Procrastinators unite!.... tomorrow.

In college, (which was all of two months ago) it was hilarious to put things off and stress and pull all nighters and still pass. Now that I've graduated... this hilarious habit is no longer 'cool.'

Things I want to put off:
1. applying for things that will put me in positions to succeed
2. study for a test that I need to take to be a linguist
3. make the major life decision of WHAT I'M DOING
4. finish writing my book and finding a publisher
5. okay, basically if it's not eating or painting, I'm not ready to do it.

I think there must be some sort of balance between being content where you are and being complacently lazy. I have yet to find that balance.

Yes, I have told myself that I will be moving on to different surroundings this fall.... but SAYING this and taking the steps to MAKE IT HAPPEN are like when I knew when my astronomy test was, and decided to study that day... this is real life now and I can't treat it like a pre-test!

While I would rather get paid to smoke hookah and write every day of my awesome life, I am learning to stop looking at facebook (and the nine other ridiculous social mediums I have fallen in to) and start planning so that when I look back at my life, I have adventures to remember.

Also, when I leave I'm getting a cat,
and I'm naming him bucket.
