30day challenge! :)

     "Oh, I'll do my homework in a few minutes. I have to do something else!" This is what I think to myself most of the time during the day after school or on the weekend. As you can tell, I'm a big procrastinator! I would always do my homework after dinner or a couple hours later. This is how bad it is. Surprisingly, I've hardly went to school with incomplete homework. I always do finish it before the next morning. I remember I had to do a project by myself last year and I had to do all the work in the last minute and I stayed up till 5am. I was actually really upset at myself and I felt really depressed. I personally don't like staying up when everyone else is sleeping because I feel lonely. I always like it when people are around me when I'm doing my homework and that's probably why I take a long time to finish my work. I like to talk to my sister when I'm doing my homework usually to be honest. Even though I know it's really bad for myself to procrastinate everyday, I can't stop. It's like an addiction. I'm already used to it and it's hard to get out of. This is a really important goal for myself personally. I probably could earn lots of other benefits then just sleeping on time. My work would be probably better because I wouldn't have to rush at all and I wouldn't be scared or worried that I won't be able to finish it. The best of all, I'd get at least 8 hours of sleep everyday which is a success for me! :) My goal for the 30 day challenge is to not procrastinate and get the habit of doing my homework as my first priority!
     I know it's going to be hard for me to reach my goal but some of the things that I could do to prevent myself from proscrastinating are, I could try to do my homework as soon as I get home from school in the afternoon. I already know it's going to be a big challenge for me because I like to sleep for like 30 minutes at around 4. I seem to be very exausted afterschool and fall asleep, which is not good! I can try my hardest not to fall asleep though! The next thing I can do is to try to finish most of my homework BEFORE dinner. What's better than having free time after dinner? :) One of my most challenging thing to do would be spending less time on facebook. I'm pretty sure most of my friends already know this but I'm almost addicted to facebook. I've gotten a little better now but I go on it for at least an hour every single day. I even leave it on when I'm doing homework on the computer. Thank God that I don't have an Iphone or an Ipod touch. I can imagine myself go on facebook every single minute to check notifications. Well, I AM getting an Iphone soon for my birthday so it might be even more challenging! I might try to spend less time on facebook because I think it'll help with the non-procrasting goal a lot!
     I'm actually very excited and nervous at the same time to start this 30 day challenge because I know it's going to be REALLY challenging for me and I hope I succeed. I bet that I'll regret choosing this for my "goal" but I'll always remember to try and never give up even if I fail! :)
