Comfy chair, laptop charged, a healthy meal and a smile. <br />I sit at my desk ready to delight in my (inser subject here) book for a while. <br /> <br />I’ve paid till I hurt, and let other wants go, all to make it to class, <br />My aspirations this coming semester are more than simply to “pass.” <br /> <br />But even as I, begin to try, at making the most of this date, <br />My Facebook page looms, unceasingly ready, to set my errant mind straight. <br /> <br />“My baby’s the size of a cantaloupe! ” One post stands out from the rest. <br />Incredible it seems, once that baby was me, crammed between pelvis and chest. <br /> <br />And on it goes, it goes on and on, until I finally say, <br />If its the last thing I do, I’ll get some work done, before the end of the day! <br /> <br />But oh what sadness grabs hold of my soul, when I turn to look at the clock. <br />I’ve spent the last two hours of my life, comparing babies to crops! <br /> <br />Chair flat, laptop dying, my belly empty again, <br />I frown at the complete, and utter waste of time, this moment of my life has been. <br /> <br />I hastily fumble through pages of text, not even stopping to stalk. <br />Until I just can’t take any more, and I take a quick look at the clock. <br /> <br />Only ten minutes! Could that really be all? ! It seems like its been forever! <br />And so goes the tale of days spent “studying” <br />Click “Like” if you this has happened to you, ever.<br /><br />Keaton Christian Wagner<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-ode-to-modern-day-study-habits/
