Procrastination...and Christmas?

I feel as if procrastination can be talked about by everyone in every way possible. Usually in my sphere of things its always about homework or at least school work. Often time i find that's all I think I procrastinate about. But recently I have broadened my view of what I do in life and how much never gets done on time. It feels like I am in a constant battle to get done with my to do list, and to get it all done by a deadline. When in fact I shouldn't even have a to do list. I should just be doing things when I come upon them and not have to worry about when it needs to be done by. But we are a world of lazy people whether or not you like it, most of us have just over time grown into this and its a hard mold to break. Because of this we do find the need to have a to do list and sometimes that bugs me but oh well, at least thinking about it is a good start to things...right?

Want to know what I have found I procrastinate with?

~Papers. I find i write better under the pressure of a deadline unfortunately and the grades i receive are not a good reinforcement to stop procrastinating because rarely are they bad.

~Reading my bible. I would love to be able to do it every day but i find myself putting other things before it on my "to do list". Then it gets pushed to the next day, where i read extra to make up, but its not the same because i know i am just reading because i missed it.

~Laundry. Yeah this is a huge one, if you have ever seen my room you know this. I will wait until i have no possible outfits left, then i end up doing like 4 loads of laundry...that's a lot.

~Using Presents. I know this is kinda a weird one but trust me I really want something, receive it, then find I don't use it a few months because I didn't have time. Want an example? I got a car for my birthday. My brother got me a CD player/stereo thing for it. That was in June, it is now December and it has not even been installed. I wonder if the warranty is up.

~Reading. I love to read, pleasure reading is a favorite past time. And yet Facebook or video games, or TV (actually not much TV) lures me in. In the corner of my room i have a stack of 15 books i want to read, not have to, but WANT to. (A few of those are also presents i have yet to use from June)

Okay so I think you get the point. I need to work on this but I find i am slowly. Homework is getting done a bit more on time and laundry is being washed a bit before it is absolutely necessary. Which rocks. Cause then i have a variety of outfits to choose from :)


On another note. I have ONE week of classes left, yay! Then a week of finals. Which I am hoping isn't too stressful. Then an entire MONTH off of school. Which is awesome. Yes, be happy with me, its awesome and you know it.

I am so excited for Christmas you can't even imagine unless you happen to be overly excited for it too. Are you? I don't know. What i do know is I am going to Sturbridge Village this weekend for a Christmas outing which will be soooooooo full of holiday spirit and then Sunday is our Carol Service and singing Christmas songs is always good for you :).

What your favorite Christmas song? Mine is most definitely "The Christmas Shoes" by Newsong. It is sad but amazing. They even made a movie from that one song, which takes skill, and the movie was great. One of the only ones i have actually cried during...anyways...enjoy your day. enjoy my post. maybe i can make it 3 days and do one tomorrow too! Because the one before this counted as yesterdays whether or not it was posted after midnight.

Ciao.

PS. That was nice and long right Elizabeth?

EDIT* Yesterdays was posted before midnight. So it will eb 3 days in a row if i get one in tomorrow...busy day though...so it may be really late who knows
