Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
So many ways to procrastinate, so little time.
How do you procrastinate? How do you not procrastinate?
Per ebeth’s request, a thread on procrastination.

I procrastinate only with homework and writing. I don’t know why. Sometimes I just do it, then get on my work when I have to, and sometimes it happens for MONTHS and it’s really bad until suddenly I get back into the flowing mode and work really hard and THEN play. When a teacher assigns a thing over a few days, I do it on the last. It’s dumb, it’s not well-planned-I know, but still, I can’t help it. I only started doing it this year. Don’t know why.
Hello, Ebeth, and AJR, by the way. Never did say hi. So hello, and welcome to the Museblog. Mae govannen. (Which reminds me, I need to go work on my Elvish…)

I procrastinate by using the internet, like right now- I was going to practice, but then mom said that the new muse had come and so of course I had to read it and then get on here and tell you guys all of my utterly invaluable and pointless thoughts about it that probably no one will read anyway..

Yeah, I’m procrastinating on my homework as we speak.

I procrastinate on everything (except, perhaps, reading Muse and/or LOTR and/or manga.) Especially cello practices, writing and hw. There’s this paper I’m supposed to be typing right now. But I really don’t feel like doing it. So instead, I’m writing pointless stuff on procrastination. Whee!

You know, I procrastinate by eating. Which is really really really bad, I know, but I can’t help it. Oh well.

Currently at the moment I am procrastinating fom writing a speech on some sort of current event to give Thursday. I still have to research it, write it, and memorize it, so I have promised myself that I will do it tomorrow. (And I really mean that!!!!!)
0

Okay, I’m going to do it today! I also need to read three sonets and start reading a poem for a class I am taking on John Milton. I put off doing it all week, and I can’t put it off any longer.
0
0
wait, I thought you were homeschooled?
0
0
I am, but someone agreed to teach a class on Milton for the home-school group. It’s on Mondays at 10:15, and being in a classroom enviroment is a really weird experience for me!
0
0
being home-schooled would be hard for me, just because i generally try to get out of whatever my mom tells me to do. (arrgh, bad influence alert! cover your eyes! don’t read my procrastinating, disobeying posts!) plus i think it’s easier to make friends in school. but that’s just what i think.
I’m procrastinating on geometry homework…we’re doing 2-column proofs…i really hate them…logical thinking is great and all but all that step-by-step stuff bugs me. plus the theorems you have to memorize. and postulates. I see no point in postulates at all. arrrgh. I finished my history though hooray.
soo…boring details about nothing, posted for procrastination purposes…
we ate din-din at applebee’s. applebee’s good. fettuccine alfredo good. yum.
omg i was just called downstairs for…organic chocolate. yes, organic chocolate. wow. one was 59% and the other was 75% chocolate!! yuuuuuuuum…i feel special now.
this has motivated me. i’m gonna go do my homework (aka steal more chocolate)
oh yah montgomerygurl, what time do you have to get up in the morning for home-schooling? do you have like a specific schedule or what?
0
0
I get up whenever I feel like it, as long as I keep on getting my school work done every day. I don’t have a schedule, I just do what I want to in whatever order I want to. I have friends from church that I see Sundays, Wednesdays, and every other Saturday. There is also a home-school group that has the Milton class on Mondays, and Speech and debate on Thursdays. Also, this week I have 4-H and skating, plus there is always phone and E-mail, so we all keep in touch.

Okay, I have sorta-kinda-halfway-not-really written the speech. I still need to work on it some more, though. I procrastinated on the sonnets right up to the last minute. I was brushing my hair with one hand, and hold a sonnet at eye level with the other. It was really bad. I just realized that I was supposed to work on a case of sleep vs. fun for debate, and now I am procrastinating that.
0
0
I finished the speech! Now I get to procratinate memorizing it… I haven’t even started on the case for debate. It might never get written. My grandparents are coming Thursday, so now I am procrastinating cleaning my room and vacuuming for that.

