Coming Up With Articles Ideas Is Easy, But Actually Writing Them Can Be Hard

Considering I have been trying to decide on an article topic for the entire week, I am going to write a string of ideas that I had that seemingly went nowhere and have no substance to create a written piece about.

Coming Up With Articles Ideas Is Easy, But Actually Writing Them Can Be Hard

Writing an article every Friday is very rewarding. Having an entire week to decide on an idea, take about one or two days to think of how to approach the idea, and then set out about an hour to write and edit the piece to my liking, and finally submit the writing for revision and hope that our editors enjoy my five-hundred word article about what most likely revolves around Niall Horan or "Life Lessons" (I'm only nineteen and I have learned very little of what life actually means, thus far) or Internet-related topics.

Winter Break at UCF allowed me to travel the four hours home to Cape Coral for the week of Christmas and I didn't focus on prepping articles for upcoming weeks (as I try to do), and getting back to working retail with the return season of holiday consumers and guests and failing to organize my bedroom like I have been promising myself I would accomplish for a week , I haven't focused on an article idea, once again.

Here I am, at 11:00 P.M. on Friday, with my article due in one hour, and I have absolutely nothing written.

Am I disappointed? Yes. Am I surprised? No.

But, instead of writing an article about something fake that I actually didn't take any time to think about and contemplate, I am going to write a string of ideas that I had that seemingly went nowhere and have no substance to create a written piece about.

Happy Reading!

Here we are, with a giant list of ideas that my brain has been accumulating but I have failed to write about. Have I started these articles? One of them! Do I plan on writing on those ideas? Maybe! Do I think the articles will be coming soon? Probably not!

I have the worst case of procrastination in the entire world, but I work spectacularly under pressure.

PERFECT EXAMPLE: I have now finished this article and it is 11:57 P.M.

Concluding, I suck at writing about the ideas in my head, but I know that my anxiety to work under pressure will save me.

So, thank you for reading this monstrosity.

See ya soon!

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.
