defeating the slacker persona

working full time makes it hard to study during the week.  most days, i get home between seven and ten and i'm just too exhausted to read anything before bed.  so, the weekends end up being designated for schoolwork.  staying home, though, doesn't work.  i get caught up watching movies, cooking, and hanging out with my husband.

last semester, i was really good about getting out of the house.  at least one weekend day (usually sundays), i would go to a cafe (typically chapterhouse on 9th & bainbridge or higher grounds in nolibs) and study my ass off from morning to night.  this semester, though, i've been a real slacker.  every weekend, i cook, watch movies, and hang out with my husband.  i rarely leave the house to study anymore.  i don't know why i've become such a slacker homebody, but i need to get back in the homework zone.

today, my friend pre and i are studying out of the house.  we planned to leave at 11:30, but ended up meeting up around 12:30 and getting brunch at the belgian cafe before going to study.  now, it's 4:30 and i'm just getting started.  old habits die hard, but i'm trying.
