The Fine Art of Procrastination
I love Carley Simon’s classic song “Anticipation”! I really love Mandy Moore’s cover of it too! As much as I love the song though, I think Carley and her songwriting team used the wrong word. Anticipation is a nifty feeling/sensation, but I think another ation-word is more fitting to the lyrics.
My version is called “Procrastination”. Since I am such an awesome song relyricist, I am only using the chorus and I am only changing one word. My version is sung to the tune of “Anticipation” and goes a little something like this: “Procrastination, procrastination, is making me late! It’s keeping me waiting!”
It works because the words have the same number of syllables! I feel like this is a Top Forty hit in the making.
Right now, procrastination is the theme of my life! I am drowning in homework, to use a polite euphemism. Unless I schedule me time into my day, all I do is study group hopping, working, and class. I have found the best way to have me time is to just put off my homework until the last possible minute! Aren’t I the king of healthy and wise choices?
In the series of images I am posting, my dear friend Shannon and I are “studying” in the library. Instead of coding for my Research Methods class and reading C.S. Lewis, we choose to use the Photo Booth feature on Shannon’s Mac to take pictures of ourselves. We took fun pictures! We took studious pictures! We took more than 35 pictures and put them in a very classy album on Facebook. If you can’t tell, I spend more time on Facebook than I care to admit!
