My Plastic Spinners don't spin anymore

As things start to wined down for the semester, it seems that I lack a certain motivation to keep going. With three finals all next week, I need to find the time to study. Plus my parents are returning from Florida and I need to have to house cleaned for my Mom's High school friend who is coming to visit. I guess that somewhere inside of me is the nerd who loves to study, but right now all I can see is the outdoors nerd who loves to be, well... outdoors.
With an amazing weekend behind me, I can now focus my energy to my one chance to finish this semster well. But how the heck do I do that? Usually I can see my week ahead of me and plan accordingly but these next to weeks haven't even happened yet and they are a blur. So in reference to my title "My plastic spinners don't spin anymore." I saw an SUV yesterday who had those cheap Wal-mart plastic spinners. While understand the concept of "fake it till you make it" I don't think that this applies for here. But I digress...
The SUV was rolling down the road and while the front spinner was working fine doing its job of providing cheap "bling" the back spinner was just stagnat. This made me think about my life. I feel that as this semester rolls along I am not providing my "bling" I am merely being rolled not spun from place to place. Instead of looking cool I just look stupid.
I do not want to be the cheap plastic spinner, I want to roll with the other tires in my preverbial life. I know stupid analogy but whatever it made me think.
