"When you have expectations, you are setting yourself up for disappointment." - Ryan Reynolds

1. When you get that burst of feeling productive

OK! I am going to do this!

2. Preparing yourself to finish your homework

Yep, this is happening. I'm going to change who I am.

3. Feeling yourself lose motivation

Send help.

4. It's dinner time, I can take a break for that

I guess I could watch a quick show while I eat.

5. Realizing you've finished five seasons and it's a whole new day

Where did the time go?

6. Finding out someone already finished the homework one day after it was assigned

I could never, but well done.

7. When it's 11 and the deadline is at 12, but you haven't done anything

Goodbye good grades, we had a good run.

8. Trying to find even the slightest bit of motivation

Get it together, man. There's still time to save your grade.

9. Thinking about all the other things you could waste your time on

I spend more time thinking about not doing homework than actually doing it. Sometimes.

10. Submitting something at 11:59 and then realizing it's all a bunch of crap

Well, I tried.

Kind of tried.

Okay, I could have done better.

11. Getting a good grade from your most procrastinated project

Glad I didn't change who I am.

"I think you have to let go of this idea that you can be precious about everything, and let it be the abstract mess that it is." ~ Ryan Reynolds

Well said.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
