Reading, walking, asking my dad something random about what we're watching on the history channel (trust me it works)

YWS
webcomics

The internet in general, I guess... *sigh*

And reading... and movies...

Yeah... Bad me... It's funny that we are admitting our faults right here on the thing which is causing the faults. Bad us...

*goes right on procrastinating*

YWS, Solitaire, YouTube (I'm a complete sucker for German death metal AMVs), and Paint Shop Pro.

I hear people in the UK say procrastinate all the time XD 'speshlly now we're near exams.

The internet and my DS are my biggest downfalls. The latter is portable to it whittles away my studying time at college too.

Aye, the internet is killer.

I'm especially addicted to Youtube and Fiction Press.

Photoshop is a biggie too.

INTERNET!!!!
Mostly email.
And most recently, surfing YWS.
Like right now, I really should be doing homework.
But I'm not.
I'm replying to this.
XD
Nah, it's email and YWS making me procrastinate homework, and doing that makes me have less time for sleeping, not to mention writing.
It's a darned bad habit.
Any tips on how to break it??? Razz

Not really, which is why I've been up until midnight all week and haven't written anything.

Video games, big time

also music and internet, but not as much as video games
particularly Halo 3 and Guitar Hero 3, pure awesome distilled into entertainment.

StumbleUpon (the greatest toolbar known to man) has distracted me from just about everything. I have to agree with Loose and say that long showers and eating help me procrastinate as well.

Right now I'm procrastinating from writing my plot summary for a new story so I won't forget. Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
