Procrastination Nation
If I had a dollar for every minute of my life that I procrastinated, I’d be rich. I’ve entered the phase of my education where all I have left is my dissertation. “All.” I say that like it’s a small thing. It’s not, but now that there is little structure to my coursework- mainly because there is no coursework, I find it very hard to motivate.
So, I said “self, why not start a new blog. A blog totally devoted to education.” I mean, why not? Lord knows I have many opinions on just about any topic in education, and in my twisted mind, I figure that blogging is sort of like researching my my dissertation. It totally is, right?
At any rate, this is the space in which I will post any and everything I want to weigh in on. Feel free to join in!
