procrastino, procrastinare

Great news. I have loads of work to do before the beginning of last week. Why is procrastination such a large and unwholesome part of my life? Some days I wake up and feel enthused about life and truly believe I can read two books, write an essay and complete two Latin assignments before night descends upon us (or at least by the early hours of the morning). Unfortunately today wasn’t one of those days, and unfortunately those things are defining features of my to-do list for today. So naturally I am blogging as a form of procrastination. I am unsure of how many locations across the UK the sun has been shining mercifully upon over the last few days. Personally, it has been of great use to me, not necessarily just to bask in the sun and top up a tan. No no, it is a well-known fact that sunshine is actually an excuse to avoid work, spend money and drink alcohol. As a student this suits me terrifically. The last few days have been spent doing absolutely nothing with complete justification. Today, however, I decided I would stay indoors, so as to avoid the sun/procrastination. As you can see, my day has not necessarily gone in the direction I had originally hoped. I expect, dear reader, supposing you are still reading, you are in a similar state of affairs as myself.  Unfortunately, the catalyst for this post was procrastination, so I in fact have nothing else to add. No longer may I distract you from whatever it is you are avoiding, but you must now return to your trivialities, whatever they may be, and complete the task at hand. Perhaps there’ll be a new post awaiting your return, or perhaps I’ll listen to my own advice and save the next post for a rainy day.
