Procrastination, the key to nothing

Exams start in T minus 10 days. They're the final stretch to my having a degree. The only problem is, I just CAN'T settle into the learning. And it's a relatively large problem.

Hi, my name is Robyn and I am a procrastinator.
It's not my fault really, it's just that there are SO many things that I HAVE to do before I could possibly even think about studying.

I NEED to sort out my room, desk, stationary. I NEED to tidy my cupboard. I NEED to have some tea and a cupcake. I NEED to think about which subject to start with. I NEED to organise ALL my books so I can slip into study mode quickly and efficiently. I NEED more tea. I NEED to have a bath and then paint my toenails. I NEED to make dinner, eat it and do the dishes. I NEED to watch Private Practice while I eat dinner (saving time, in my mind at least). I NEED to sleep now because I'm so tired and surely I'll study better tomorrow if I get a good nights sleep tonight?!?

Never mind the non-studying I'm doing right now typing this.

I need to now rearrange my desk so I can get better light to read under. Then have a snack and THEN study. (although I'll probably only get a half hour in before I think of something else I MUST do, or I'll need to wee.)

It's ok, it's not like the rest of my life is pending on the out come of these exams...

Hoping for some focus,

A Call for Simpler Times

To quote Snow Patrol "If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world."

It seems that the more days that pass, the busier the weekends are, and the more complex and interwoven our lives become! More and more, I feel the need to just lie and do nothing. I see my 'lovely other dinosaur' on the weekends only, due to distance, sometimes only every 2 weeks... and when we are together there never seems to be any time to just do nothing, or go for a picnic just because it's saturday and there's no where else we need to be! (I love picnics! :) )

Not sure if it's because I am, finally, 21 (yesterday) or if I'm just going through a period of epiphanies... but I have made a conscious decision to cut out the excess in my life, in an attempt to simplify, slow down, and really enjoy what's happening around me! Time to delete the friends that take take take and don't give anything back... the fakeness in attempts to keep everyone happy...
Time to grow the balls to be able to call people out when they're NOT being lovely at all!

Most importantly, it's time to forget about everyone else and learn to focus on myself. In my dreams, when I'm who, what, where I want to be and wearing the things I want to, instead of feel compelled to, I will attract the kind of people I still people inherently are.

Not to take anything away from my special friends I already have, they're truely amazing, inspiring, THERE!

Hoping to make sense out of what's going on...
