As a student, it takes a lot to distract my kind from our work... THAT IS THE BIGGEST LIE IN THE WORLD! The word student should come in the dictionary as a synonym for procrastinator!
When I am in London I practically live in the library, because it is the only place where outer influences do not retract me from my studies. However, it is currently Christmas Vacations and I am a sucker for laying down in my pj's all day doing anything far from productive!
Procrastination truly is an art! It takes a great deal of outer influences and suggestiveness for one to consider interrupting the creative flow... Unless of course the creative flow was not there in the first place! Technological advancements do not help at all. A computer's capability to have several windows open is inviting to the temporary distraction one requires, when you have been engaged in hours of endless thinking. Brain-processing needs a break as well, and things such as Facebook, Spotify, Myspace, BBC news or what ever else you seem to look at, provides the right amount of release. [let us not forget blogger, currently detracting me from script writing!]
Facebook is the worse of them all though! There are certain people that should not be allowed to have facebook... either myself for having way too much to do on it, or HIM for being online when I would rather he would never have that facility. If HE was not online, EVER, or did not have facebook, I would not have a reason to sit and wait. As well as the fact that my best friends all have facebook as well, and they often invite me over or to do something, that in theory should take an hour, but stretches out to 3 or 4 in the midst of conversation and banter... Procrastination is an art advocated by the development of personal stress-releasing techniques, that aim to distract ones mind from the principle aim of GETTING SOMETHING DONE!
Should really get on with this script... But David is on facebook, and him and I always have a long-winded laughter filled conversation on some random something. At least let us thank the lords that HE is not online.