hey everyone!!!! I don’t feel like doing my math homework so I decided to just hang out on the computer. (there’s nothing else to do anyways) I have off today but tommorow is time for school (aka waking up at 5:30-6:00) oh boy!! (NOT) My sis is driving me up the wall today!! (actually she does that every day) My HW is from Wed. because I was in Michigan (the best place in the USA in my opinion!!) to watch a football game which I still have no clue what the point of the game is. Michigan plays Pen State on S@urday so my neighborhood will be in an uproar all over a game I don’t Know how to play!!!
Strange don’t you think?
I didn’t always live in PA so I feel no reason to root for PA when my dad is a U of M ( University of Michigan the best college in my opinion) fan.
I could call classlines and find out my HW but I think I’ll wait until
about hmmmmm… never!!!

noooooo!!!! MSU!! MSU!!! MSU!!!
sry i used to live in michigan and my mom went to MSU. plus i like their colors better. plus they have a cool bball team.

i’m procrastinating on a project.
hey i know i’ll tell u all what i’m doing tomarrow.
*ahem* first of all, messed up schedule because we have to take the PLAN test.
then i go to a 20 min. latin class to take the chap. 6 test.
more useless 20 min. classes…

boring review…
half hour band practice after school (cuz our new routine sucks and the band isn’t suppose to suck cuz if we suck we can’t laugh at all the other bands that suck. yah i’m real cheerful today huh? lol!)
random stuffins…
thursday off yay!
friday i have no clue what i’m doing. i’m not a plan-ahead person. football game i guess. science test. probably way too much hw…
ok procrastinating makes me hungry. I’m gonna go eat+procrastinate some more. hope you enjoyed that lovely picture out of my insanely boring life…(arrrgh hw makes me depressed)
this is probably called a way-too-long post. blahblahblah…procrastination…i want pretzels. who else here loves pretzels? ok now i’ll stop commenting on pretzels and start eating them

Okay, I have to *counts on fingers* clean my room, get all my scarpbooking stuff up, write that stupid case for debate, memorize my speech, help clean up the whole house, get my sheets washed and remake my bed, and vacuum, all before 10:30 Thursday morning! Gggrrrrr!!!! I wish I didn’t have such a busy week!!
0
0
You know MontgomeryGurl you wouldn’t have such a busy week if you hadn’t procrastinated… but what am I doing I procrastinate all the time!!!!
Also Ebeth/Lurker I was born in Ohio and even I think they’re crazy!!! My uncle loves Ohio so much that he almost drove my cousins over the border to be born in Ohio!!!!!
While at the game I found the most horrible thing on the golf course!! BUCKEYE nuts were scattered all over the course!!!!!!!! It was horrific!!!! Tremendously horrific!!!!!!
0
0
Actually, my week would be just as busy even if I hadn’t procrastinated, because I couldn’t have done any of that stuff earlier!!
Go Mississippi State University!!!!! Both my parents graduated from there, and they got married while my dad was still going. Everyone in my family and my dad’s family is a total MSU freak! (My MSU, not ebeth’s) I don’t hang around during football or basketball games, because if we lose everyone gets REALLY mad!!!

Oh, I mean I don’t hang around the T.V. with my dad and brothers during games because things get pretty ugly.

ooh. my dad’s more into soccer.
wheee! i just finished my project! except now i have to bring the computer back downstairs. so i can’t post random b-day stuff at midnight. arrgh.
I’m here in spirit!!!
just while everybody’s talking about where they’re from, i’ll say i’m from da u.p. eh? In MI. Then I moved to Grand Rapids when i was about 3. then i just moved to ohio. if you want ramblings about where all my distant relatives came from i can do that too. whee! what fun. ok my dad was born in florida. my nana and granddad are both from England (which is why i have zillions of unknown cousins and things there.) (ooh! has anybody heard of cantebury bears? the teddy bear place? that’s some of my unknown cousins. whee!) my mom came from bay city, MI. her distant relatives came from ireland, and i have a theory that they came to ireland from italy, cuz everybody thinks my mom’s italian.
wow that’s long. wait is that allowed? like, will the GAPAs post that? i dunno…*fingers crossed*
but they’re mostly distant relations right? hoom…oh vell…i’ll try it. clicky time!

I’m putting off cleaning my room, don’t wanna do it at all. I’m also dreading memorizing that stupid speech!!!! Gosh, I have so much to do, why am I on here? Oh, that’s right….
I was born in North Carolina, and I moved to MS when I was six. I moved around in there untill I was 13, then I came here. My grandparents live in Mississippi. I have aunts and uncles in, let’s see, Maryland, Alabama, Mississippi and Colorado. I have no idea where in Europe I come from, but I know I did.

