Ah yes, it is that time of the semester again where you realise you have to learn 12 weeks of work for 3 law subjects in less than a week and one lecturer has even been so mean as to make Personal Property Transactions a closed book exam. Surely now would be a good time to start studying right?
WRONG!!
This is the best time of the semester to procrastinate. I've discovered a number of ways, including but not limited to:
1. Writing a blog entry
2. Reading other people's blog entries
3. Looking up other degrees that don't turn you into a crazy, caffeine-addicted, sleep-deprived individual for 2 weeks every semester (or depending on the subjects, all semester)
4. Overusing the like button on facebook, so much so that facebook gives you an error message every time you now try
5. Cranking the music and dancing around your apartment instead of studying because you wish it was end of sem already so you could go out
6. Updating your facebook status every 5 minutes - and always with some form of 'I have no motivation to study'
7. Watching The Notebook (oh yes, I did)
8. Facebook stalking the guy you like (and don't look at me like that, I know you all do it too)
9. Watching the entire first season of the OC in one evening
10. Becoming that annoying person on facebook who comments on other people's conversations
11. Looking up stuff to put on www.pinterest.com (check it out if you want a great form of procrastination, it can entertain you for hours!)
12. Listening to Adele and getting angry because she doesn't convey the despair you feel at having to study law
13. Reading Twilight (I haven't been driven to do this yet, but I thought it was a good way to procrastinate if you're desperate enough)
14. Spend 2 hours setting up your wireless printer and test printing
15. Reading all the articles on www.survivelaw.com and wishing the authors weren't law students so they would post blogs more regularly (say a new one every half hour or so should keep me entertained)
16. Lying on your bed, staring at your ceiling, and wishing you had studied more during the semester
17. Going on a maccas run as a 'study break' even though you haven't studied for the past 4 hours
18. Looking up the dates when your favourite trashy tv shows like Gossip Girl are back, and writing the dates down in your diary so you don't forget
19. Watching Walk on the Wildside previews and laughing hysterically because you're caffeine-addicted and sleep-deprived (they really are pretty funny:
20. Spending a good hour thinking of all the ways you've procrastinated and writing a blog post about it instead of actually studying
Well, I think that's most of them so far but I'll keep you updated! Feel free to share if you have more to add, I'm sure there are many I'm missing!!
