Favourite wastes of time

Admittedly, I am a huge procrastinator. Not huge physically, obvz, but huge as in "my capacity to". I can procrastinate for even the simplest tasks. Like planning my course schedule for next year, or doing the laundry. Anything. In fact, I have such little determination that I have missed classes because of my laziness/ability to procrastinate getting ready or finding my purse/book bag, etc. It's really that bad.

For anyone who is not as adept as I (I'm not proud of this, at least not totally) at procrastinating, here are some of my favourite things to do that facilitate my procrastination. Enjoy (as much as I do)!

1. Team Fortress 2. Seriously, I've mentioned this before (I think), one of the BEST VIDEO GAMES EVER. I'm not a big video game fan, but this is so addictive and fun and not as nerdy as might be expected. According to Wikipedia, it is a "team-based first-person shooter multiplayer" video game. Basically, there are several classes (medic, soldier, scout, spy, heavy, pyro, demo, engineer, sniper) that you can choose to play, and your team competes against another to complete missions (capture the flag, standing on checkpoints, etc). It's simple in theory, but amazing. My favourite class is spy. You get to sneak around and fulfill any childhood aspirations you had to be James Bond (becoming invisible, sapping sentry guns and backstabbing opponents). Sounds great, right? Youtube it to check it out.


2. Shopping. This is self explanatory, I think. While commuting to school, I have the option of subwaying to several major shopping districts. Needless to say, I have been late (and/or missed) to class because of this. However, I have a great closet to show for it :)
   
3. Wikipedia. My intellectual side likes to read and research things. My lazy side hates doing school-related reading. Wikipedia allows me to learn without scholastic pressure!


4. Youtube. I love finding funny things and forwarding them to friends. Like, Charlie Bit Me. Comedic gold!!


5. Running. This is my healthy waste of time. So, technically, it's a complete waste of time (my heart and thighs :( appreciate it).


6. Television or movies. I won't lie, I'd do these things even without motivation. I love television. I'm not one to watch just for watching, but certain shows I can schedule my life around. And I love movies.


7. (Sort of) Blogging. I haven't gotten that into blogging yet, but I can see this happening in the future... :P

That's all! How do you waste your time and/or avoid completing projects?

Daisy for "Daisy".

For all who might be curious, my pseudonym was inspired by a perfume I came across and basically love-at-first-smelled in Sephora (love!). Not surprisingly, I'm talking about Daisy by Marc Jacobs. It smells delicious (not delicious like food, but delicious like you wash your laundry with Gain and you can't stop sniffing the linens).

According to Marc Jacobs (the brand, not man), the fragrance is meant to be "happy and youthful". Its top notes are wild strawberry and red grapefruit with floral notes to follow (gardenia, violet, jasmine), finally, its base includes musk, vanilla and white woods. It's not overly sweet like many perfumes that are fruity or citrus-y. Overall Daisy is a sheer, "sunny" scent that isn't overpowering or headache-inducing. Its my daytime scent that I think is suitable for class, shopping, and basically any other casual affairs.

Plus, the bottle is cute, right? I'm not a huge perfume fan, but I lurvvve Daisy. I'm trying to think of other scents that I've bought into... Light Blue (by Dolce & Gabbana), is all that I can readily recall. My preferences are a bit juvenile, I'll admit, I generally prefer light, citrus or floral scents that don't give me a headache (most perfumes make me dizzy :( ).

Sooo, what are your favourite fragrances? Have you ever tried Marc Jacobs' Daisy?

PostSecret.

:o!

Holy canoli! (sp?) I didn't realize that I haven't posted in almost 20 days!

Jeeze. I was worse than I thought!

PS I might get a new dog.

It looks something like this:

Fucking adorable, right? (This isn't the actual dog, but it's got a similar vibe..?). She's a rescue.

This will bring my dog total to three. Which is the legal limit in my town, hahaha. I will end up a dog lady as an old person. Cat ladies are so passé (kidding! They are... timeless? Ha!).

Hmmm. That is all.
