Here is another instalment of spending time like an introvert. I think most people will be able to relate to this post.
I found myself recently trying to remember what John J Pershing did exactly, or if that was even his name, and it dawned on me how much I hate studying.
Whenever I get a test back with a bad grade I mentally scold myself. I tell myself that next time I will study for days, sleep well, eat a healthy breakfast, and ask questions. But every time, somewhere between that day and the next test something changes.
I get this idea in my head while I'm not at home, that today is the day to start being productive. I plan out what I need to study and for how long. I then make a promise to myself that I can goof off in school because at home I will work hard.
Then I get home....
It's not that I don't want to study, it's that there are far better things for me to be doing. And by better I mean funner. (that is not a word; maybe I should study more) So I say I will just study later.
Later never comes....
I then take the test knowing that something like this was mentioned but having no clue what the answer is. I sit and stare until something comes to me and just put that.

Now comparatively, I am a good student. I make all As and Bs, I just refuse to put that extra effort in. So I really shouldn't complain. But I know that for everyone, introvert and extroverts alike, doing things we hate is hard. Just always try to remember the good that can come out of pushing yourself.
Love,
Amanda
