Aint Nobody Got Time For That!

5b) For one whole week, our professor asked us to record or day to day activities. We were to mark down the hours we spent studying, in class, getting ready, eating, sleeping, and outside the class room activities.



From my own personal recordings, I found I spent the most amounts of hours sleeping and the least was the amount of hours I work at the Wintergreen office here at Southern. I did not reach between thirty and forty hours’ worth of work outside the classroom. This is due to the fact that I haven’t received that much homework in any of my classes. Most of my work consists of either writing a one page paper which I find to be easy, or to just read chapters in our books. I personally believe I spent more time studying than I actually did doing homework.



 On the other hand, this could just be the result of only having one quiz that week and I didn’t have any major papers or projects due. Even though I did not have a lot of homework, that’s the one thing I always found myself procrastinating the most with. I had all the time in the world, but yet I would wait until the night before to get it all done for tomorrow. There have even been times were I finish my homework the morning of class! The reason for this was because I spent more time socializing with my friends and going out. To help with this for the weeks ahead I plan on trying to find a healthy balance between these two things. I know it would make my life a lot less stressful by not waiting for the last minute to do my assignment I just have to actually take that first step in order to do so. I plan on trying to complete my assignments right after class or in-between my classes, which would also give more time to socialize before and after my classes.
