Cramming for Procrastination

Cram session!... Up 'til 2am trying to learn all I must know for a surprise test we found out we would be taking today. With all the college apps and job searching, there isn't much time left for a midnight cram session. I believe this quote should apply to teachers "Procrastination on your part does not constitute a crisis on mine"... 16 question review sheet, due today along with taking the test today, given to me at the end of the day yesterday. I completed the review sheet around 12:30am and recruited the assistance of my parents to quiz me until 2am. How I enlisted their help, I don't know. Our teachers tell us endless times to finish the review sheet early and study, study, study everyday. How is this possible when it's handed to us less than 24 hours in advance of the test? Hmm! Is this a contradiction? I arrived in class at the end of the day with circles under my eyes and feeling brain dead. All the facts in my head were scrambled and the typed questions were a blur. "How did you do on your test?" my mother asked. The challenge to succeed in an environment set-up for failure is difficult...but that's High School.
