~The Refusal to do Homework~

I just hate that moment when you look at your schedule/planner, whatever you call it, and you see the niiiiiiiiiiiice list of homework written in there. And I'm one of those people who leave every single piece of homework to the last minute. I was actually so good this week--completing homework a few days before the due date, rather than the night before.

I guess the reason for this is the fact that I have no self control--if I know that I have time to do something, I take it. And I know that if I have a week to do homework then it would be clever to start working on it and spend the whole week on it for maximum quality. Well, no. That's the opposite of me. I get a piece of homework, thinking: Oh, come on, I have ages to do this.

And then before I know it it's nearly a week later and I still haven't done it.

It's the story of my life.

I guess this works for me though--this way I don't over-work myself or work too little. I know a few people who get a weeks worth of homework, (well, for me anyways) and they do it all on the weekend--in two days! For me, weekends are for relaxing and doing whatever I enjoy, not working. I know that I have to do some work sometimes, but not work so much that by the time I've finished my homework, the weekend is over.

And plus, every Friday, I get this delightful sensation, knowing that I get two full days rest. This is especially nice since Friday is my busiest day of the week. After that final bell rings, I forget about homework. And then painfully start thinking about it again on Sunday afternoon.

And actually do it at about eight o'clock if it's needed for Monday.

Another thing that's different about everyone is the fact that they like different work environments. I'm one of those people who hate silence. I just can't work in silence or write my blog posts in silence, or draw in silence, or even message people in silence. I always have my headphones plugged in and rdio (check it out--it's really awesome for listening to free music online) turned on.

Some people have to have silence in order to fully concentrate. That just proves how different people really are. When I'm doing things in silence, I just get really paranoid I guess. Music helps me to relax and concentrate. Meh, that's just how it is for me.

Day Three~ A Song That Makes Me Happy

Science & Faith~ The Script




Okay, first of all, The Script are my favorite, favorite, favorite band in the whole world. They have been for quite some time now. And I love all of their songs. But, Science and Faith in particular, is just. . . . . such a personal favorite of mine. It makes me feel so good about life, puts a smile on my face and gives me goose bumps every time I listen to it. It's just a work of art I think. And I discovered it during such a happy time in my life, which is why it always makes me feel so positive about everything.
