Yes, Even With The Last Class, I Am Procrastinating

Yes, Even With The Last Class, I Am Procrastinating

I always try my best not to procrastinate, but sometimes it just happens.This past week was my last week at SNHU. I only have one more assignment, and I am completed.Usually, that would be enough to motivate me to knock it out, but I am finding it difficult to manage my time this week. Typically, I try to finish my assignments early, so I have more free time to either take a break or to go ahead and prepare for the next class.

After this assignment, I am done.No more finals to prepare for, no more last-minute discussion boards to post to, and no more replies to complete before Sunday. I mean, if I go for my master's I will have more of that, but I am planning on taking a break from school for a bit.
I want to focus on my family.

In my journey with SNHU, I have accomplished so much. I am now a mother, an EIC with the Odyssey, and I am in the process of writing three novels. I am happy with where I am, no matter how difficult the journey has been. The journey has made me who I am today.

So, I am going to finish this last assignment, and nervously wait for my final grade to post. I am excited to see where this new chapter in my life takes me. I know the possibilities are endless, and there are going to be times I fail, but I know that no matter what, my husband and son has my back.

With this new chapter in my life, I am going to strive to be a better wife and mother. My husband and son deserve that. I feel sometimes I have gotten wrapped up in doing homework and meeting deadlines, and I forget who I need to focus on. I am looking forward to the quality time I will be having with my family.

I want to thank Johnny, my husband, for always being there to love and support me through everything. You are the best husband in the world. I am so thankful to have you in my life. You make me so happy. I love you so much.

Johnathon, I am proud to be your mother. You make me happy no matter what is going on. Keep on being mommy and daddy's happy boy. You have so much to offer the world, and I cannot wait to see all you accomplish in life. You can do anything you put your mind to.

Also, I will be working harder as an editor.
I strive to do my best, and with any job, it is important to do the best you possibly can. I love being an editor. It is hard work, but it is so rewarding. I am thankful to have a job I enjoy.

Okay, no more procrastinating. Let me get this reflection done, so all I have to do is look forward to whatever life throws my way. I am ready.

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.
