In the year 2011 I want to become more productive. I want to stay on top of my homework load, study more often, and do some of the less important things I enjoy.
In the past I haven't been the best with staying organized. I start the school year out with new sharp pencils, neat stacks of paper and everything put where it belongs, but as the year progresses I become a slob. My bag is a war zone and my lack of writing utensils is disheartening. I often lose important papers and wrinkle the ones I manage to hang on to. My grades are wonderful for a month or two but then they start to slip. I let things slide and procrastinate uncontrollably. I don't want that to happen this year! I want to get back in control.
I'm going to start writing down every assignment I get and its due date, and I wont cross it off until it's completely finished. On the nights I don't have very much homework I'm going to study so the material stays fresh in my mind.
When I've accomplished every last bit of my homework I want to do more meaningful things. Instead of spending my free time watching TV, I want to start writing again. Not for school but for me, and I want to read more. Lately I've been in a book funk. I've read everything I have three or four times and I need a new adventure. What happened to all the books about heroic quests and battles? Now all you can find are depressing, sappy vampire books! I also miss my art. I haven't drawn almost anything this year. I'm so swamped with homework and then zoning out after doing the homework that I have no time for the things I enjoy. This year will be different though. I'll stay organized and wont let things pass me by. This year I'm gonna do the things that make me feel good!
Good for you!
