Procrastination and Accounting

I can't help procrastinating on the ACC1145 studying that I should be doing now. I know that I got an 80% on the last exam (didn't help that it's considered an A-), but I'm just really tired and really not interested. I said that I have to be careful about something like this. I did almost everything else I had to do today and the rest of my week seems like it's going to be pretty straightforward. I would feel better if I went into this exam confident about everything I had to know for it. Also I'd like an A.

I didn't get much sleep last night for a few reasons. I was woken in the middle of the night by my aunt. She seemed to be suffering from some sort of sleep dementia. I was deep asleep about to hit dreamland, literally. Once she woke me up though, that was over for about three hours. When I was finally able to go back to sleep, I was woken again. This time by my cousin's boyfriend telling me that I could take a shower in his bathroom whenever I wanted to. Granted that was good news, but I was far from ready to take a shower for at least another hour and a half. My priority was getting some sleep before the long day I had ahead of me.

Now I'm tired as hell and I need to study. I've already fallen asleep twice on my books so I'm thinking that I should just throw in the towel; get to bed extra early tonight; and study my ass off in the morning. I'd rather that than do a poor job studying and forget everything during the exam because I was too tired to retain the information. I've already said I have a problem with that in ACC1145 anyway. As much as I would like to (and that may be the problem there) I just can't hold onto any accounting lessons after and outside of class. So I will be studying before the exam. It's just a matter of how much material. (8)
