Stress

I have a habit of procrastinating. This can lead to a lot of unnecessary stress. I am in the middle of taking my comprehensive exams for graduate school. I have three weeks to write 3 papers. I should have pretty much finished them this week because I was on Spring Break and planned on focusing on the papers all week. But having the bad habit of procrastination didn't help me. I still have lots of work left to do on the papers. I should have learned my lesson long ago that procrastination doesn't pay. The next few weeks are going to be intense. Maybe next time I will do better.

I understand the stress procrastination can bring--I've been there one too many times myself. Good luck with your papers! I know you can do it!

You've just described me perfectly. Ha ha! Good luck with everyhing! You'll be fine, I'm sure. I think most procrastinators are that way because they know they can handle all that last-minute stress. ;)

You'll make it through, and perhaps taking a little break for youself is a good thing. Good luck and press forward, right? I know I was thankful to have Clark take a few days off. You are almost through!
