You finally get started your homework.

But in no time, it comes.

You cannot avoid the unavoidable.

It starts creeping in. Now, boredom comes rushing in like a cheetah.

At this point, your eyes feel like they weigh in tons.

You start exercising the thought of the things you can be doing right now.

“I’ll just go on my phone for five minutes.”

Minutes turns into hours.

It’s past 10:30 PM already,

And you have so much more to do.

Can you even finish?

Getting enough sleep is definitely out of the question.

Maybe now you can focus on the work needed to be done.

But wait.. Maybe just five more minutes.

“I’ll just finish my homework tomorrow.”
