Procrastination

    I've an assignment due in 14 hours, and I'm currently on boards. :o

    Over the past week I've had around five assignments due. Though I handed them all in on time (often with less than an hour to spare: "It's eleven fifty-nine, this isn't overdue!") I've found a lot of my designated study time is spent on doing anything but the job at hand :P

    Current favorites are:

    1. Go to the chipper. (yum :D)
    2. Facebook/Boards/Reddit/Knowyourmeme.
    3. Talk to anyone I recognise (gotta love the friendly college atmosphere ;))
    4. Go to the Maynooth practice rooms and mess around on the piano.
    5. Go to a random Ultimate Frisbee training session.
    6. Follow [5.] up with the compulsory after-training booze up. :D
    7. Stare into the fridge for ages.

    ...etcetcetc., I would literally do anything other than a lengthy exhausting assignment ('How adaptable was the form of the concerto to the compositional aspirations of composers of the Romantic era?' - Give me a break :rolleyes:).

    Alright AH, your turn. How do you pass the time doing what you shouldn't?

    I realised earlier that I had been on boards / other internet things for about 5 hours without getting up from my bed.

    Procrastination is the soul rebelling against entrapment.

    Someone great said it I can't remember who.

    I agree with it, your spirit wants to do something other then what you have to. Something like that.
