Tonight is totally not working for me… (tries to think of the last night that worked)… never mind that.
Once upon a time I came across a blog entry that advised on what to do, when you have to do something but don’t want want. I don’t remember the exact blog (and hoping that the authors are not reading this) but the cure was this: do nothing. By nothing they didn’t mean not doing anything to resolve the matter of utter laziness, they meant doing nothing, not listening to music, not reading any blogs, not looking at the pictures, facebook, gmail, twitter and everything else that imply even a tiny quantum of effort (see how I used quantum there? funny, right? because quantum cannot be big or small, it’s as small as it gets, the literal meaning of dx/dt). And then that nothingness is supposed to bore so bad that even the most boring thing of all boring things will seem exciting (granted, of course, you’ve had enough sleep, unlike the majority of sheep at this college).
What I have to do in the next couple of hours (hopefully before closing the library, going to Harvard, kissing Julia or falling asleep) is to write half-page responses to the essays that we were assigned to read. In the beginning these responses did not seem too difficult. But either from limited nature of my mind or unlimited nature of my laziness, I got really, seriously behind on them (God, I’ll be really mad at you, if my Essays professor is reading this right now).
Got nothing to do? Check this out. Trippy.
