Procrastination: n. 1) The act of putting off or delaying or deferring an action to a later time.
2) Skillful avoidance of a tedious task that you decidedly definitely do not feel like completing (i.e. homework) by doing something far more preferable like, say, reading fanfiction or writing in a blog.
Procrastinating is somehow always more enjoyable than doing actual work. It gives you a purpose, a challenge, a goal. You say to yourself, "Let's see how long we can do without looking at that math worksheet," and you go from there... Not really.

Seeeeee?????? Hah, I spent the better part of my day looking at Harry Potter memes and reading fanfiction. :P And now I must go, as I STILL HAVE HOMEWORK. D:> (PFFT. Oh well, it's not due for another 13 1/2 hours, anyways...)

I am the master at procrastinating since I have track and I get home sweaty and tired and I take the longest shower ever. And then I just sit there and listen to music all afternoon or stare at 9gag or make out with someone. And THEN I do my homework. Senior year is lazy year for me. I'm going to college soon so, well, yeah. Live it up. but yeah it's true. Saying that it's not due for another 13 hours makes it sounds really nice.
