Motivation 101

I am currently sitting at my desk trying to drudge up enough motivation to finish this Hamlet essay that has been haunting me for weeks. Why is it that I know I have so much to do and yet I can never find the right amount of motivation to just sit down and actually write it? I get so easily distracted that I probably should not be watching Rachel Ray right now, nor should I have Facebook up and running while I'm trying to write. I have sat down and made a list of all the things I need to finish and accomplish in the next two weeks and I can feel my stress level rising the more I stare at it. ..well I'm not actually getting stressed because for some insane reason I'm incapable of feeling stressed, but I am definitely feeling overwhelmed! University has been one of the strangest experiences of my life this far, I've learnt so much but as the same time I cannot wait till it's finished.

I'm in my 4th year of my teaching degree and will be finishing my professional year next September. :) It's not far off and I know I need good marks to have any hope of getting into U of T or York University so I'm going to shut down Facebook, turn off Rachel Ray and start writing. Wish me luck people!
