I recall that day as if it were yesterday, it was the last week of school and I had an essay to turn in on a deadline, which was going to define by the percentage of my overall grade if I was going to successfully accomplish that school year to go onto twelfth grade. I had perfect grades on all my four classes, except that one. I was desperate, I had only completed half of my essay and procrastinated about the rest of the half. At that time, I remember sending my teacher a lot of electronic messages because I was enrolled in a virtual school, where I couldn’t explain to my teacher my situation face-to-face. Long story short, my teacher gave me an extra week to complete my essay along with all its punctuations corrected. I was relieved, but reflecting on my experience, I learned that it’s not good to procrastinate. My delay to turn in my assignment by the due date didn’t mean that I was a lazy person, it meant that I had fear of failure. I was too afraid of not passing that class, thus; I almost had to repeat the same class with the same teacher all over again for two
