My Makeshift To-Do list

Usually when I write down the things I have to do, basically a To-Do List- I actually get stuff done, and believe me I am a big time procrastinator with a really short attention span. Take today for example, I had so much stuff to get done- but instead I went on a long bike ride and cleaned my whole closet and desk, this may seem productive- but it wasn't what I needed to get done. I have A LOT of schoolwork for the summer. For English I have to read 2 books- A Separate Peace by John Knowles and Still Life with Rice by Helie Lee. They aren't that long, but they are really boring and I hate reading. I am also in an AP (advanced placement) Global history class- which gave a monstrous summer assignment consisting of 2 parts. The first part was to (directions from the assignment)-Directions:  Create detailed outlines that would answer a potential essay question on each of the assigned topics below.  You DO NOT need to compose the essays!!  Create and bind a booklet that is clearly labeled by unit/time frame.  .  Please number each outline as they are numbered below (i.e. 1-20). You should use the first four units of your text book to assist you in this exercise.  THESE WILL BE DUE ON THE FIRST FULL DAY OF CLASS WHEN WE RETURN IN THE FALL!  I would NOT recommend that you leave this assignment to the last minute.  Although you may wish to share ideas with friends, I would highly recommend that you do your own reading and research on each topic.  If I detect plagiarism, you will receive a “0” and possible explusion from the A.P. World History program. There are 20 different outlines that require a lot of research, detailing, and organizing. The second part of the History assignment was to read a historical book of choice and write a long response on it and about what world history surrounds the story and how it ties in with the plot. 

How much have i finished? Well, I have done 1 out of 20 outlines, and am in the middle of A Separate Peace 

so I have a lot more to do. This is now my somewhat written to-do list for the next week or so before i go on vacation.
