Keeping Up With The Procrastinator

The Kardashians illustrate the weekly grind of college students that love to put work off.

Keeping Up With The Procrastinator
Online Learning TIps

In college, over time, I have accepted the fact that stuff just doesn't get done like it used to. Constantly being surrounded by your friends while you drown in piles and piles of work comes with its own set of challenges-- especially if you are a procrastinator. Procrastinating is exponentially increased in college and makes for stressful, sleepless weeks. However, I wouldn't trade them for the world. With a little help from the Kardashians, here's what the perpetual sleepless week of a procrastinator looks like.

1. Monday you drag yourself to your first class.


2. Opening your agenda and realizing this is going to be a long week.


3. Skipping the library and choosing to do your homework later.


4. Waking up on Tuesday and realizing you have so much to do and accomplished nothing Monday.


5. Finally hitting the library.


6. Getting distracted, going to get food after only 30 minutes in the library.


7. Setting up home in the library till 2 a.m.


8. Waking up Wednesday after a late night.


9. Telling your friends you need sleep and absolutely will not go out.


10. Proceeding to go out.


11. Coming home.


12. Waking up Thursday.


13. Dragging yourself to class Thursday with your eyes half open.


14. Realizing you have barely studied for your test Thursday.


15. Pulling an all-nighter to study.


16. Promising yourself you'll catch up on sleep this weekend.


17. Walking out of taking the test.


18. Being half ready to go out and half ready to crash.


19. Going out anyway.



20. Getting home late, promising you'll get work done Saturday.


21, Waking up at 2 Saturday.


22. Procrastinating all day.


23. Going out again despite all the work you put off.


24. Waking up Sunday morning staring at the pile of work you have to do.

25. Promising yourself you will never procrastinate again, yet letting the whole cycle repeat itself next week.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
