There are things we should be getting done, but put off till the last minute? Yeah, it happens daily to us all.
1. Laundry day. You promise yourself you will wash your clothes every day until you reach into your underwear drawer and realize you will have to go commando that day. Not to mention all your LuluLemon is dirty.
2. Papers, studying for tests, homework, etc. These are definitely the situations where we find ourselves wandering campus looking for a place to study because the library is too crowded, leading you eventually to the ultimate decision that you will study tomorrow. Knocking back fifty Starbuck beverages in a row at 1 a.m. so you can meet the deadline on Blackboard is all-too familiar.
3. Asking a formal date. You wait until the week of to see how it is going with your crush for that month, because let's face it: relationships expire faster than milk these days.
4. Getting gas. This one you will regret the most when you are stranded on Highway 6 and everyone just so happens to “not be looking at their phone." Thank God for Austin and his taxi service.
5. Getting your hair done. You are getting ready to go out to the Square, and as you are drying your hair you see the distinct line of blonde versus brown staring you in the mirror. This could determine whether you hop back into bed with Netflix or not.
6. Getting up in the morning. That snooze button becomes your best friend and then, all of a sudden, it stabs your back with its knife. It is 8:05 a.m. and your butt is supposed to be sitting in marketing at 8 a.m. and you have definitely missed your ride on the OUT bus. So you roll in casually at 8:20 a.m. with your hair askew from sprinting across the grove and you get an evil glare from your professor. Don't forget to scan in.
7. Working out. You are feeling fat and happy from the srat/frat food, C-store on flex, and of course that late night chicken on a stick, until you put those flared jeans on from freshmen year and realize you have gained some pounds. It goes from one week to one month of putting off working out, until you convince yourself it just is not happening -- unless you are prescribed to Adderall and realize that diet works best. You then decide you will start running at Lamar Park when the weather is nice.
8. Dishes and trash. You let the dishes and trash pile up because college just does not allow time for cleaning. It gets almost unbearable until you and your roommates realize you are living like frat boys.
9. Getting some sun. When you slide into those cut off jean shorts for the next spring party and you look in the mirror and think, “What up, Casper?" Then, again, who wants to endure skin cancer. Embrace the paleness.
10. Locking the Vault. Waiting the last minute to purchase your sports tickets on your student ID could potentially ruin your social calendar. Not purchasing football tickets in time could add stress to your life because you will have to hunt down a ticket every week just so you can throw your fins up. We all seem to forget about it until our parents remind us. Luckily, basketball and baseball are freebies. It would just be awful if you had to pay to sit in right field.
