Most people procrastinate doing there homework. I mean that they wait till 10PM the night before it is due to start working on it. I use to be in this crowd. I realized that I did not like always worrying if I was going to get everything done in time. I much rather get it done, so I don’t have to worry about it. Some people I know have to pull all-nighters regularly to get there work done because they procrastinate. I was never that bad though, I don’t think I have ever pulled an all-nighter. You were not using your time very well if you have to stay up all night to get it done.This semester has been my worst semester at Purdue so far. I have to do home work for many hours everyday including weekends. By the way I am only taking 16 credits. I think it is so bad though because I am taking 3 classes with labs that require me to work on the labs for about 5 hours outside of class each week. This semester I find myself doing homework up to 6 days ahead of time because I know I have so much to do. If I did not do it ahead of time, I would not be able to get it all done. I find myself having to do some work frequently till 12 or 1am. I also have to do some work on Friday nights, and Saturday and Sunday days, my traditional relaxing times.
What really worries me is that this semester I taking 16 hours and next semester I am taking 18 hours, so I can graduate on time. Next semester I have three classes that will have labs as well with out side of class time spent on labs. I am not sure how I am going to get everything done next semester. I might have to cut things out like watching my favorite TV shows. Also as a note, I fell stressed by all the work now and I don’t really have TV distractions yet, since most shows have not started yet. Some people might say I am just bitching, but the time I am spending is just on the class work, this does not include, reading or studying.

I am one of those people who is big on procrastinating. Normally I wait til about 1 am the night before to start my homework. On Tuesdays I have bio lab, which always has a ridiculous amount of work associated with it. For class this past week I had to write up a 6 page lab report from the lab we did thw week before, and I also had to write 23 flowcharts for this lab. It was insane. I ended up turning in around 20 sheets of paper for a single class. I finished the lab write up on Monday night and, since I was so tired, decided to do the flowcharts Tuesday morning. Bad idea. I accidently overslept by about two hours and missed part of my first class. The only real break I have on Tuesdays is only an hour long, so I had to try and write 23 flowcharts in that time frame. I actually completed about 19 of them. I probably will not wait to start on homework for this class until the night before ever again.
