Oh, sweet procrastination..

It's day 4 of my Thanksgiving break and I am still managing to find perfectly reasonable reasons to procrastinate the piles and piles of homework I need to do for nxt week..
Reasonable Reasons include:
  • apply for summer position at Table in the Wilderness
  • fold laundry
  • update Twitter followers
  • redesign my blog and post for the 1st time in... a while.

Lately I've been less than motivated for any kind of school work and I cannot decide if I'm just feeling guilty or if Christ is convicting me of this laziness. I know the difference between guilt and conviction- and being lazy in school is not steering me away from Christ. In fact, sometimes my excuse to not study is to read the Word. Right now, I am feeling very torn between wearing my hats as a family business co-owner and a student. My family's business is struggling in the economy and my parents ask only that I give ALL of my free time to work. As for school, I cannot seem to see the importance of any assignments and have little motivation to work as hard as I used to at school. I know God will use me where I am and I only have one [seemingly VERY long] semester before graduation, but still.. I lack any drive.

There. Now that I've successfully completed the last of my "reasonable reasons to procrastinate," I'm going to read an article for class and force myself to write a few papers.
