Introductory Post

Blogging and I

In the past few years I've created far more blogs than I care to admit and almost instantly, or perhaps after a few posts, either forgotten about them or gotten bored. However recently I've come to see blogging in a new light; it’s not about what you write in your blog, although content is important, it’s the fact that you’re writing something and doing so on a regular basis.

Numerous authors have given the same advice; write every day.

I will not be writing on this blog every day, in previous blogs I had forced myself to do so and then procrastinated to the point where the existence of the blog itself was removed from my memory. No, the purpose of this blog will be to create a starting point - a place to vent in safety about the horrors of writing and similar topics or, as the title of this blog suggests, a place for further procrastinations.

Procrastinating – I am an expert

I procrastinate a lot and there are several factors here to blame; firstly, my lack of focus. I am guaranteed to lose focus and become distracted by something – anything if what I am meant to be doing is deemed to be difficult. However if it is something I love doing, even if it is difficult, I become almost too focused and often lose track of time.  

Secondly, I have access to Wi-Fi. And of course there’s my rebellious streak in the mix to spice it up a little, why would I do homework a few days before it’s due when I can do it 10 minutes before class?

A little about me

So from this post you should have learnt several things about me, this is an introductory post after all.

·         I am terrible at committing to things

·         I am a writer although I am hesitant to call myself one

·         I procrastinate a lot

·         I like to blame anyone but myself when things go wrong

·         I am lazy

·         I am slowly learning to change – improve on things that need improvements

·         I am human, just like you, and I have a lot of flaws.

And most importantly, I'm just trying to be me - to stand out amongst the thousands of others with similar goals as myself, just like you.
