The "I should be studying now" post.

Well, this is me running out of ways to procrastinate. I really mean that. Today I should have studied (and after this post I swear I will do enough studying to make up for all the lost time earlier today).
Today I woke up at 6:30am to start studying and now know for certain that I am incapable of being productive for long periods of time until the clock hits midnight. So instead I will now study by staying up until 6:30 and sleeping til noon. Being nocturnal suits me well.

Anyway, I thought I'd amuse (or in my parents case - annoy) you with some of the better methods I found for procrastinating today. Advanced warning, some make me sound quite loony.

  • I taught my roommate chemistry a few hours before her final exam (yes I remember chem).
  • I learnt over 60 synonyms for the word "procrastinate" (my personal favourite is "boondoggle").
  • I cooked three meals but only actually ate a bowl of soup and many many bowls of Rice Krispies.
  • I spilled a handful of said Rice Krispies and counted them 3 times and found the average of those three times (123).
  • I played every new game on addictinggames.com
  • I cut the margins of the paper I was using for study notes so they would be "more presentable" when I eventually took notes on them.
  • I googled myself.
  • I looked my birthday up on wikipedia and realised that,apart from Catherine Zeta-Jones and Will Smith, I share it with William Faulkner and Eric Williams (my first prime minister and one of the most respected historians in the field of slavery).
  • I caused a heated debate between two Irish people about the partition between them and N. Ireland.
  • I had a personal revelation while watching an episode of In Plain Sight
  • I read "The Little Black Book of Beer"
  • I staged an impromptu ballet in my bedroom.
  • I blasted the Jedward version of Under Pressure just because it's THAT BAD. I also decided that Vanilla Ice is WAYYYYY hotter now that he's older. Jedward are decidedly not hot, like make-me-bang-my-head-into-the-wall-not-hot.
Okay those are the best ones I've got for you for now.
I am actually going to get to work...Oh Chaucer. *sigh*

Love you all ;)

  1. Wow. Ash....I've run out of words to describe how psychotic you are. Personally, I think you should've stuck to psychology so that you could psycho-analyse yourself!

    Jedward? I mean....really? And GROSS. How the hell could Vanilla Ice POSSIBLY be hot to you?! That's just sickening.

    Go enjoy your Rice Krispies and cardboard :P
    I love youuuu :)
