Going home to pray

I am writing from class again. I wish I were a better christian. I just allow myself become to distracted by too much instead of handing things over to my savior who I often fall away from. I often find it difficult to believe in a meaningful way. I'm still having some trouble staying on track to do my homework, which makes it difficult to finish things on time, but I am learning. I will try to go home and pray for God's help to stay on task.

Well

I've have missed some posts recently which I need for a grade. So I have determined to write this post shortly after class time. Technically it is still during class time. Its a shame cause I do think blogging daily could stretch out my writing muscles which I could probably use. I have a speech class right after this one so my mind is tending toward an assignment due in it. I am to write a persuasive speech which is similar to the proposal essay I am doing in this English course. Therefore I am tempted to reuse my topic in the proposal essay. However my teacher suggest making a speech about giving to Japan which is also a topic I am very interested in. Hmm choices.

Blog

Hi my name is Sean and I procrastinate. I have had a long struggle with procrastination. I believe it has hurt me incalculably, but I have at least a better understanding of it. I now better see the point of constantly using my time for productive purposes even if I haven't yet adopted such a policy. I haven't, yet, put off my ways of instant gratification. Though, at least now, I can recognize the source of so many of my problems. Even choosing to create this blog was a struggle. Yet I feel a potential turning point on the horizon. With God's help I'm sure I can subdue this issue of procrastination.

Food for thought

Well I see I'm going to have to stay up on my posts. I'm going to speech next. I'm working in a group on the topic of eyewitnesses and wrongful convictions. The teacher assigned a book my class has been reading. Its about a white women who was raped and the black man she wrongfully ID'ed and help send to jail for 11 years. This draws to mind the nature vs nuture conflict. How much our own personal choices affects us compared to how our environment does. Not just our environment but even how our chemical make-up we are born with affects us. I think personal choice does in fact make us who we are, yet I believe that the unique circumstances we come from and are faced with utlimately masks the better judgement of those around us to some degree or another.

Snows cleared up I'm going to eat tonight to celebrate my brother's, my dad's and my birthday.

Birthday

Today was my birthday. It was iced over outside so I had to spend my birthday inside with my mom. Which was good. She made me a birthday cake. Its my twins birthday too obviously. We'll be celebrating it proper on Friday.

Still on rough draft

Procrastination is of the devil. Well sadly I still don't have my rough draft done, so I'm going to have to get on that now. Probably I will start right after this post. It snowed in today and thus I've been graced with two more days to finish the rough draft. God help me to finish.
