Cyclical Laziness

I look forward to holidays...

I wake up late into the morning because I slept late last night. Being not at my optimum, I laze around watching TV and surfing the net -- for these are the only things I do best in this state of headiness. Soon lunch time approaches, grab something for lunch.

Afternoons can get very hot at home, so I spend the next few hours wondering how to bear with it. The temperature usually peaks around 4 p.m. By that time I would usually be asleep, for that's the best solution to the heat.

I wake up around 6 p.m. and laze around until dinner. After dinner -- provided I didn't eat too much to force all the blood into my stomach and out of my head, which is rarely -- I would work on finishing my lab report. My progress is slow as there is no urgency. I usually finish it faster cause I would have to pass it up the next day. But this time, there is no "next day" scenario.

After a short while, my mind would start to wander -- and the lure of the internet becomes overpowering. Hence I would find myself here, in this very position, staring into strings of cleverly arranged lights, which dance in response to the rhythm of my fingers.

Soon I will be so overcome with guilt, that I will return to my work. Needless to say, I will not catch the sunrise of the following day...

...only to find I hate them.
