Premature Senior Slump

Ya. I'm pretty sure it is a real thing. A senior slump junior year. It all starts with the receiving of a motor vehicle. It is like giving a child a key to independence; we can go wherever whenever. Parents now give you a curfew to follow, and don't expect a play-by-play of the evenings activities, as they don't need to be there to shuttle you around. You push that curfew to the limit, sometimes speeding to get home, or calling and asking for an extra 30 minutes to finish -insert here- (ex: movie, project, eating). You find with your new found freedom you have more opportunities to meet people as you are going to more social events, until you reach the point where you are actually having to turn away plans as you have too many things scheduled in a day. With this fluster of activity, where is there time to do the 18 hours (and growing with each week of procrastination) of homework? There is none. Yet we are still encouraged and forced to take a schedule of classes that is far beyond our capabilities in regards to time management. So we have to make choices of what is important. And generally, being the irresponsible teenagers we are, we choose the fun party over reading 3 chapters in AP book. Which is where I am now. Too many activities that I want to do, and too little time to do everything. My schedule is challenging, and if I didn't have hobbies, sports, and friends, I would have no problem fulfilling all requirements of my classes. But unfortunately, that is not the case.  I'm afraid my procrastination is getting the better of me, and if I don't get back on track, I will be very disappointed in my performance, and in myself. I know I am better than this. So, I decided to google how to avoid the premature senior slump. Nothing really good was found, so I'm just going to tell you my plan. Hopefully this will help you as well.
Using my planner. Seems like a baby step, but then atleast I can visually see deadlines. Also, not saving all homework for Sunday. Which means doing a little every night.I might even make a daily plan for bigger projects. And finally, stop opening facebook, email, or texting while doing homework. Focus is necessary I'm slowly beginning to realize, because when you need to reread what you are doing 60 times because you keep stopping, you aren't exactly being time efficient.
I know those things seem small, but I think they really cut at my main problem.
(Side note) I know my blog is supposed to be about current events and travel, but this is a current event for me so I believe it counts.
