Time Strategies

Time management has always been a struggle of mine. I find myself procrastinating on a lot of my assignments and I end up doing them the day before they are due. In fact, I am doing that right now as I type up this post. 

The previous sentence and this sentence were typed an hour a part so now I hope you can understand what I mean.

Luckily my chronic procrastination does not affect my grades or coursework in a negative way, and I've learned how to work with it in order to be successful! I am a little concerned about this semester only due to the amount of classes I have. Not including this class, I have 4 other courses that require heavy reading so I am currently figuring out which classes I can sacrifice because there is no way I can do it all.  

Looking in the near future I realized I am going to struggle most with procrastination and being overworked so I read the articles "Four Questions to Help You Overcome Procrastination" and "The Myth of 'Too Busy'".

These articles did give me some sound advice and I hope they will help me succeed in all of my courses this semester!

I have always loved animals ever since I was a kid. I have a hamster named Pepper and she is the cutest little thing you will ever see!  My hamster, Pepper. Taken by me  Back in the day I was legally known as Ян Александрович Васалив. A little fun fact about me is I was adopted! I was born in   Pskov, Russia, and given to an orphanage with my twin sister. I currently have no idea who my birth parents are and why I was placed for adoption right after birth. I stayed in the orphanage for about a year or so until my sister and I were adopted into our current family. I am ...

Week 3 Story: The Wolf

Image
 It was the fifth day without of meal for Wolf. At this point it was getting ridiculous. He had never struggled to catch his prey before, but ever since he was kicked out of his pack, life has just been a battle for survival. Sure, he wasn’t the best hunter, but he could always rely on his pack mates. Now he has no one. No home. And most importantly no food. Wolf managed to find a hollowed out log the other day that he has been taking shelter in. Tomorrow will be better he thought. Wolf’s stomach growled violently as he struggled to fall asleep.  He awoke late in the day. No worries, he hunts best at dusk. Wolf slowly got up and let out a big yawn. It was time to find a meal. He knew of a farmstead close by but never approached it in the past. The pack was terrified of that place. There were these mutated wolves that guarded the tasty meals on legs.
