Pre-Midterm Procrastination Disease (PMPD for short) is a disease reserved especially for the week before Midterms.
College and High School students are extremely vulnerable.
The most popular symptoms of the disease include:

Updating your facebook every 5-10 minutes hoping someone will reply.

Checking your emails constantly, hoping someone will send you something.

Texting your buddies for answers on test reviews and praying your teacher won't compare your work.

Speed reading your notes and claiming to your professor you've "studied well."

Crying for no apparent reason.

Writing papers at 2 in the morning.

Getting "distracted" constantly because of hunger or thirst.

There is one effective cure to this phenomenon.
The only possible cure is the winter break after testing, where students only have to really worry if they passed their midterms or not.

procrasturbate

To waste otherwise valuable time in self-stimulation of the genitals, or more metaphorically, to waste time doing something unrelated and unimportant to the task at hand; it must be of great interest/pleasure to oneself but only to oneself (which separates it from procrastination) and must have no real positive or substantial upshots.
Keane should be writing an essay but he's procrasturbating.

I can see why nothing gets done in the house; Suzy often tends to procrasturbate by watching The Notebook over and over again.
