Procrastinating once again
January 24, 2010I always hate it when I procrastinate. I guess anyone hates it when they can’t help but put off things that they’re supposed to be doing right at this moment. But despite how I hate it and how I much I tell myself that I will never again procrastinate and will always do my tasks in a timely manner, I can’t seem to keep it up for long. There are always so many distractions around me. To name some,
1. The Internet
- Yes, we all know it is a distraction. What with all the social networking sites out there like Facebook and Twitter. And let us not forget that I am maintaining a blog. Not just a blog, three blogs. And as of yesterday, four blogs. I know, I am crazy. But it’s become such a hobby. I love reading about people’s comments and writing about my thoughts - however mundane and uninteresting they are.
2. Books
- I LOVE books. I’m the type who can’t tear her eyes off a book, especially when things have just gotten interesting. As in I’m going to study for a while, take a break, and catch up some more on my reading (the loved book).
3. Food
- This is not a major distraction. But it is a distraction, nonetheless. Cookies, wafers, chocolate covered biscuits, chips! The list goes on.
4. TV
- Especially at nighttime, I can’t seem to stop watching Pinoy Big Brother once the TV’s on. Ah well, it’s fun!
I can think of some more distractions but those that I mentioned were the major ones (I think). Anyway, good luck to me on my Nat Sci 2 exam on Tuesday! I
Has anyone stumbled upon my blog yet?
November 30, 2009Just wondering. Haha. Cool! My third blog entry on my blog’s third day. Now, if only I could update my two other blogs this often. But then again, I just say weird and random stuff here. Ok, I say weird and random stuff there as well, but, er, not that random. :p
Btw, remember Beautiful Creatures? The book I was anxious to start reading? Well, I’m loving it! (though I’m not even a quarter into the book).
Back to reading!
Reading Anxiety
November 29, 2009I just finished reading Invisible Touch by Kelly Parra. Hooray! It took me a week to get through that one. Not that it isn’t good, cause it is. In fact, I loved it. I was just too burdened by school stuff that I wasn’t able to pick up the book as often and longer as I could or should have. Now, I have to write a review for that on my other blog - the one where I write book reviews on. Books on young adult fiction, mostly.
My next read: Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. I’ve heard A LOT of good things about this book. So far, I’ve yet to hear a negative review. Somehow, that kinda makes me hesitant to read this book right away. I don’t want to be disappointed, especially after feeling so ecstatic when I spotted this on Fully Booked. (I thought it would be out here in the Philippines on December!)
Though, of course, hesitant or not, I know I will be reading it soon. It seems like curiosity will get the better of me.
