So I got my finals today... and I havent studied yet.. :(

[The Stigenator]

I dont know I am depressed or something.. dont know what's bugging me.

What ever it is, I havent studied for my math final (oh well so much for getting an "A" in it) and I havent studied for my Cultural Anthropology final.. and I was planning to do a paper.. well so much for that.. I cant think to finish it. I have written something.. but 5 pages on "international business without the study of cultural anthropology" isnt going to be finished anytime soon. I had written about the Chevy Nova, The Coke Incident in China, etc etc.. but I am still not done..

and its 7:30.. time for me to take a bath.. maybe if I have time at school I can finish it there.
Arrgh.. why do I have these bouts of "depression" before a final.. Its like I am freaking distracted and I cant seem to study even though I meant to. I guess I need to move to a new place (apartment - cause I can study fine at my parents place - to an extent)...

thank you for listening to my rants..

TGG

You probably just need to find a chick. Then you won't get that way.

Academic Procrastination and depression are two different things.

Bad move, good guy.

Why do you have finals in the middle of February?

If you are looking at this post, you need to step away from the computer and study. Fight the urge!

I think the latter is probably a result of the former.

If depression is keeping you from your studies, you need to find some help. What if down the line you find a great job and lose it because a bout with depression caused you to miss too many deadlines? You need to nip this in the bud before it turns around and bites you.

i have been thinking of seeing a psychatrist (and my doctor too) regarding it. Maybe I will do so sometime tommorow or this weekend. I know when I am going thru a bad phase.. at one time I nearly didnt go to work for 2 months .. well I did go in once in a while.. but mostly I didnt go.. since I was then the Sr. Admin and I had a Jr. Admin I didnt bother. While I am still working there, the point is that I went thru this whole not going to work, sitting at home, sleeping or neffing on AT..

First thing I need to do is cut down AT.. well that is what I am going to do from tonite.. I am going to ask the Mods to ban me for a week.. so I cant post anything.

As for pulling a skace, I didnt have to do that.

I missed 4 problems in the math test -- not bad for not even preparing.. could have done those, but then it would have taken time.. so I finished the rest before attempting those 4 .. of which I will get partial credit for 2 of them. All together I lose 10 points.. which would mean still a "B" or an "A" depending on which way you look at it.

The other final I did pretty good.. I was surprised.. cause it was hard.

Oh well time for some sleep.

I do know why I have my depression.. its a combination of "putting things off" (personal projects and otherwise) and being lazy... along with wrong priotization.. i need to prioritize right..

hopefully these 4 days will give me time to catch up with teh backlog.

If you are just procrastinating then it's your own fault.

If you indeed are depressed then you should seek help. This happened to one a friend of one of my friends from high school. He started procrastinating and skipping class every once in a while. It soon turned into skipping all the time. Two weeks ago he started slitting his wrists. Thank god his parents noticed, put him on medical leave, and pulled him out of school to get help.
