BOOKS OR BOYS? How About Both

Spring semester is winding down fast. We are half way through!!
You know what that means. Time to hit the books hard,
But with the winter leaving, and the spring coming in,
days are getting longer, and nights of studying all night
are becoming shorter
or non existent.
Flowers aren’t the only things that bloom during the spring
Relationships do also…So I’ve heard.
So on that warm night, when there is so much more to do than your school work
And he wants nothing more than the company of you
What will you choose to cuddle up with… books or boys?

How can you get your work done, while not neglecting your guy?
Sounds hard, but I’ve see it done.

*Try studying together, this works out good for those couples who both attend the same college. It is possible that you may definitely serve as a distraction to one another, so stay out of your room…try the library.

*If you’re sure you’re the type of girl who can and will NOT productively get work done with “him” around, than make sure you set aside time just for you and your books, and he is not allowed. It sounds bad, but a few hours away from him is better than the alternative…failing!

*If your one of those girls who stays on the phone with your guy all day (and don’t be fooled, texting can be just as distracting as talking). Set aside some quiet time. Make sure he understands when it is, and what it means. If you take it seriously, he will too.

*He’s planned a weekend get away just for you two and you have a big paper due the day after you expect to return. You’ve known about the paper and the trip for weeks. DON’T WAIT TILL THE LAST MINUTE. Work on your paper throughout the week prior to your trip and the papers due date. Its human nature to put off till tomorrow what we could do today, but this is not acceptable, nor will it work. You will rush your paper the night of, it may suck, and you may fail it. Just don’t do it. You don’t have to choose between the trip and the grade. If this is done correctly, you can enjoy both your romantic get-away..and possibly and “A”.

We are all very aware of how convincing some guys are and how distracting relationships (especially new relationships) can be… So, at times you may have to put your foot down, or maybe even pull out your little jar of self-discipline, but please note: if you’ve found the guy…the right guy… he will want you to succeed and managing books and boys wont be a problem!
