10 Thoughts Of A College Procrastinator
Writing Cooperative

1. This is not due for a week. I can do this later and take a nap now

.

If you love naps as much as I do, then this thought is constantly running through your mind instead of all the assignments that you have piling up on your desk.

2. What would happen if I didn't do this assignment?

There is always that one assignment that you just don't want to do. Not that it's hard, you just don't feel like putting in the effort to complete the assignment.

3. What would happen if I just didn't get out of bed today?

We all have that one class that we just hate going to. This thought comes to mind every time you have to go to that class and question yourself why you're in the class to begin with.

4. I still have 3 days to complete the assignment. I have loads of time!

While you still have time for that one assignment, you have others that are due the next day that you forgot to do, so you do those in a frantic panic instead of the one that is due in 3 days.

5. I wonder what show I should watch on Netflix?

While your ever-growing pile of assignments that you have are just sitting on your desk, the main question is what show you should binge-watch to forget about the assignments.

6. It's 2 days before the assignment is due. I totally still have time to do it!

There is still plenty of time to complete this assignment. I can continue my marathon of Netflix shows.

7. Night before the assignment is due: "WHY DID I WAIT TO COMPLETE THIS ASSIGNMENT!"

Okay time to start panicking and questioning why you put the assignment off, all the while still having no motivation to complete the assignment.

8. Can I drop out now?

We all ask this question whether we are working on an assignment or are getting ready for the class that you still don't want to go to.

9. I can still pass with one late assignment, right?

As much as this comes to your mind when you are working on an assignment, try to complete the assignment on time even if you are pulling all-nighters and internally crying.

10. Stays up until 4 am: "I am never doing this again!"

Finished assignment at 4:30 in the morning with 8 cups of coffee in your system. Lesson learned: never procrastinate on assignments!


*Repeats cycle on next assignment*

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
