Not Yet I Say Not Yet

I am not ready yet to study for the test I have two weeks and two days for honesty’s sake. Nagging head voice keeps bugging me to look at the material Not yet, I think. It’s not time yet. We are down to a week and a day. That is one hundred and ninety-two hours. I bake Christmas cookies and go caroling with friends. These finals are not that hard, I argue with the annoying voice. Head voice is not giving up Ruining a Christmas party, and a first date. I race home, realizing the test is Monday The eleventh hour! I stay up all night studying And sleep through the class where the test was held.

I certainly could relate to this, Caren. Done it many times. Procrastination is common to all, and it can kick in at the worst times ever!