Snow? You probably think it doesn’t snow in the desert! It did! It looked really funny! All the cacti had little tufts of snow stuck on the prickles. Ask Feather (my favorite Muse) what a cactus (plural–cacti) is if you don’t know
KitKat (not Uck anymore!)
I’ve made a big deal about this…

and science too. actually i’m procrastinating on looking up the right answers on that one…i just did it but i’m pretty sure i got it all wrong. i guessed on everything. so i gots to look up the right answers but i doesn’t feel like it no we don’t precious…
Kitkat! I’m ashamed of you! that’s a terrible thing to resolve! Start procrastinating right this minute! Or tomarrow…or the next day…or in a million years…

yes it’s the history project again…only difference is, it’s due tomarrow. and i have costume crew from 6:30-9:30…either i get it done now or stay up late. so far it’s looking like staying up late. been messing around w/my ipod shuffle all day…stupid thing wouldn’t work until like yesterday cuz of some random thing my dad did accidentally…typical technology. gotta press the random button…
anyhoo, so i’m procrastinating. on stuff. yah. random question time!!!
why do we have paved roads? why bother traveling? if cars cause so much trouble, why not just stay put? why do we need everything so quickly? why can’t we just say it’ll get there when it gets there? why do bugs have so many eyes? why did my little brother steal my cd and lose it? why is my friend never online? why am i sitting here listening to penny lane and typing random questions instead of doing my homework like a good student? why am i still seeing my valve oil on my desk instead of in my trumpet case at school (which i couldn’t see..but oh well) i gotta take that back…why are the apple headphones so small? they’re like…earphones…except they keep falling out of your ears…arrgh. why do we have school off friday? (mwahahaha..not complaining though ) why does school food taste so bad? are they trying to empty the cafeteria or something? (probably…everybody that can drives drives out of there sooo fast…it clears up the lines a lot…i want my driver’s license arrgh) why would anybody paint their car bright neon-ish green? *puts on sunglasses* why am i still procrastinating, even though i will have no time tonight and will be up forever? why do teachers try to give us big projects anyway? they know nobody’s gonna take any time on them. why did we run out of choklit? 
i’m dying…lol! 
ok i’m gonna go do my homework now…i think…maybe…ish…

wow, this is, like, the first time I’m on here. I am not procrastinating per se, just taking a break, because tomorrow I’m getting a Hebrew test from a teacher who hates my guts on the tense “Hifiel”. I have to memorize past, future, and present tense feminine singular, feminine multiple, neutral singular and multiple, and masculine singular na dmultiple, plus vocabulary! aaaahhh! I’m going to fail anyway because I fail EVERY SINGLE TEST THAT TEACHER GIVES, so I don’t know why I’m bothering, even.

I’m procrastinating. again. I really don’t want to pretend i work at a textile mill. grr.
it is random question time!!! i should write a theme song for that…
anyhoo.
why have i not yet bothered to unpack the last box of random junk? why is it so dark? it’s giving me the uncomfortable feeling of lateness…and me w/out my hw done…why does the submit button look sort of 3-d? why am i so tired? why don’t we have a vacation already? no wonder the Chairman’s getting depressed…i’m about to follow him…why do I not get on with my hw already? would it help if i actually looked at exactly what the assignment was? why have i not been to the library for a week and a half? (note to self: put that on my list of “Why I Never Have Anything To Do But Homework”) why is this chair so squeaky? why does the yellow spiral notebook on my desk suddenly seem like an ominous foreshadowing of doom? why do we have to play chameleon for chair tryouts? nobody knows that song except the seniors, cuz they played it their freshman year. they’re all gonna get the first chairs. of course they were gonna do that anyway. it’s almost inevitable. why is there a light flashing on and off in the house across the street? what is the answer to life, the universe, and everything? why do i even care? why don’t i have any choklit? why do i spend so much time on this site anyway? how many qs have i asked already? wow…a lot. why is the little comment box so small? what’s that thing at the bottom that says subscribe to the comments via RSS feed? what is RSS feed anyway? what does it do? is it better to subscribe to the comments via RSS feed? via RSS feed as opposed to what? how else could we subscribe to the comments? what exactly does that mean anyway? i’m really thirsty. why am i so thirsty? i’m going. need waaaaater.
