Stuff on Procrastination
So, the problem I have that's keeping me from having fun, lowering my grades and messing up my life in general in many ways is that I waste time procrastinating. I've seen a lot of stuff on this pass by the internet and I'm supposed to know all the theory and stuff. Not that that's all you need to stop doing it, but I'll post stuff here anyways.

Cool stuff like this:

Reading this will get your mind set on stopping procrastinating and might give you some insight why you seem to not want to do stuff so badly. In many cases, it also has to do with internet addiction. Internet addiction isn't always in the extreme asian form where kids live in internet cafe's doing <insert mmorpg here>, but rather in the form of

- checking your emails every 2 minutes
- browsing youtube
- browsing social networking sites
- - and forums
- - and chatrooms
- - - when you know there's nobody online
- waiting for stuff to pop up on news sites

Let's face it, your emails, friends and news won't go away if you only check them every half hour for one minute. Instead of wasting all this time, just do your stuff! It'll make you feel satisfied. So if you're reading this because you think you have a similar problem, then stop researching it and just get to work!

ANYONE who does that stuff is Out Of My Boundries for Comprehension.

I just check EP in my spare time cause I know there'll be something interesting to read.

Like the "cutest girls in anime" thread - pure value for life ^_^

how is checking your email every 1/2 hour not extreme?

I check my email on average once every like 2 days.

Lately I've been spending an excessive amount of time on EP, but that's cause it was school holidays, and now uni has just started = little work = I've got a whole lot of nothing to do. So I've got an excuse for that.

When uni gets busy, the allocation of time will no longer allow me to spend heaps and heaps of time on EP anymore.

Wee shall keep in mind that EP is one of few places that has a wonderful range of topic topics to choose from and quite a lot of people intelligent enough to delve into an interesting conversation with - be it PSP Hacking - Technology - Graphics - Anime Value or something completely different wee will find here.

There are TOO MANY Forums that are literally just a waste of time..

It's the worst when the final exams come for uni...

You feel that way, yet, you somehow have to force yourself to work straight without stopping with like 3 hours sleep every day, for like a week (Well, at least for someone like me, who slacks off on the work normally, so when the exams comes, is always in a bad position.Sadist)

And I can't just slack off. Because if I fail it, I have to RE-DO the whole semester. So 1 week'o'hell for me.
