Procrastination....

Soooo I have a paper due in Western Civ on Monday. I decided to start it today. It's supposed to be 1500 words. I am currently on word number 945. I have been on that word number for a loooong time. I got done answering the first part of the question, so I decided I could take a little internet break. That turned into a really long break. It got dark outside while I was taking my little break. And I am sick of sitting in this chair and staring at this computer. Why don't I just finish it and be done? I don't know. Why am I blogging right now instead of just getting it over with? I don't know. I know what I'm going to say, I just lost all motivation to finish it. The longer this break has gone on, the less motivation I have.

On another note: today is Veteran's Day. I love veterans. So much. I take being an American for granted a lot, but when I am consciously thinking about it, I get very patriotic. We are so blessed. So so blessed. And I adore every person who has sacrificed to give us the wonderful lives that we have. Last year I went to Arlington on Veteran's Day. That was so incredible. I wanted to go again this year, but I skipped class on Monday so I didn't feel like I could skip again today. That was so cool though. If you get a chance, go to Arlington on Veteran's Day. Or any other day of the year. I love that place. It's impossible to come out of there without a greater appreciation for veterans and this country. Love it.

Okay, I am going to finish my paper now....maybe....

P.S. I was stressed today because it's 11/11/11 and everyone was saying how this is the only time ever that this will happen so make the most of it. How do I make the most of it? What are you supposed to do to commemorate something like that? Well, I spent my 11/11/11 sitting in my hard chair, staring at my computer. Definitely made the most of it.
