Lesson Learned

Procrastination. If a person is usually a procrastinator, the sooner they get out of "this bubble", the better. College is all about time management and dedicating time to your work. Not putting everything to the last minute. 
Throughout my entire life, I have always set things to the last moment. In comparison to school, I knew that would have the chance to turn in my assignments late and get partial credit. But hey, at least I didn't get an 'F' on the classwork/ homework. Right ?
However, in the real world, in the college world, this such thing doesn't exist. The professors will not accept ANY late assignments at all. Both professors and staff expect us students to act like a grown ups, to take responsibility for actions and work. In college, you will be treated as an adult. 
It is time to transition from a kid to a grown up.
But are you ready ? What will it take for you to be ready for life && college ?
In my point of view, I am not ready. But I an striving for a better education and life. I know perfectly what I want and I will do anything I can, no matter how hard or impossible it may seem, in order to achieve that goal or dream. it won't be easy but I am a fighter.

  1. Daisy, your blog is looking really good!! I like that you wrote about procrastination. I rarely admit this to students, but I struggle with being a procrastinator too. :/
    I think a lot of people procrastinate as a way to protect themselves. If I did poorly on an essay that I just wrote at the last minute, I could always say "Oh well, I didnt really try". BUT if I fail at something I really put a lot of effort into, thats heartbreaking because I have to accept that my best wasnt good enough. I think this is true for a lot of people that procrastinate. We are trying to protect our fragile little egos :)
