Just a Procrastinating Student Again...

The last week has been busy but frustratingly unproductive.

• I still don't have all of my student loans in place. This stems from the fact that I filled out all of my FAFSA information using my 2009 info and then realized that everything I put together for that is useless until summer school. Apparently, I need my 2008 tax info for the spring 2010 semester... and as much as I've been digging through the house, I haven't been able to find it. I sent the guy who does my taxes an email hoping that he keeps records, so hopefully I'll have this remedied soon.
• I've fallen behind in my classes (like I knew I would) and it has been a struggle trying to get caught back up. There's a ton of reading, and the research methods class is a killer if you're mathematically handicapped like me.
• Of the nine players on my basketball team, I had four come to practice Wednesday and only three on Thursday. Not only is that pathetic... it makes for four hours of my life that I could have spent doing more productive things (like catching up on classwork).
• And I have to end with a confession. Like always, when I feel like I'm overloaded, I have managed to make matters worse by taking breaks that are too frequent and too lengthy. Thus, as much as I want to complain about being so busy, the situation wouldn't be so bad if the procrastinator in me wasn't working so hard to show himself. Ironic, huh? Procrastinator... working hard... sorry, corny sense of humor...

On a brighter note, I have managed to start eating a bit healthier lately. I'm down five pounds now that I'm back on the old "diet." No fried food, no soft drinks, and eating cereal for snacks... it works. I did cheat and drink a 20 oz. Sun Drop yesterday, but otherwise I've been sticking to it for the last week or so.

Now that I've updated, it's back to working on blogger responses, forum posts, and short essays for my classes... wish me luck...
