I have been thinking out creating a blog for awhile now. Everyone else is doing it, right?
Well, now is the most opportune time because I have so much to do--I need to keep my procrastination to a minimum. You see, I am in my last semester of graduate school. I spend many, many hours in front of my computer; therefore, most of my procrastinating happens in front of the computer. I will write a paragraph, then surf the Internet. I will write a paragraph, then check every email account I have (5, by the way). I will write a paragraph, and then check the message board for one of the classes I am taking (then read my previous posts just for fun). I rationalize these distractions as "breaks" because I don't actually leave my computer. If I got up and, say, cleaned my house, then I would feel guilty about not working. Therefore, this blog is just another way to keep me "focused." :)
After I graduate (in just under a month), I will continue to use this blog as a way to keep me "focused." Only then I will be procrastinating about cleaning my house, doing laundry, exercising...
