Sometimes you just really don't want to study for that test or even that quiz. You pretend you will and you even sometimes get as far as pulling out your study guide and your notes but then basic fear takes over and you turn to one of the many potential distractions you know will save you for maybe five minutes. It's okay though, because we all do it. These are 17 ways you love to distract yourself when it's time to do school.

1. Raid your fridge.

2. Decide to go get yourself food when you realize you don't have any and decide it's crucial that you eat something before you start actually doing anything.

3. Make sure you hit every red light so it takes even longer.

4. Pick a location that's farthest from your house.

5. Spend 20 minutes parking even though you have a driveway.

6. Finally, you get home and you're ready to start but then you decide to take a social media break.

7. But when you realize how tired you are you figure it's time to take a nap to gather the energy to truly begin.

8. Fast forward a couple hours and when you wake up, you decide you need to eat again obviously.

9. Okay. Enough of that. It's time to get serious. You sit down and you have all your notes and you're ready to go when you realize you can't concentrate in your room so you decide to move.

10. You get to the kitchen but you can't study there either so you have to go to the living room.

11. You're in the kitchen. It's gonna happen. But... then you have to eat again.

12. Your notes are staring at you and your time is wearing thin so the feeling of being overwhelmed consumes you and you sit down and you're really doing it. But then you realize you need to organize your highlighters.

13. The highlighters are organized and all is well. So, here we go....but what about the pens?

14. Organization is important. You think you're really ready now-oh another social media break.

15. Your phones already out so why not text someone, too?

16. It's not still pointless. There's still hope. Just keep trying. You can do it. But before you do maybe you should eat one more time.

17. Nevermind. It's basically pointless now.
