To the master of procrastination,
\nTelling great tales of justification,
\nFor exactly why we waited so long\u2026<\/p>\n

\"courtneyfinalsc201305\"<\/a>To study for the final exam,
\nThe one we put off all semester to cram,
\nEven though we know its force will be strong.<\/p>\n

Its presence is scary,
\nIt leaves us quite wary,
\nOf our bleak final score.<\/p>\n

While we muster up strength,
\nTo attack its great length,
\nWe soon fall asleep in our bore.<\/p>\n

With coffee and tea,
\nAnd set times to pee,
\nBalancing the load we must bear.<\/p>\n

But we are often distracted,
\nAnd quite frankly attracted,
\nTo the hottie at the left with the hair.<\/p>\n

\"courtneyfinalsb201305\"<\/a>But, no I must!
\nI cannot trust!
\nMy final grade from which it began.<\/p>\n

If I don\u2019t succeed,
\nMy soul will bleed,
\nAs I sign up for this course yet again.<\/p>\n

So I pick up my pen,
\nAnd return to my Zen,
\nTo tackle the books one more time\u2026<\/p>\n

As I muster my luck,
\nTo sift through this muck,
\nAnd dominate these finals of mine.<\/p>\n

Why yes, I did write this while putting off studying for finals \ud83d\ude09<\/i><\/p>\n

(Special thanks to Carly, my sister, for helping me find some good rhyming words)<\/p>\n
