Bad Day: It started when I gathered my student loan papers because my bank account is running dry. If I were a responsible person, I would have sent this off many months ago.

I am shocked by my will power. Yesterday I finished a paper that is due on Tuesday. Today I read 150 pages of a History book. I also got some studying done for my bio midterm.
