The daily struggle of trying to find motivation in the morning is my fatal flaw. My bed is more inviting than any activity I could possibly want to do. Given the opportunity, I will sleep until 3:00 p.m. (it's a proven fact!) Apparently that's frowned upon by society, though. Therefore, I find myself telling myself the same things every day before dragging myself out of bed.

1. "5 more minutes, really!"

Or maybe 10... OK, 15... how about 30?

2. "Well, maybe I'll just skip my 9:00 a.m."

I'm sure I can catch up on one lesson of microeconomics, right?

3. "A queen is never late. They'll wait for me"

Fashionably late is the best way to go.

4. "I'm not really that hungry, I don't need to get breakfast."

A granola bar will probably hold me over for the next four hours.

5. "I think I'm sick"

If I think about it hard enough, my throat hurts and it would just be immoral to get my classmates sick.

6. "This is cruel and unusual punishment and I am not having it"

What did I ever do to deserve the horrifying screech of an alarm clock?

7. "I'll get up as soon as I'm done looking through Instagram..."

...And Twitter and Facebook and Snapchat and Vine and Yik Yak and the weather and maybe the App Store?

8. "The professor doesn't even take attendance, why am I going?"

Everything I need to know, I can learn from the textbook.

9. "If I don't go to my first class, I'll be so much more well rested for my second class."

My second class requires more attention and I would be more prepared for it.

10. "It's so cold! I should huddle under the covers for warmth."

No amount of clothing will keep me as warm as my blankets are right now.

11. "I can't leave! The sheets have just started to accept me as one of their own!"

And if I leave, I'll never gain their trust.

12. "When is Spring Break?"

Oh it was last week? Darn.
