A Long Winter's Nap

The school bell rang on Friday afternoon. I was so thrilled! No more school for two weeks. This Christmas break would be nothing but fun. I knew I had some homework to do but I didn't think it would all pile up like it has. One word came into my mind.


pro·cras·ti·nate  

v.intr.

To put off doing something, especially out of habitual carelessness or laziness.

I thought the break would be a long winters nap. Fun in the snow, different activies, and just relaxing. On Monday my mom reminded me saying "This break is going to go faster then you think." And what do you know? It's Thursday afternooon, and I haven't really done any of my homework. And by tomorrow, it's Christmas Eve, then Christmas, and then Sunday. That loses three more days and now keep in mind we'll lose days next week to because of New Years. So I guess the lesson I'm taking from this Christmas Break is don't procrastinate. Leaving extra credit, a book to read, math assignment, and a whole scrapbook for two weeks isn't very smart. But at least I'm doing my blog. :) So much for a long winters nap. Oh well! Merry Christmas!
