I should be getting ready for bed and talking to my boyfriend, but he is still busy with a project and I am still busy procrastinating.
I am a HUGE procrastinator. Like, I would legit write my 3000 word essay the day before it is due just because the rush of it all makes me feel more creative. Does that even make sense?
Anyways, I've been trying to work on that for a while now. As I said previously, I am a first year law student, and university came to me as a BIG shock. My whole life I've been educated in Afrikaans, and I was in a small private school during my final years of High School, in which we were very much spoon-fed. I was wrapped in a luxurious blanket of my mother's care at home, where I did the absolute bare minimum of stuff for myself. You could call me quite spoiled.
Then came university.
Suddenly I had to do everything myself! Washing, cleaning, making food, etc. etc. was all my own responsibility. My flatmate was also very high-maintenance and a bit stuck up about stuff regarding the flat, resulting in fights, even though we are best friends. And, on top of all that, I decided to do my LLB degree in English. The transition was super tough in the beginning, but I got the hang of it now.
All of this stress and adapting to a whole new life, forced me to realise that I CAN NOT keep up with my old habits of procrastination, otherwise I will surely drown under the massive workload that my degree provides me with.
Right now I am still on the road to recovery, but every day it gets better. One of the great things that sprouted out of this decision, is that I finally started with writing this book! But I'll tell you more about it tomorrow.
Goodnight, diary.
