I leave for college in sixteen days. I have done nothing.
I haven't started packing. I haven't bought a raincoat or a shower caddy. I haven't mentally prepared myself for the insane complications or the incredible experiences. I think I'm in denial.
I guess it still hasn't hit me that I'm leaving. I keep telling myself that I'll pack as soon as I clean my room. Then I wake up in the morning and think, "Ugh, I'm much too tired to clean. Plus it'll take a whole twenty-four hours to straighten out this catastrophe, and I have to work today! I'll do it tomorrow." Seriously, those are my thoughts verbatim. I'm a master procrastinator, in case anyone was wondering...
I just feel like I still have all this time. I was actually going to borrow money from my friend the other day and thought to myself, "It's fine, I'll pay her back. Even if it's after school starts back. I have time." Then I quickly slapped myself in the back of the head (mentally, of course) and reminded myself of the fact that she is not attending the same school I am and if I forget to pay her back before school starts back (I forget things...a lot) then she may very well never get the money. It's sad.
I have a funny and completely random story. I was reading my last post again right before writing this one and saw the part at the end about aliens changing my password. They must have because I just had to go through the obnoxiously tedious process of "Forgot My Password." Those darn aliens...
Anyway. I'm going to end this post with a vow. I promise to at least BEGIN cleaning my room tomorrow. I have to wake up early for an orthodontist appointment anyway, so I won't have the "I'm just so tired, I think I'll just roll over instead..." excuse. That one is also pretty common. What can I say...procrastination is an extremely hard habit to break. And I had a LOT of practice in high school.
