monologue
Posted by HIMCHAN YUN (DANIEL) on November 4, 2014
Laziness is a succubus who seduces me to take away my will to work and a devil who eventually fails me to do what I have to do. It has been two months since I came to Baruch College. I have taken several quizzes and the midterms and have done a lot of homework. However, simultaneously, I missed a lot of work, too, because of laziness. My laziness lead me not to read the books that I never read the history textbook until the day before the midterm exam. I ended up getting a D on that midterm and I decided to drop it. Even in other classes, such as English, Philosophy, and Anthropology, I only read half of the given material. Laziness flatters me in my ears not to do my works to feel comfortable and not to struggle about a pile of homework. But, in fact, it makes me more nervous when the due date of the works comes near. What I have to do is stacked up every day so that I think that I should do them today. However, at the same time, I still hold my works until the night before the due date. I am writing this monologue at the night before the presentation date. In high school, studying at the night before the test still worked and got me a decent average grade of 96. However, in college, a term is only a semester, not the whole year like high school, that there are quizzes and tests every month. As a freshman in first year of college, I did not know how to study in college. Since I experienced failure, I am going to fix it. I will not watch TV shows until I take all the final exams, I will set everyday plans to distribute my time evenly to each subject, and I will no longer postpone my works.
