Procrastination

Surveys, polls, and other forms of procrastination

  • Procrastination at its Finest: The Survey

    I filled this survey stolen from @happyworld_ofharibo and @Marica0701 who in turn stole it from @saintvi…and it actually seems like a lot of people stole that survey recently :P  

    What was the last thing you put in your mouth? Water, I just started my third bottle for the day. I aim for drinking four bottles to get the recommended 8 glasses, but I rarely make it.

    Have you ever kissed anyone named Matthew? Not yet.

    Where was your profile picture taken? At home, I think. I’m pretty sure I was sitting on my couch working on editing.

    Can you play guitar hero? I have only tried once, and that was enough to say I had.

    Name someone that made you laugh today? I haven’t laughed yet today, probably due to only talking to my mother.

    How late did you stay up last night and why? I took a sleeping pill around 10pm, and was asleep by 12:30am. Now before you freak about the fact I took said meds, it’s an attempt to get myself on a sleeping schedule as I also am forcing myself to wake up at the same time every morning as well. I was writing a blog that will be posted on my wordpress site.

    If you could move somewhere else, would you? Yep, I plan to move to Ireland for a couple years.

    Ever been kissed under fireworks? Yes, I was visiting a boyfriend in during a Canada Day weekend, and it was a blast… Loved the city, but didn’t end up being in love with the boy.

    Which of your friends lives closest to you? Buttercup lives a couple blocks away, and pretty much everyone else lives out of town. I seriously need to make some new friends here.

    Do you believe exes can be friends? Yes. While we aren’t close, I remain on a friendly basis with most my ex-boyfriends.

    How do you feel about Dr Pepper? It gets a no thanks.

    When was the last time you cried really hard? It’s actually been a while, and I actually cannot remember. I’m sure it was during a fight with my parents as they are usually the only people who frustrate me to tears.

    Where are you right now? In my room.

    What bed did you sleep in last night? I started falling asleep on the couch, but soon moved to my own bed.

    What was the last thing someone bought for you for dinner? Oh goodness, let me think… A friend was supposed to buy me dinner but forgot his wallet, so it had to be before that. It has to be @Karoline1982 when I went to visit her before she moved. Blarney chips, yummm.

    Who took your profile picture? Whomever got their hands on my phone when I was distracted.

    Who was the last person you took a picture of? Myself, actually. I am taking a picture at the end of each month I exercise in hope that I’ll eventually see progress.

    Was yesterday better than today? I’d say they are about the same at this point. Get up, exercise, shower, have breaky, procrastinate, eat lunch, deal with mum, more procrastination…you get the idea. 

    Can you live a day without TV? Yes, I haven’t had cable in years and only watch a movie maybe once a week. I’d much rather read a book or drag Buttercup out on a walk.

    Are you mad about anything? Not seriously mad, maybe just annoyed. At myself for not being diligent with my editing. At my parents and the drama they create. At the economy, because it sucks….

    Are you upset about anything? The above.

    Do you think relationships are ever really worth it? Yes. The world is based on relationships: family, friends, lovers, coworkers, enemies, whatever. Some are worth keeping and some aren’t, but in general it’s what keeps the world on turning.

    Are you a bad influence? I doubt it.

    Night out or night in? Depends on my mood. Sometimes I just want to relax with a book or a movie, other times I’m full of energy and raring to go dancing!

    What items could you not go without during the day? Water, my cell phone, a book.

    Who was the last person you visited in the hospital? My cousin when she had her baby girl.

    What does the last text message in your inbox say? “Okay. I can meet u there around 645ish”

    How do you feel about your life right now? It’s a work in progress.

    Do you hate anyone? I don’t think it would do much good if I did.

    If we were to look in your xanga inbox, what would we find? Mostly mass messages from people telling me where their new blogging site is.

    Say you were given a drug test right now, would you pass? I probably don’t even have the graval in my system anymore, so I’m going with yes.

    Has anyone ever called you perfect before? No, I don’t recall that anyone has.

    What song is stuck in your head? “Dance Ten Looks Three” from The Chorus Line.

    Someone knocks on your window at 2am, who do you want it to be? I’m not sure I’d want anyone tapping on my window at that time of night. It would scare the bejabbers out of me! But if I got a warning text, then any of my besties breaking me loose :P

    Wanna have grandkids before you’re 50? I am nearly thirty and not even married, let along with kids, so even if I had a child in the next five years said offspring sure as heck better not be producing babies before I’m fifty!

    Name something you have to do tomorrow? Edit. I must, must, must edit this freaking huge manuscript.

    Do you think too much or too little? Sometimes I think too much and other times not enough… and it’s usually too much thinking when I should just go for it, and not enough forethought when I should consider things more.

    Do you smile a lot? More often than not.

    Who was your last missed call on your Mobile phone? Heck if I know. I don’t have call display.

    Is there something you always wear? You will rarely see me without my claddagh ring on, as I only take it off when I’m at home.

    What were you doing 30 minutes ago? Eating a late lunch and making a grocery list.

    Did you have an exciting last weekend? Yes! First Buttercup and I went on a walk, then Brandi came to visit me, and finally L&B stopped by on their way through town. 

    Have you ever crawled through a window?  I have more than once! I locked myself out of the house a few times, and when I was younger my cousin and I were sneaking out while we were on our summer holiday at the cottages. I think we went skinny dipping ;)

    Have you ever dyed your hair? Four whole times within a two-year period.

    Are you wearing a necklace? Not at the moment, but I usually wear the necklace my parents got me for a uni grad present.

    Are you an emotional person? I think I may be.

    What’s something that can always make you feel better? A good book, chocolate, singing when no one is around, getting a hug.

    Will this weekend be a good one? Not particularly.

    What do you want right now? I want to want to edit, but I really don’t actually want to do it. That I somehow won the lottery. A really gorgeous, sweetheart of an Irishman who is single to be lost and knock on my door. You get the idea…

    Have you ever worn the opposite sex’s clothing? Yep. Turned an old shirt of my dad’s into a dress, borrowed a cute guy’s jacket/sweater when I was cold, wear ties for belts…

    Have you ever worked in a food place? Yes, at a coffee shop and for a pizzeria –though that was for school pizza days and not actually in the restaurant.

    What’s on your schedule for tomorrow? At this point, no idea.

    Does anyone know your xanga password? If they do, I’m not aware of the fact.

    Recommending Habit:  I tend to forget it exists *whoops*

    Commenting Habit:  I try to comment, but sometimes I’ll just leave a happy face or just click on the page (from subscriptions) so the person will know I read their post. 

    Timestamping:  I’d use it mostly for future posts, but would occasionally bump the time if I made changes to what I had written

    Xanga Plugz:  If I used this feature, then I’ve done so by accident as I have no idea what it is

    Xanga Hopes:  I hope Xanga 2.0 becomes a reality, and I hope that there is also a free option. I’d much rather stay with Xanga than move to a new platform. 

    Last Words:  It has been over ten years, and it would be so sad to see our beloved Xanga go. I’ve shared the good and the bad on this site, and stayed faithful. Admittedly I sometimes neglected writing, but there was a comfort in knowing the site and the entire xangian community was there if I needed it. Thank you to everyone who has ever read my blog and participated in a piece of my life. I love you all!
