How to: Procrastinate like a pro

Hi everyone,
Ok, so it is nearing mocks for some of us and then the real exams so I thought rather than doing a blog about revision (which I completely fail at) I thought I would a blog at how to procrasinate (if you don't want to procrastinate, then do the opposite of all I am about to say).
WARNING: This video is in no way helpful if you want to stop procrastinating or succeed at anything in life.
Enjoy!
  1. Hit the snooze button until nearly 1pm, then it's time for lunch!
  2. Eat everything in the house, then go out and buy some more.
  3. Check your email.
  4. Go to the toilet.
  5. Have an extra long shower or bath to "relax yourself from the stress of revision".
  6. Create a revision timetable; some think this helps revise but I just think it is an excuse to use lots of different coloured pens and create a pretty table that you most likely will not keep to.
  7. Organise your desktop, maybe sort your coloured pens into colour order.
  8. Get all your cushions and beanbags and make a huge bed to just lie on, on the floor. Or maybe you could make a den out of old bed sheets in the living room and say it is to give you som eprvacy and then spend the whole time on tumblr on your phone.
  9. Seek out your favourite DVDs or TV show boxsets and just press play all. 
  10. Make a playlist of all your favourite youtube videos and just have that on in the "background" the whole time.
  11. Go on Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter and things like that and just do a couple of pages... or twenty.
  12. Get out your wii, DS, playstation or xbox, call your friends and play!
  13. Call your friends; tell your parents it is for help on a section you don't understand then you can both procrastinate together! Alternatively invite them over for a "study session" and just end up chatting the whole time.
  14. Colour co-ordinate your wardrobe by season and type.
  15. Keep hydrated; drink lots of water.
  16. See it is 6pm and decide it is too late to start revising so tell your parents that you will not revise tonight because you're not in the "mood" and there will not revise effectively because you are not "in the zone of revising".
  17. Go outside, enjoy the sunshine and do some exercise... hahahahahahahah
 Hope you found this in know way helpful if you wish to do something productive.
Have fun procrastinating!

What to do when you are Home Alone

Hi everyone,
I was recently home alone so I thought I would do a blog all about what you can do when you are home alone.

  1. 

Raid the cupboards for anything to eat; this usually results in saying there is nothing until you come across the cookie tin and eat it all in one sitting. Oops.
   
     2.
Sit on your comfiest chair and watch endless episodes of friends or your favourite movies.
 
     3.
Make a den on your sofa out of cushions and duvets and have a comfy day; I would recommend having your laptop, tv remote, phone and hot water bottle (if it is cold that day) and no more than arms reach so you need use no energy all day.
 
    4.

Put your music as loud as you want and belt out your favs at the top of your voice.

    5.
Get your homework done...;haha lol, yeah right. ;)

    6.
Go on the computer; WARNING: this may result in you going on tumblr for 5 minutes then looking at the clock and realising it is 6pm and you have done nothing else all day...

     7.
Be helpful; do the washing, clean your bedroom, make dinner. Yeah right, like any of us would be helpful, but it is an option.

     8.
Don't be bored, maybe call your friend and invite her round; although I would recommend telling your parents you are going to invite them round first as they may not like to come back and see someone else in their house.

     9.
Go shopping; this is my favourite as you can go in the shops you want and buy make up without your mum saying "that lipstick is far to bright for someone your age" then when you wear it tell her she was there when you bought it and she was fine with it then. I have done that countless times ;)
 
 
    10.
Make a list of all the things you would do if you one a million pounds.

     11.
Practice your favourite make up look or what you are wearing out next weekend to perfect the look. I tend to practice eye liner as I fail completely at it...

    12.
Stare out your window at passers-by rating them on clothes, make up and things like that; whilst doing this you can think up something productive to do.
 
TIP: don't do anything stupid like have a party as you want to show your parents that they can leave you on your own. If you act irresponsibly you may not be allowed to be home alone again.
Hope you have fun home alone
