Work ethic, I lack it.

Well, in a way I do. I like going to work and working, and I like going to class and learning. But homework is a different equation.

I've never been good at doing homework, I get very distracted. I've noticed in the past couple of years, I'm not good at doing homework at home. (Not sure if it would be ironic or a coincidence) I've found that much time is lost just on the internet. Sure, my intention was just to check my email, but then I see notifications from various social sites and blogs, next thing I know it's two hours later. Then between my four dogs barking and the phone ringing constantly because of my mom's work.

I've been terrible with procrastination in the past, and it still comes up now and then. I try to work, but something in my mind tells me it can be done later. Then I try to do it at the last minute I can't concentrate because I'm mad at myself for doing that.

Especially now, things are a little different. I was a Radio/TV major until last spring. I decided what I wanted to do in life was something graphics oriented so I changed my major to graphic design and now I'm in drawing classes which I'm not very confident in already because I've never been a good artist. Drawing takes patience which is something I've always had a problem with.

But now I try to work on my drawings and hope they come out as good they can be.
