How to not get your school work done...

1. Book a trip somewhere exciting. The need to read guidebooks and scour websites are excellent distractions.

2. Find 2 young children with poor attitudes, worse cleaning habits, and a propensity for singing nonsense at the top of their lungs. Bonus points if it's too chilly/rainy for them to go outside.

3. Have a full schedule of meetings, lessons and events to cart the children off to, and a job.

4. Be just one week away from 6 weeks of complete freedom from the rigors of school work.

It also helps if you have not gotten much sleep lately, are an intense procrastinator and daydreamer.

In other words, it will be a miracle if I am able to produce my last two essays and have them be written in intelligible English AND show up to my exams with knowledge of anything beyond my name. But in a week it'll all be over!
