Anyway, you want to know what to do while procrastinating? Well you've come to the right place because I am a professional procrastinator.
1. Watch Netflix
Gossip Girl, 90210, How I Met Your Mother, Grey's Anatomy, Parenthood, Top Gear, Breaking Bad, movies, documentaries, and a shit ton more under this category that help you pass the time bye when you're supposed to write that 8 page research paper by midnight and you've only written one sentence.
Hulu and TV also count under this!
2. Go on an Adventure
Go hiking, to a waterfall, drive around, eating, or just explore around town/campus. This is a great way to get exercise in or hang out with friends!
I'll include exercising in here too! If you aren't doing homework, you might as well work out!
3. Crafts
This one I have a MAJOR connection with. I do this all the time. Like yesterday, I waited to do homework until 10 pm because I just didn't feel like it. I watched Netflix all day, but I also painted! I love painting, crafting, planning, and all sorts of creative shit! It passes time and makes for cute decoration.
4. Social Media
At the library, in my room, study rooms, restaurants, whenever! When in doubt, social media is always a go to. Instagram, YouTube, SnapChat, Twitter, Facebook, Vine, Tumblr, and many more! Social Media ruins today's society because no one focuses on what's going on around them. People only want to go on adventures and do things to see how many views it'll get on snapchat and likes on instagram and retweets on twitter. It has become out every day lives, every second to please those on social media. But for some reason, I LOVE it. Just as everyone else does. I love being able to keep in contact with those who don't live near me anymore. It's a big thing! Obviously blogging too (me rn).
5. Food
Food is always amazing. Of course, everyone needs to eat so why not do it in the procrastination period? Food is love, food is life
6. Music
Listen to music. Shit, listen to music when you aren't procrastinating! Music is the best thing that's ever been invented. It's the best thing ever. Want to discover new music? Listen to Alessia Cara. She's so amazing.
7. Sleep
Take a nap, but make sure to set an alarm! Say you have a paper due in the morning before your 8am class. It's 4 pm and you don't want to start your paper. Take a nap, but set a 2 or 3 hour alarm because you don't want to be stuck staying up all night to write it. Because let's be serious, I know you guys haven't written a single sentence of that paper even though it's the night before. Which is okay. You just need to give yourself enough time to sleep and finish the paper!
8. Games
I can't tell you how much I love playing Kim Kardashian Hollywood. I'm not ashamed either. I fucking love the Kardashian's. So of course, the second I got an iphone, I downloaded it and started playing. Now, I'm proud to say I'm a B list celebrity. Lol I'm lame
Anyway, playing a game for a bit on your phone, Xbox, Nintendo, PlayStation, computer, etc is a great way to pass the time before, after, or during studying! Again, I'd set alarm so you don't lose track of time and actually finish your work!
9. Party
Go to a frat party, friends house, whatever. Let lose. Have fun. Too much studying can drive someone INSANE. Trust me, I know first hand. So go have fun. But don't get too drunk and be safe!
There are a million other ways to procrastinate, but these are my top ones.
No, I'm not telling you to procrastinate, I'm just saying we all do it so why not help you figure out what to do when you don't want to do your work.
I will say, don't waste too much time. Get your shit done. Don't procrastinate so long you can't finish your homework in time. A good thing I've found is to do one assignment, then scroll through social media, do another assignment, write a blog post, do another, watch an episode on Netflix or a YouTube video. Give yourself a break in between assignment, but just made sure to actually accomplish what you need to do.
I hope you enjoyed my procrastination post and that it helped. I mean, for all I care, lay on your bed staring at the ceiling for an hour thinking about puppies (I may have done this before). Procrastination is just something that comes along with school. For those of you who "don't procrastinate" OH OKAY sure think pal.
Do your work.
Have an A1 day bitchachos!
