Procrastination
Procrastination. It’s a word that came up for me today during a conversation I was having with someone and it made me think about how much I have been procrastinating lately. I have put off writing these posts for about as long as I can and it is starting to weigh heavily on me now. I am not sure why I put this extra stress on myself when I know that if I just got them done and out of the way I would feel much better and have more time to focus on my other classes but I always seem to wait until the last minute and then get completely stressed out over it. I am not a person that enjoys writing publicly or sharing what I am thinking and feeling but I will say that I just finished writing my Interpretative essay and I found it to be a very interesting assignment. I enjoyed writing that paper and trying to think and feel as the writer had while they wrote.

I think you are in good company with the procrastination issue. It seems many of us do the same thing. I think i procrastinate, because i perform better under pressure. BUT..that just may be what I think. Many of us seem uncomfortable with the writing process, but just like you said, I too was pretty happy with my Interpretive Essay. Now i need to work on my comma's. Hang in there , we are almost done.
ReplyDeleteI know exaclty what you mean I do the same thing and I am completely stressed. I mean, here I am making my first comment after my first post on here. 2 weeks left!!
ReplyDeleteAmen. That is so true. You know, do to my bad habit of procrastination, it's the very reason why I've always done adequate on essays. When you always wait until the last minute to do certain assignments, you are often unable to do the best you can do and could've done had you not waited so long. With so little time, there simply is no other time to complete assignments, unless you want to turn in late homework assignments.
