Now that college has a really free schedule compared to high school, it is often hard to motivate myself to study early and prepare for the exams that are far far away. The habit of procrastinating never went away since it has grown on me over the past 4 years of high school.. :P
Because of this bad habit of procrastinating, I often find myself busy cramming for exams a week before and when the exams come I usually don't do too well.. at least on the exams I've taken so far I didn't. Now I try to study with my study group every time the prof finishes teaching one lesson. Hopefully this way I'll be able to reduce the stress of workload before exams..
In a way I guess it's also because I load myself with a lot of activities like dancing, singing, and other random stuff. People might suggest that taking out those activities can reduce stress and give me more time to study. But I beg to differ. I NEED those stuff in my life to have fun. Yes I'll be busy and stressed but without those fun things to look forward to, college would be only about studying and that's one boring life I do NOT want to have. Sure, we should study hard and get good grades to prepare for our future. After all, in four years we will be heading out to the real world and probably join the workforce if we don't continue to grad school immediately. But I know that these opportunities to have fun are there for me to take.
I will try my best to balance fun and work, but I'll never give up either one because they are both equally important.
Are you a workaholic or someone who neglects work and only plays around?
I'm neither, but I kinda wish I could do both equally well.. :P
