a week. I'm tired from the lack of sleep I get, firstly from staying up later than usual trying to complete them, and secondly, from not being able to get to sleep because I'm stressing all night.
It is a terrible cycle that I'm caught in. But I can't help bu think that it's my own fault. Perhaps that is partly why I'm contantly stressing and getting angry with myself. I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to complete my thousands of words that must be written.
It's quite a battle being a student I reckon. Juggling life, work and school. Assignments often take a back seat until they absolutely have to be done. I try to start early, but there's no pressure for me to do it, so I end up leaving it until the last minute and screwing up my sleeping patterns. Will I ever learn?
I like to take time out in between as well. Just to give my brain and fingers a bit of a break. But am I just procrastinating further? I think yes, but I'm going to say no, for arguments sake. I don't want to do sit through hours upon hours of work only to produce some mediocre piece that I'm not proud of. Resting for a few minutes could be the difference between a C and a B, or, here's hoping a B and a A.
I recently moved out of home. It's brilliant but tough on my wallet. Thus, working more is inevitable. In turn, this takes up more of my time, leaving less for my homework. Again my own fault, but I was doing okay. Until now. Maybe I'm just being melodramatic though. I've done it before and I'll do it again.
I'd love time to fly by to the mid-year break. Hopefully I'll be able to look back on this time and laugh at my petty worries. But for now, I've got an essay to write.
