A break for procrastination.

This isn't a post I expected to be writing any time soon, as since I've been at Uni I seem to have been a master of procrastination, playing games, socialising with the flatmates, going out when I can, and generally trying to embrace the uni experience. However today, on a day where, taking me by surprise I have been rather homesick for some reason, I decided enough was enough, it was time to stand up against procrastination. So after a long session of playing Mario Kart, and watching films, I said to myself "Liam, get up stop being lazy and do some work", and I turned off the TV, brought my laptop upstairs, shoved some music on and stayed away from that procrastination inducing game!! Began to work aaaaaaand....have now found procrastination temptation in blogging....oh well, it was good while it lasted. BUT I'm sure I'll go back to working after this post, and I have done quite a bit of work....while also signing into skype...HEY! Laptops hold both my University work, and the possibility for educational development but also hold the most tempting and wonderful of all evils; The Internet, great and powerful in its own way, blogging, watching YouTube videos, skype friends, checking Facebook....oh the list goes on and it begins to build and build til I begin to give up on working. No fear there is always a solution! Insane half of me: "So sane half of Liam, you've written 3 film reviews since you've been up here, take your time, go on the internet for a little while, chill out, 'ave a cider, relax, put your feet up...fall over because your seat is too small for you to put your feet up without that happening.... then write one more review, go downstairs socialise...THEN WORK WORK WORK TOMORROW!! .... and procrastinate again because thats fun... Maybe do some writing, your course is about writing, that counts as work, right?! maybe...a bit of blogging...that's kind of writing, its creative....I suppose Facebook and twitter are also a type of creative writing... I mean just a look at all the imaginative bull some people write on them!" ... Just to explain this post a little bit, I'm a little tired, a little hyper, indulging in some procrastination so there is really no structure to this post what so ever, so that's cool. moving on from my insanity and to something a little more concrete, I'm going to end it here with this little message, with the hopes that other students like myself wont make themselves go insane with the fear of procrastination. Students everywhere, know this, working hard for a long period of time can be bad for you...in the same way that chugging alcohol til you fall over is bad for you in the morning, so don't fear what you might call procrastination, because chances are its not always so certain as that. You see, you can have breaks with work, it's not procrastinating its stopping you from losing your mind, no essay, no review, no blog for that matter is going to be of any considerably perfect content if you've exhausted your mind to the point of no return! A break is healthy. Procrastination is the complete avoidance of a task from the beginning, whereas, stopping working for half an hour or so is healthy, and is the correct way of going at things, you'll return to working with a more engaged mind, and a happier mood. So go forth students of this world and give yourself a break every once in a while!!
