I hate my job. I’ve never been so bored. Yesterday I got the bright idea to volunteer for a position that I turned down during my interview.

Now I’m going to be doing sales. Which is something I promised myself I’d never do again. I’m terrible at it.

I would quit if I didn’t need the money.

The worst part about it is that I actually like everyone I work with including my boss. This is just not where I want to be in my life at the moment. I just need to stick it out until next summer.

Something interesting happened to me today. I was on lunch break at work and decided to go to McDonalds because it was the closest thing to my job. When I got to the drive thru the lady that worked there said to me “oh it’s you, I thought I recongnized your voice. You’re becoming quite a regular”

I didn’t even realize I was becoming a regular! This really needs to stop being a habbit of mine.

I’ve been a really bad procrastinator ever since I was a child, but now as an adult its has come to a point where if I have a stressful assignment or project due I will put it off until the last possible minute. My procrastination has become so horrible that I never get to a point where an attempt is made at the project or assignment at hand.

Now I’m not a lazy person, (ok maybe a little lazy… but everyone in the world has a tiny lazy side)I think this is more an issue of stress. I instantly stress myself out when I have to do something, assignments for my classes in particular. I work myself up and get really stressed out that I deal with it by making excuses in my head and waiting for the last possible chance to do do it. Then when that do or die chance finally comes, I make excuses for why I’m not going to do it.

My procrastination and stress has really put a damper on my career and played a role in me not having my degree by now. I really have no one to blame but myself. I need to beat my procrastination once and for all.
