procrastination-

I think it's under the category 'motivation' because I think this might expose my lack of motivation to one task.

This is a really weird thing that I wrote literally a second ago and it's just something that had to be done:

Procrastination in a weird rant-y thing.

Procrastination. It’s what I do when I don’t want to work, when I don’t want to talk, what I do when I don’t want to do anything. That last is a bit strange, don’t you think? When I don’t want to do anything I end up doing something to stop myself from doing something. Huh. 

Sometimes I write letters to politicians. Other times I’ll just decide to bake a cake, I should probably stop doing the latter- my thighs seem to be enjoying themselves too much. One time I was dead set on the idea that in order to work I needed to sit in my room with all the curtains shut and work by candle light. Yes, candle light in the middle of the day. Then, once I had fulfilled that desire I realised I need to have a hot chocolate with marshmallows and a biscuit, again my thighs pleading to expand. But, to my great shock and dismay the marshmallows were not in the cupboard. So yes, I did hop on bike to ride to the closest shop and buy some. Upon returning home I noticed that my hot chocolate was now cold so in order to make a new hot one I downed the cold one and prepared a new drink.

In reality as I am writing this now, I am procrastinating. I should be revising for several exams I have tomorrow. But to be honest instead of listening in class have been writing out the homework due in at the end of that lesson because, of course, I had been buy marshmallows and alike the previous night, hadn’t I?

I once had a school assignment to write a poem about marshmallows and I just ended up eating them all. Now I’m going on about marshmallows to procrastinate from writing this. I think it may be a deadly disease. What if I’m bound to procrastinate for the rest of my life and end up never dying because I’m eating marshmallows? I think that would be kind of cool but at the time I may regret ever eating a marshmallow and knowing it’s soft, spongy surface slide down my throat…

***

Just bought some marshmallows from co-op. So now I figure I’m procrastinating from procrastinating from revising. This is getting a little bit confusing. Don’t get me wrong I know everyone procrastinates but I haven’t really asked anyone what the average procrastination levels are for the average person, I’ll Google them now… Google didn’t have my answers but there are lots of procrastinators asking why they do procrastinate to yahoo answers. If Google didn’t have my answers then I’m not going to Yahoo it. Or Bing-it for that matter. Nor shall I Ask Jeffery. I think that I’m now procrastinating and trying to think of search engines.

I hate to mention this but, I’m sitting in my dinning room, which backs on to my neighbours games room and now I believe they have a new little bathroom, and I can hear someone going to the toilet whilst someone else is playing a piano badly. They are not the best to noises to hear in unison. But I cant help but wonder, who’s doing what? There are five possibilities.

Anyway, one last thing about the neighbours; one day my sister and I were eating our cereal before school and were eavesdropping on the piano playing and toilet using neighbours when we were hit with these great words-

“GET READY FOR SCHOOL! AND **** STOP RUNNING AROUND WITHOUT ANY PANTS ON- PUT SOME ON!!!”

I took out the name just in case; you know how dodgy the Internet is nowadays! These words brought tears to my eyes and milk to the tablecloth.

What were we talking about? Procrastination.

Right well, I believe Family Guy starts in a second, hopefully, so I’m going to go and find candles so I can watch it in candle light.

 

OH! I’M GING TO FAIL MY EXAMS!

Haha! Well... I must say you've increased my procrastination quotient right now, sitting here reading this rather than going off to work!

Good luck with your exams and *stop procrastinating!*
