Why Can't I drag my lazy self to class?

For the life of me, I can't get myself I class. I have no motivation to do any school work, any thing. It's not that I am stupid or I need to try real hard at school. I don't. Not to sound self important, but I am a pretty smart person. I don't have to try real hard or study as much as the next person. Don't get me wrong, I still study and I study for hours, but I am good at absorbing and remembering information. 
So why do I have no motivation? This is why I am going to be in school forever because I do not have any motivation, not one.

Why I am getting over my Perez Hilton addiction

Sometime in the spring of 2007, a co-worker at a college I was attending introduced me to this amazing gossip blog. She informed me that I could see Britney's nether regions and look at photos that were defaced with drawings of penises and other juvenile graffiti.
It was at this moment the addiction began. I was hooked to this Perez Hilton gossip blog. I checked it constantly, at least 50 times a day, waiting anxiously for the next update. I enjoyed reading the blog. The juvenile photos were funny, the way he trashed celebrities unapologetically was the main reason I kept coming back. It was fresh and innovative and down right hysterical. I found myself laughing out loud constantly. I didn't mind that Perez never trashed talked Paris Hilton (because as it turns out they are friends) or that he obviously showed favoritism to certain stars. It was funny and I enjoyed it.
Then, a strange, yet, I should have seen this coming, thing stared to happen. There were multiple posts on Perez himself. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind an update here or there. I enjoyed the fact that VH1 gave Perez a four-part series on celebritiy gossip. And the fact that he shamelessly promoted it. He is a gossip queen and he is good at it and I think him having a show on it was great. It was a funny show. However, I do not need to know that you are going to be on The View or what your political views are. Or that you went to Paris Hilton's birthday party. I do not give a shit. Give me the gossip!! Stick to what you are good at.
However, I continued to go to his site. Not as much as before, but I did cut it down to only about maybe 20 times a day. Progress! However, I noticed the quality of the blog decreased as much as my visits. It wasn't the same. All I read about was what articles Perez Hitlon would be in, and how great they were, in every single magazine. I really don't care. Good for you, now can we get back to the blog please!? And everything was about Speidi and everyone else on the Hills and Paris and now Lady Gaga. Let's stop being up everyone's ass, okay??
This is what did for me. Perez Hilton loves to trash talk Speidi, the Kardashians, Tara Reid, and plently of other "D-Listers". It's funny and is he ever mean. However, for his 31st Birthday, who does he invite!? Every D-List person he trash talks!! Tara Reid even showed up! I mean, he digs her on the website, a lot worse then many others. He picks on her constantly, yet he invites her his birthday party? And even more stupidly, she shows up. This I don't understand. The Kardashians show up and they have even whored out his book. I just do not understand. There must be something behind the scenes that we, his readers, do not know about.
Even after the birthday, he continues to trash these same people, as if to show us that he can have his cake and eat it too. I don't know about the rest of his readers, but I am fed up. The quality of the blog sucks, he clearly isn't writing his own entries, he borrows from other websites, and I have blatantly seen ideas from the much better and much refreshing blog, D Listed, wound up on Perez's site. I think his readers agree as well, as seen by much perez bashing on comments of his blog.
Perez Hilton's blog use to be the first place I would go to on my computer. He would be the first with the news breaking gossip. Now it is no longer so. I admit now and then I relapse and visits his site maybe once every couple of days, but after readnig one or two entries, I leave. It is no longer funny and half of the entries I have already read on Dlisted or TMZ. I guess Perez Hilton is too concerned with his own celebrity and forgetting what got him there in the first place.
