addictive like crack

Procrastination is addictive. Damn addictive. Once it gets those hooks in your brain, and you feel that rush of starting the 10pg paper due tommorow at 1am, its game over. You're hooked. And that's just the beginning; you never realize its a GATEWAY drug. Next thing you know, you're walking to the coke machine at 3 am, bumming cigarettes off your neighbor all night long, eating Chickfila biscuits like mana from heaven. You sleep late, drive to campus, and blow $9 on parking. You don't shave. You don't call your parents; they worry sick about you and leave voicemails. You put off showers so you can check facebook and make sure away messages haven't changed in the last 2 minutes while you were reading CNN.com. Worst of all, you start making excuses; you miss the big meeting, the early deadline, the first draft. Pretty soon, you can't get a rush until you're actually LATE in turning in assignments. That's when the grades drop. You start stealing for cash to buy just one more redbull. Your teeth turn yellow from all the coffee. And your face hasn't been shaven since midterms...You see where this is going. One day the roommates will find you face down on the keyboard, half-empty redbull in one hand, the other still rightclicked on that last away message in the "Carolina peeps" section...
