Procrastination is the thief of time

So while being a thief, why not employ procrastination to be productive?  Like updating my blog.  I don't know how productive this actually is...but hey.  In procrastinating my paper, I've gotten a lot done!  For instance, today I updated my journal on a bunch of things I've overlooked the past couple of days.  And I started cleaning my room/packing for the mission.  And I labelled a couple hundred pictures.  And I caught up with friends.  And I worked.  And I volunteered at the Temple.  And I went on a date.  And...yeah.  See?  Not completely a waste of time!  All those are good things!  But I'm at the point where I KNOW I need to do this paper, but I just can't seem to focus.  I can focus on anything else, but this task for some reason seems way too daunting.  But I need to finish it like a month ago, but in reality, tomorrow is basically the last day I can really finish it without a huge panic before I leave.  If I wanted to push it for real, I could finish it by Monday, and then just take my final, say, the Thursday or Friday before I leave.  yeah, good plan...NOT.  Either way, it'll be that week.  But if I keep procrastinating, I'm just going to screw myself up in this class, and that's no good.  Ugh.

So back to the paper for me.  I need some inspiration or something.  My phone is off, there's nothing new on facebook, I've already written in my journal, I don't have any more House episodes to watch, so really there should be nothing to distract me...right?  Okay, here's the test.  I'll let you know how it goes!

10 Things I love about Hannaford

So originally I was going to do this in sarcasm...but then decided that I could actually come up with 10 things (in no specific order) I like about my job. Even though being a cashier at a grocery store is not ideal, it's a job, and...well, you'll see. 1. Going on break with my dad sometimes. Because, you know, we work in the same store. It's pretty cool. 2. I love the people I work with soooooo much! Mainly the ones during the day, because I don't know any of the high school kids that work evenings, because I rarely work evenings. 3. Being the "party animal". nuff said. 4. Watching a cashier ID someone for alcohol, and him telling us that he doesn't even have a photo ID since his license was taken away for DWI. Yeah, maybe he should rethink his purchase... 5. Now when I hear the name of a vegetable, I automatically think of its PLU. Dates: 3047. Cabbage: 4069. Bananas: 4011. Tree Ripe Peaches: 4044. Eastern Peaches: 4403. Nectarines: 4378.

Greased Lightning

It's snowing today! And what a great day it's been...minus the fact that I haven't finished nearly as much as I should have by now. But I DID go outside and play in the snow...and that's important! The snow was fresh in the tree....so I did what any little kid would do, and licked it. It was snow AND ice...good thing my tongue didn't freeze to the tree in my front yard! I love tree branches in the snow. There's just something about the combination of brown and pure white that strikes my artistic bone. Part of the tree and part of my house. Looking up Pennichuck Street. So picturesque. Me in my getup...I borrowed Michael's boots because I don't have any in NH (except for my cowboy boots....), and he gave me his snowshoeing boots, because they each weight like 5 pounds, and he just wanted to see me try to walk in them. My sunglasses made a comeback! Well, that's today. I've got a couple papers to write for English 316, and a bunch of Bio to r

10 Things I hate about Hannaford

Today was one of those days. I've had this list growing in my head for a while too, and today I just want to write it all down, cuz the first part of work, until I got back from my break, pretty much sucked. Stupid people. So in no specific order... 1. Frozen pizzas. I don't like eating them, and I hate them even worse at the register, because their barcodes are dumb and they don't fit in bags. 2. paper in plastic. Seriously, what's the point?! 3. customers who bag for themselves on express. THERE IS NO ROOM ANYWAY, and yet they're making less. This also includes the people who rearrange as you bag for them. yuck. if you want it a specific way, just tell us! 4. people who smell bad. nuff said. 5. old guys who wink at me. and hit on me. sick. 6. when dillon is not my bagger. hahahah. 7. when someone asks "where's corn flake crumbs?" like anyone could even know that. what are those even used for?! just get the crumbs from the bottom o
