...I feel I've been busy.

I've had loads of homework, not enough sleep and other obligations to uphold.
But then again,
I look around at my friends who have all or close to all honors classes, and they participate in a sport, and they still seem to compose themselves daily, without complaining. I think they are way more busy than me. And I think I complain too much. Complain about things that are not worth being stressed about in the eyes of others. I've realized I stress about things more because I procrastinate and do not prioritize whatsoever.
This happened last year too, and I told myself I wouldn't have any repeats this year of last minute assignments, and cramming for tests. But it's happening again, and it's a habit I really wish to break...but I just have trouble with self control; the power to force myself not go onto myspace or watch TV before my homework is finished. I'm worried that it may get worse, and my grades will slack or I will have to stop doing the other things I love to do.
But the thing is, if I really wanted it to stop, wouldn't I work on solving this problem harder? And if so, do I obviously not care about my priorities enough to do anything? It worries me.
You're probably thinking gosh she's lazy, and doesn't care, selfish, not smart to keep procrastinating, of course she can do something about it-just stop! She should go do her homework.
I agree. So why can't I do it? Am I just being oblivious and ignorant to the solution?
I guess so. My goal this week is to work harder at doing what is most important, first, so I can enjoy free time later.
And get to bed earlier.
I understand that whole "work before play" saying.

"Put of procrastinating to another time."
