Every day the work piles up. It starts to feel insurmountable, so rather than chipping away at that pile of works some of us students do the next best thing and decide to ignore the growing pile. We will watch Netflix and Hulu until our eyes hurt and we will actually go outside if it means playing Pokemon Go. Before we know it we realize that our due dates are looming and that pile of work turned into a tower that is ready to collapse upon us.

When we actually try to sit down to work, our minds are wondering back to the Netflix binges. We probably look like Spongebob as we stare at our unopened textbooks and our laptops trying to figure out where to start and what might take precedence. The cursor blinks. The writer's block entraps our minds. Our pens tap against our notebooks. And we still have nothing.

Maybe we need some inspiration. So we decide to go outside, but the sun, it burns our inside always and TV adjusted eyes. Plus, it's hot out. Now we go back in and we eye the bed. Oh man, that bed looks like heaven right now. The AC is on and it's kind of chilly in this room. We could do our homework while cuddled under the covers.

Our eyes are not getting heavy. They just hurt from looking at the laptop screen and book pages. Maybe if we close them for a second they will feel better. Man, that is a comfy mattress topper. Wow, that pillow feels so soft. We will just take a small nap. An hour tops. Then we will buckle down.

Our eyes open suddenly. What time is it? It cannot be eleven at night. Didn't we set our alarm? Well, it is a good thing that we got some sleep because it is looking it is going to be like an all nighter. The energy we did not have earlier to complete our work, surges through us. We may love our Netflix binges but we need our scholarship more. We turn on the lights. We sit up and we open our laptops and crack open those textbooks. We look at the syllabi so we can assure ourselves that we know which assignments we need to get completed.

It is five in the morning. We finished our paper and research assignment due during our classes today. We even have a small amount of time to get some more sleep. Even more time if we want to skip breakfast. When we are finally and officially awake and have gotten ready for class we go to print out our assignments. We get them printed and stapled. We walk to our class and we hand in our paper with pride that we even got it done. We tell ourselves that we won't make the same mistake again. No more procrastinating. But we all know that this is not the truth.
