So, I've had a psych assignment for two weeks now and its due Monday. Nothing too dramatic, just "read article X and evaluate it" blah blah. Granted I'm a busy person and most nights I've got schoolwork or other web-based activities to occupy my time, but it seems impossible to get out of 'work mode' and into 'academic mode' during the week. Enter the weekend.
Oh weekends, I remember when they were two days of pure, unadulterated freedom, aside from the occasional weekend hospital shift. And night times, leaving work at work at having time to myself.. I reminisce on those days with such fondness. Now, I'm not complaining, I love my job, I am devoted to my kids and I'm glad to put in the effort. But when it gets to weekends and then I need to switch to academic mode I'm finding that its just not working.
I miss full time study. Go to class, do your work, go home. Working at home? Eeeeeew. Wow, I think this whole post has been one long tangent. I feel an almost supernatural aversion to doing this assignment, it really is uncanny. It will be easy, its only 1000 words and its only an evaluation of a report, of which I've written a shit load over the years. I think that's why I'm procrastinating! Complacency! That's it, the nail has been thoroughly smacked on the head.
My name is Brendon Bearman and I have grown complacent =)
