Through the years I have proudly proclaimed I am lazy . . . yes, you heard it first, I'm lazy and proud. Before I start my own support group let me explain why I am proud of this negative trait.
From a very young age I have truly only done the bare minimum in most cases. Yet, all but one semester of middle school I was on the Honor Roll. I carry a 3.4 G. P. G. I even took honors classes up until this year, my senior year. I don't exactly know how I pull through for most of this. I guess I am extremely lucky and pretty damn smart.
With that being said, I envy those with a good work ethic. Because most things come so easily to me, when something challenges me I shut down. Luckily, even with that trait, I still have kept my grades up and pleased my parents.
For some reason I think I am getting a little less lazy. I'm filing for extemp and I don't even compete in that event. I am actually working hard in my English class (which is filled with idiots). I actually keep log of assignments to turn in and have only two missing assignments so far this year. A very new development in my life and it feels quite odd.
I am nowhere near as studious as other people and there are far better students in my school, but I have improved. Hopefully, this trend will continue and college won't kick my ass too badly. Having a boyfriend who does his work helps.
All in all, I still am lazy to the point of not eating because it requires chewing. Yet, there is a little light at the end of the tunnel

I am just spitting this out here, but it seems to me that every single one of these blogs is used to justify yourself. Maybe you are attacked for some things, maybe you just have low self esteem, I don't know, but you sound very defensive. Does it feel better to proclaim your faults on the Internet for any one to see? It's good that you may be "getting a little less lazy" but maybe that's not enough. I guess you are "pretty damn smart" but that doesn't help. Instead of envying those with a good work ethic, ask them for help on setting up a study schedule or whatever needs to be done that you are too lazy to do. Or, instead of being defensive, accept constructive criticism from people. Be okay when a coach gives you criticism. Be okay when a friend tries to help you with a paper or whatever. Be okay with doing a little work. Don't rely just on a boyfriend to do work or to get you on the right track, because honestly, that's just sad.
