My current Facebook status says, “Procrastination Station is located in Butler #128 just FYI.”
I do not want to study tonight. No sir. I just wish I could be carefree for a few weeks away from school and work. If I could drive home to Houston right this second and spend time with my mom without any worries, I’d do it in half of a heartbeat. I just need a mental break. That’s all. Is that too much to ask?
My heart has been heavy as of late. Prayer is constantly leaving my lips for the hurting people I have in my life. I have a lot of those sorts of people around me right now. It makes me want to just drop everything and go help them. The hard part is I can’t. It’s not possible. Between my 16 semester hours and my j-o-b I can do nothing. Actually there is one thing I can do and do well: pray. I’ve been doing just that all week.
As any seasoned college student knows, 16 semester hours is a lot for anyone. I’m enjoying the challenge because all of those hours are making me take school more seriously and put my j-o-b on the backburner for a while. I needed to do that and get my priorities straight. I’ve done well in my classes thus far and even made an “A” on my first chemistry test last Tuesday. Boy was I excited! It took a lot of effort on my part, but I’m willing to put forth that effort for rewards like that. Nothing feels better than seeing you hard work pay off academically.
I’m still contemplating whether or not to stay at this school next year or go home to Houston. My mind changes daily, so I’m praying God gives me a sign or peace with a decision soon.
In lieu of studying and following my procrastination theme, I’ve updated my playlist for your listening pleasure. Turn up the volume :)

I did 16-20 hours of university a week, plus a weekend job, and it was HARD! I totally get how you feel as well as working.
Hang in there sweets, your doing amazingly well!
Good luck with your 16 hours!! I remember when I was taking classes last semester, one class was worth 12 hours and it was by far the hardest class I've ever taken. My other classes added up to 17 hours. It's tough stuff, but you'll do it!!

I'm with you on the procrastination thing. Last semester I took 18 hours and also worked 2 part-time jobs, and had field experience hours every week, AND tutored on campus. I thought I was going to lose my mind and as detrimental as it was to my level of productivity, procrastination was definitely a regular part of my routine.
I will be praying for you as you make your decision concerning school, and also as you pray for all of those hurting people in your life.
God bless you! <3
