Recently, Daniel Joseph tweeted “ Perhaps the greatest thief of time, and life, is procrastination”, this shows just what can happen if we allow laziness to dictate how we procrastinate. We need to figure out how to utilize the adrenaline we get from putting something off until the last hour, that rush when you wake up the morning it's due and have no other option than to succeed. Some might see that it’s ironic that the best way to brainstorm is to not take action at all, but think of it this way. Why force meaningless words on a blank piece of paper when you can wait for inspiration to come that will spur powerful sentences that convey what you truly wanted to express? Artists don't sit in front of a blank canvas until an idea manifests itself into a painting, they allow the idea to come natural, and in order to master the art of procrastination this part is essential. It boils down to being able to use your weakness to your greatest advantage, and I know just as well as anyone that this approach has its pros and cons. Putting things off simply just is relaxing the brain, and when you allow for your brain to relax when it isn't, it puts you in a…

As a student, I am quite busy on weekdays. However, at weekends, I have much free time, so I usually spend it on relaxing to prepare for a coming busy week. First of all, in my free time, I like playing some sports, such as soccer, badminton or basketball, with my friends. Sport not only makes me stronger but also connects me with my friends who have the same hobbies. We sometimes go riding in order that we can combine sporting activity and sightseeing. If the weather is not fine enough for me to hang out with my friends, I like to read books. I have a big bookshelf with many kinds of books but I prefer science books. Through these books, my knowledge is gradually enlarged. Thirdly, I also love to listen to music from pop, rock 'n roll to rap or melody. I can listen to music at any place with a small but modern Ipod which is my father's gift for my 18th birthday. Sometimes, I dance freely when listening to my favorite songs. Music really paints my life. Last but not least, I spend my free time on surfing on Internet. I can chat with my friends from very far distance or log on websites to read online news. With Internet, I update many things without having to go anywhere. I can also study English through some interesting websites. (If I have very difficult exercises and cannot solve them by myself, I will visit Google Answers and have somebody to help me. Just like this one ^^). In conclusion, I want to use all of my free time to relax and connect with other…
If somebody had told me five years ago that I would spend all of my free time in front of my computer screen I would have called him crazy. For me outdoor life has always been much more interesting than staying at home. It took me just one night to realize how important the Internet is for me. That night I spent seven whole hours on-line, just entertaining myself. I now believe that the Internet is quite an effective means of entertainment because I can download pictures, songs and videos, chat and communicate with other people and also play network games.…
