Le Lazy...


Mom, Dad, if you are ever reading this, don’t  read further, its just me trying to teach the other students how to manage their time and do It perfectly like me , meaning:  waking up at 7 am,  have a good breakfast , go to all classes, have a  healthy 3-course lunch,  spend my evenings studying, socialize for an hour or so over grape juice with friends discussing about global warming and economy matters and head to bed by 9.30, ready to wake up all fresh and embrace the next day singing “It’s a beautiful day” with a happy hop on my walk.

The irony here is that it has been three days that I planned on writing this. I should just stop It right here and you would get exactly what was the purpose of it but since I’m too lazy to study It’s either this or tightening up my room. (Typing on the keyboard though…such a pain, why couldn’t we just stare at the screen and have our thoughts writing themselves ? Come on technology, hurry up! )

I woke up today to a gorgeous sunny Sunday. It was so beautiful that I really considered getting up to open the window… Two hours later I did open it and since I was up I thought I should make some coffee and think of the next thing to procrastinate on. While doing so, I looked at my reflection on the window …beautiful as always, don’t get any wrong ideas, but I could’ve really used some more energy reflecting in my face. And then I thought, meh… so what that my navy lips from last night’s grape juice and messy hair don’t  send the image of the energetic me at 3 pm?! (While complaining about not grabbing my cup on the way, now it’s another 2 m of walk )
 Don’t get me wrong, I feel the pressure and all, I feel like I should study and so very bad for not being like those students who apply to everything and attend conferences on weekends, and those who wake up to work out at 8 am on a Saturday (what’s wrong with you guys ?!Its Saturday! You know, so when you talk about your Saturday you have to be like: well, on Saturday I just SAT…  It’s meant to sleep in late and do nothing…)

 I’m sure I’m not the only one who walks out of the building at 5 pm on weekends looking at guys wearing badges and their best “business” outfits ( the best a student can afford…), while I’m barely keeping my eyes open because they are not used to the sunlight yet, and to think that the sun is going down, so not much light there… Don’t judge or I will start judging what’s wrong with your social life that you happen to be up by 8 am and already achieving all your next weekly goals by 5 pm of a Saturday …

I’m a very easy going person, willing to go to places and up for new things , but I AM NOT A MORNING PERSON. Yes, I consider 9 way, way too early to start the day. I even feel like it has been three months since we started the semester because now 4 days of my week start at 8am ! It’s twice the length of my normal university day. You do not want to see me that early in the morning, I might smile at you and be all nice and caring but if you are in for a long talk, I might be growing canine teeth so  you’d better run…

    Hey after all, its all about priorities… So you can’t judge others  on their eagerness to do things quick or pleasure of  postponing them till the very last minute.  But let’s be honest, which of  us here hasn’t felt the guilt and the satisfaction both at the same time when deciding to do it …”tomorrow” ? Leaving the guilt part aside, somehow you just decide to enjoy it and do the least productive thing because you have “plenty” of time tomorrow, where you will “wake up” by 10 am at most!  It’s amazing and shameful how easily we get tempted to give up on big things and turn on the other side instead for one more hour of sleep….


You guys, who do your stuff…I admire your will.  I too have that will but it must be something I really love doing … The rest of you , like me (or my friend who I swear just said: “-Let me know when you’re done with it so I can feel good that at least something is getting accomplished today in our room! ” ) either stop whining how you are running out of time and move your bottoms or shut up and enjoy those series… and that chocolate… and the chatting … and your Youtube list …

I think I got to eat at some point today and since Mom is nowhere around, it’s time to get up and cook something!! Wait…that’s too much of an effort … I will just go and eat somewhere…close!

Who am I kidding?! I’m just going to order and if I play my cards right, maybe make my friend pick it up too … (mwahaha)
