Writing When I Don't Want To Write

It's official, the new semester has started, complete with a 3-page paper due on the second week of class. I hate papers. You see, I like to write, but not for a professor to grade. I've thought a lot about why this is the case over the past week. Yes, I fear a bad grade, but it's more than that. When I do poorly on a multiple choice test, I simple chose the wrong answer; didn't remember something properly. But when I do poorly on an essay test or paper, I often feel as though more than just my remembering skills are being tested. I feel like I'm being tested. Can she do it? Can she express her thoughts coherently and wisely. Can she manage not to sound like an idiot? I don't know.....can I? This thought scares me.

Seems silly because at this very moment I'm avoiding writing my paper by writing on my blog. That's right, I'm avoiding writing by writing. But somehow writing on here, is much easier than writing for a professor. Maybe it's because, as far as I know, I only have about 5 readers on here, most of whom are related to me. Or maybe it's because I can write about things I actually care about on here, who knows?
Anyway, all of that to say, I have a feeling you'll be getting a lot more posts in the next few weeks. I've decided that I waste too much time on Facebook so I've banned myself from it till after 6 pm every day. I know (*gasp*), how can I live without Facebook? I don't know, we'll see how it goes, it's only day two. But seeing as Facebook was my all time favorite procrastination tool, I'm bound to find another, most likely blogging. Hope you don't mind :)
