Procrastination and general laziness
So I have learned, as my Facebook status states, that no matter what the continent is there is no reason to do today what you can put off till tomorrow. It is hard to really get motivated to do anything without an imminent deadline especially when I am in a completely alien environment. I am slowly but surely getting used to living in this apartment in Freiburg, but I am still having trouble coming to grips with the fact that I have to actually do work while I am here. It is kinda sad I know, but in order to do things here I have to change my entire process of doing work and it is messing with my head. I don’t like writing on a laptop and there is really no computer lab that I can go to type papers at 10 o’clock at night. This sounds quite bitchy I know, but if you think about it it really is a problem that would hit anyone. I guess this is another thing that studying abroad is going to teach me: how to work productively in a completely different setting. But anyway, apart from my inability to actually do work I have had a pretty enjoyable weekend. Watched about 7 movies, and spent alot of time just recovering from the last couple weeks. It was kind of funny, one of my German flatmates even called me lazy today. He’s definitely right, I mean I haven’t gotten out of my pajamas in two days, but seriously I feel like I deserve a couple days off. Tomorrow it is back to work with no end in sight for about a month so I am going to enjoy this general laziness as long as I possibly can.
