The more assignments I do, the better I seem to get at not doing them! I have cleared 3 days this weekend in order to complete my assignment in a non stressful and panicy way but still I take a leisurely approach to finalising my assignment! I don't procrastinate in the sense that I do everything else but my assignment and leave it until the last minute, but I do work in waves so will spend a couple of hours pulling a section together and then give myself a long break instead of powering through.
When I am working on an assignment, suddenly all the housework, gardening and chores that have little importance the rest of the time become a top priority for me and must be completed in conjunction with my assignment. I've run out of laundry and nearly pruned my rosemary into oblivion!
I think my dogs are the greatest winners during assignment times as they get to go on very long walks as exercise is very important to keep the blood flowing thus feeding my creativity!
Working this way is frustrating in the sense that I could have powered through my assignment Friday and Saturday and spent today (Sunday) at the beach but I seem to want to take the leisurely approach and devote all of my spare time to thinking about and pulling it together.
I'm even using this blog as a form of procrastination, so I better draw it to a close and finally finish my assignment.
Great blog Fiona, witty and humorous. Loving the image you have inserted, will have to use that next time I claim not to be able to go out due to 'studies'.
