The 7 Stages Of Procrastination

Do I HAVE to finish my essay...?

We all know what happens when you have tons of work piling up and you really don’t want to put forth the effort to get it done — you procrastinate. Since midterms season is quickly upon us and I will be forced to complete copious amounts of work that I have no desire to complete, I have put together the stages of procrastination in gif form!

Stage 1: The moment when you first get an assignment and decide to put it off until later.


Whatever, I’ll get it done eventually.

Stage 2: When the deadline is quickly approaching and you still don’t have the energy to get it done…

Ugh...

Stage 3: When you’re in the middle of doing something completely unrelated and it hits you...the assignment is due tomorrow!

Stage 4: The moment when you come home prepped to do your assignment and still don’t have the energy to get it done…

Stage 5: When you finally muster up some energy and complete your assignment!

Stage 6: After you B.S. the entire assignment and show up to class ready to hand it in...

Stage 7: When you’re finally done the assignment and you can relax… until the next assignment...

In all seriousness, good luck to everyone that has midterms or any other type of exam coming up. I know they can be super difficult and stressful for a lot of people, so try your best to get your work done early so you don't have to rush and complete your assignments so close to the deadline (like the nameless person in this listicle). Again, good luck with the rest of the semester and with completing all your work in a timely manner!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
