I got this as a forward, but since it's exactly what I'm doing right now, I thought I'd share (with my revisions, of course)
1. Sit in a straight, comfortable chair in a well lit place in front of your computer.
2. Log onto MSN and ICQ (be sure to go on away!). Check your email.
3. Read over the assignment carefully, to make certain you understand it.
4. Go to the kitchen and get some food to help you concentrate.
5. Check your email.
6. Call up a friend and ask if he/she wants to go to grab a coffee. Just to get settled down and ready to work.
7. When you get back, sit in a straight, comfortable chair in a clean, well lit place.
8. Read over the assignment again to make absolutely certain you understand it.
9. Check your email.
10. You know, you haven't written to that kid you met at camp since fourth grade. You'd better write that letter now and get it out of the way so you can concentrate.
11. Look at your teeth in the bathroom mirror.
12. Grab some mp3z off of kazaa.
13. Check your email.
14. MSN chat with one of your friends about the future. (ie summer/Christmas plans).
15. Check your email.
16. Listen to your new mp3z and download some more.
17. Phone your friend and ask if she's started writing yet. Exchange derogatory remarks about your prof, the course, the college, the world at large.
18. Walk to the store and buy a pack of gum. You've probably run out.
19. While you've got the gum you may as well buy a magazine and read it.
20. Check your email.
21. Check the TV listings to make sure you aren't missing something truly worthwhile.
22. Play some solitaire.
23. Check out userfriendly.org. Start/participate in a flame war. Or try the LOTD. Go through the archives. Go through the LOTD archives.
24. Wash your hands.
25. Call up a friend to see how much they have done, probably haven't started either.
26. Look through your roommate's book of pictures from home. Ask who everyone is.
27. Sit down and do some serious thinking about your plans for the future.
28. Check to see if userfriendly.org has been updated yet.
29. Check your email and listen to your new mp3z.
30. You should be rebooting by now, assuming that windows is crashing on schedule.
31. Read over the assignment one more time, just for heck of it.
32. Scoot your chair across the room to the window and watch the
sunrise.
33. Lie face down on the floor and moan.
34. Punch the wall and break something.
35. Check your email.
36. Mumble obscenities.
37. 5am - start hacking on the paper without stopping. 6am - paper is finished.
38. Complain to everyone that you didn't get any sleep because you had to write that stupid paper.
39. Go to class, hand in paper, and leave right away so you can take a nap.
Feel very free to add to this list (especially if it helps you avoid doing your essays!) |
