Slack weekend...

This weekend is unlike the past few weekends which i had since sch reopened for me 5 weeks ago. I had been studying and going back to schools on weekends since the very beginning of school. For Projects meetings etc. Been reading up for lessons, doing prep questions for lessons etc etc.

But this week, something is really weird. STarting from yesterday. A Friday. And i had nothing to do. As in nothing that i do are related to sch stuff. I went to JB (Johor) with Eugene. Just to relax and slack. Spent the whole day there eating and watch movie and eating. Getting fat and add on to my already 'rocket high' body fat content!!

And today. EVen though i didn't go out, i didn't put my time to good use. Been sitting in front of my damn com for the whole day. Trying to do some school work but can't make myself follow through on all of them. IT goes like this: I would pick up a textbook, read at most 2 page and u'll begin to feel sick of it and chuck it aside. THen i would call some friends up, chat for a while. And when my friend can't take anymore of my shit, i'll decide to have another go at studying. And then the same routine simply just repeat itself.

I did managed to finish a movie titled 'thank you for smoking'. My perception of the movie wasn't really that good initially. But the show proved it's worth after a while. It's really quite nice. I like it and i would recommend u guys to check it out too.... ANyway below is the poster of the show. Interesting huh? haha. And guess what? Instead of pulling myself together and start studying, i am going to play mahjong with my sister and her friends! manz. This is like the 3 time we are playing together since school have started for me! HAHAa... HOpe i'll win!

IT would be good if i am to win, cos i will be going for an expensive (according to me) high tea tomorrow afternoon to 'celebrate' the birthdays of 2 of my best friends --- Ah fat and TErence. SO yea. What choice do i have? HAHa. Okok, gonna play Mahjong now, My sis is back. Ciao.....

Procrastination Revisited.

Procrastination. This seems to be the 'in' thing nowadays. EVerybody ard me are using it. Proj mates from SMu, friends outside etc etc. Everyone at one time or other are always pushing things back, thinking that someday, they will get down to doing it. Someday. That's it

This word / process / action, whatever u wanna call it is deeply integrated with the way i think, the way i do things etc. It influence me in almost everything that i do. Nothing is ever done beforehand these days. Or at least not for me.

Reports that's coming due does not get a brief attendance with me untill when it's urgent enough.

I still vaguely remember the rare days that i can stretch out lazily on my huge queen size bed. Although i didn't change a new bed or whatsoever, somehow, the size of the bed seemed to have shrinked quite a bit. Now it looks like a super single r something like that. Long gone are the days where i could tose and turn on my bed. All that i could do now is to lie still and get my damn sleep! THe sad truth is that one third of the bed is too often than not covered with clothes that are waiting to be folded and shelved. THat's the right side. THe left side are full of the unnecessary stuff that i have on my bed, like DVDs (at least 10 of them), Phone, extra pillows etc, caps, belts. You name it and u shall find it!

Just take a look at the last frequency of my blog entries these days and u should be able to see he works of procrastination. It really took me a lot of determination to log in and write this entry instead of giving in and telling myself that i will write this some other time.

This phenomenon should be labelled as one of the deadly sins and join ranks with the existing 7 deadly sins. For the benefit of those who have no *ucking idea what are the 7 deadly sins: Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy and Pride.

For now, i would like to state one of my 'resolution for the new year' (although 3 months had already past): I, Kwok Shi Yong (Nick), hereby swear that i would to the very best of my ability (given my weak determination and all) try to fight procrastination..... hahaha

Procrastination

Below is an entry by one of my best friend. So, enjoy. Yup:

Procrastination

Definiton from Cambridge Online: to keep delaying something that must be done, often because it is unpleasant or boring.

Procrastinate abt waking up every weekday morning: Because at the very worst, i can call in sick

Procrastinate abt kicking that morning coffee habit : Because I need it to truly wake up.

Procrastinate abt skipping yet another drinking session: Because that’s the only social life that i have and seriously, what else can a single woman do?

Procrastinate abt going for that very much needed but dreaded gym session: Because the doc ordered me to rest for three month due to my injured ankle.

Procrastinate abt giving up that scoop of ice cream after my dinner: Because what’s life without desserts???

Procrastinate abt finding back the friends that i have lost along the way : Because that’s how life work. True friends are there to stay no matter how long i take to find them back.

Procrastinate abt reconciling with the friends that i have somhow started a cold war with : Because I am sick and tired of all their nonsense. They need to grow up too.

Procrastinate abt letting that someone into my life: Because I am not worthy of the man that is worthy of me, and the man that is worthy of me is not worth it.

Procrastinate abt submiiting this post: well.. at least i have done it NOW..
