2011: the year of the keeners.

Their homework is done days ahead of time. they begin reading the required texts before the semester even begins. they all have the right answers, all of the time. and yet, the keener is often socially awkward. Now since I have the social part pretty down pat (also spelled ‘down packed’, depending on your up bringing) I think its time to finally get some $#!* done.

My sister (P) and i have come to the conclusion that we need to jump on the keener bandwagon, or caravan in this case since I’ve been a gypsy for the past few months.

As a journalism student being keen happens to be pretty essential to making it, unfortunately it is very difficult to simultaneously have an active social life.

So shoot me for being in a new city and making the most of it. Is it really so bad that i choose to go to a party over re-writing lecture note? It’s not that I’m lazy or, academically challenged, it just gets a little tricky sometimes to stay on top of things (HA that’s what she said!). Seriously though, there are SO MANY distractions, slowly but surely I will get there o_O.

I vow to no longer do the following:

*just think about studying, I will actually study

*show up late for class

*start essays the night before

*Facebook creep in class

*fall asleep in class (don’t judge me. we’ve all done it once…or twice)

*only read half the book

This blog is step one to a new lifestyle, a keener lifestyle. To all of you out there I hope you welcome us with open arms.
