I’ve got to start my essay. In a minute.

After procrastinating all weekend, I vowed to myself that I would get to work on my religious studies essay.

After procrastinating all weekend, I vowed to myself that I would get to work on my religious studies essay.

Right away.

I would do nothing all day but research and take notes. I wouldn’t stop until I had a rough draft.

Instead, I somehow ended up watching the History Channel.

I learned why the Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the Seven Wonders of the world. I learned the origin of the phrase, “Worth your weight in salt.” And then promptly forgot it.

And I still haven’t started my essay.
