Its chaotic in school today.Its going to be chaotic in school for the entire week. Its not due to the elections for student council since its already done, there is something more terrible and horrifying than that. Yep. I'm saying it. End of Term Requirement Week. Its not exactly term end yet. The finals are still *gulp* around two weeks away. However, since Holy Week is just around the corner, exams, projects and reports/defenses have to be completed now. Its not that I'm not a victim of this. Its just that I somehow understand the reason why this burden seems to fall on the student population.
Reason One: Procrastination
One word which explains a lot of people. It can take a lot of forms. Laziness, dependency on genius groupmates, sleepiness, etc. The thing is, people rarely start working unless the deadline is staring them in the face.
Reason Two: Cramming
Usually an outcome of reason one, yet sometimes unavoidable. What else can you do but cram since all the requirements are given late in the term? Of course, when it happens term after term, you can't help but get used to it which leads us to its other cause...
Reason Three: Late Requirement Announcements
This is very obvious in laboratory projects. Teachers say they don't want to give the projects early since the students are liable to just copy an existing project. It happens often so when you come across one who will tell you the project early, you usually lack motivation to do it as soon as possible.
These reasons are just three of the many reasons why its chaotic here. Actually, I can't even hear myself think well because of the noise. So noisy is the atmosphere, so disorganized is life. Including mine.
