Procrastinating

Trying to sort out my working life today. I have three essays due in for two weeks time. I'm feeling more productive than usual, however, there are a few stumbling blocks that my computer has placed in front of me. Perhaps writing this post is causing procrastination, actually, it DEFINITELY is causing procrastination. I went to Hatherley last night, was quite fun - had a perfect amount of wine to cause the desired effect of both fun and sensibility. Woke up early and haven't really accomplished as much work as I had hoped to do. I'm new at this.

10:39pm Definitely a less than productive day. I hope I'll pick things up tomorrow. I wish I could exactly pinpoint what exactly went wrong with my day - it had such a promising start. Despite this negativity, I did manage to sort my desk out so that it is more streamlined and more work-friendly. I'm three days into this diary trial and I hope it will become habit soon. I think it's really good to just lay out all my thoughts per day. Also, 750 words is the perfect number, balancing consistency and practicality. I hope it's a habit I'll form soon enough. I've often considered diary-keeping, however my lack of willpower and my gender stereotype let me down.

Most people like me when they meet people but I have more polarised views on them. Coming to university has especially solidified my views and opinions about myself. This is especially sur...

...that it had gotten so out of hand. The final solution to this issue must lie with a more conservative approach to my daily routine and really getting myself into the patterns during the evening times. (Probably should keep writing this to the daytimes!) My final secret resolution - this is the easy one; is to continue my interest and passion for making my own food. I really don't stop to think enough what considerable achievement over the last year has actually taken place. I still have occasional cravings and such but it's at a very controllable level. I think three goals makes this very achievable and like all good plans for the future, these plans are designed to work with each other to produce pleasing results.

I really have to get this work out of the way! Also, I wonder if my writing is improving. I'll look on-line to see if I can try and improve this skill..
