In all three of my colleagues papers the main point was that procrastination was the worst. The first paper was a paper that I helped look over and it was a good paper. He explains that in his blog that he " kind of regret not having any of it done for the first peer response, but that motivated me to kick it into high gear. I procrastinate a lot, even when I tell myself I shouldn't be doing that. " For me it was the same, I wish i had something to get looked over for the first peer response. I did "not really pay attention to the dead lines for the paper until Dr. Hamon said that we needed to have the entire paper done". That is from another student, I guess that I wouldn't say that I was not paying attention to the dates, but in the past the dates given at the beginning were not the same dates that we followed. I guess I assumed that they were not, even before trying to start a little just to get ahead. And lastly the last persons post I read, connects with me as well. They said that "work" was one of the biggest distractions. He goes on to talk about how his manager makes him work doubles. (ewh) I do not have a manager that makes me work doubles, but I do have a manger that does not believe in college. He is always wants us (the employees that are in school) to quit school and come work for him at any time that he wants. And for me that is not going to happen. I do not and WILL not being working there at a 35 year old women with hopefully kids. I have better goals I would say for myself. And get a good job with my education. Then they go on to say that "but the time i get home, i'd choose not to stay up". YES! I can agree, once you clock out and leave the place, especially if you are closing. I do not want to come home to do a bunch of work, but I know that I have to do it and get it done. It is just one of those things that you have to strive for, so that you wont be spending the rest of the life at a crappy job, that does not fit your plans.
