Reasons Why I Procrastinate During Exams/Homework (but mostly exams) When I'm @ Home [with explanations (excuses)]

These reasons are in no specific order... just in the order that I think of them.

1) My desk is extremely messy.
I guess this explains why I confine myself to a nice SMALL (very small) corner where I set my laptop and if I want to read my textbooks, I have to shut my laptop screen down or I study on my laptop...

2) With my desk being so messy, I feel cramped up.
I feel limited to space. I feel like I need to break free. So I go do something else.

3) I never wake up on time to study while I'm at home.
I usually sleep late the night before, so I wake up really late the day after... even after I've set my alarm. I love my bed.

4) I get way too distracted.
I'm at home, I have complete freedom to do whatever I want that isn't studying. I look up makeup online, I go on Facebook, I chat on messenger, I tweet, I go eat. Yea.. too much going on there.

5) I study in my room.
Not a great idea because my bed is in my room, which makes me want to sleep.

6) I wear my PJs at home.
Also not a very good idea because PJs = getting ready for bed/comfort... and school/going out clothes mean going out and doing school stuff.

7) House members can get distracting.
There's always random noises and televisions making ruckus... that I just can't concentrate.

8) I stare at the clock too much.
Time goes slowly when I stare at the time...


I think that's about all the reasons I can think of now. I should go back to my HS studying habits and just study on top of my laptop so that it's closed and I'm not tempted to do go online. :)

Happy studying to all of you who are in the same boat!
