Procrastinating
 
How does everyone like to avoid school work/uni work/work in general?

I personally go online way too much, playing stupid games on facebook and spend too long reading celebrity gossip blogs. I make it worse by trying to do uni work in my bed, when there are so many things that distract me!

I thought of this topic because I am procrastinating by posting! :D

Last.FM

I can seriously spend hours sifting through stuff on that site, listening to recommendations, then going out and looking for it on the net.

Forums are another place where I spend a lot of my time.

Hackysack!!!! I will just look out the window, see it's a nice day, then take my footbag out with me and play while my work phone rings and my inbox fills up haha I love working from home.

MB is pretty bad (or good depending on how you see it) for procrastination.

Lately my procrastination has taken the form of reading non-fiction books which is surprisingly useful since even if it's not what I'm meant to be doing, it's still reasonably productive.


Btw, a bit of trivia that might interest some... 'pro' means 'in front of' or 'projecting forward' and 'cras' means 'tomorrow'.

That describes me perfectly as well.

MB for a start. Using LastFM as a way of making a shopping list for next download spree is another. Writing album reviews, reading random wikipedia articles, watching various football highlights on youtube, watching various interviews on youtube, writing album reviews, etc etc etc

you would think that the 'random' function would be wonderful for wikipedia but it always seems to direct me to 'the ninth appellate court of San Fernando County' for which i have no desire to read.
