Finally Overcoming Laziness and Procrastination

3,133 views

It was such an unproductive weekend for me!

While most Filipinos were enjoying the 4-day weekend, yours truly had been pretty lazy and had been procrastinating a lot- when it comes to my online chores that is. Doing three kinds of job in a day had obviously taken its toll on me.

Though it’s a holiday here, I still had to report for my regular day time job. Sadly, we don’t respect any holidays by virtue of a resolution issued by the Commission for the conduct of the continuing registration in preparation for the mid-term elections in 2013.

I was most of the time lying down in bed when I am at home. I don’t feel like working around the pad at all. It feels odd that everything’s a mess when I always want everything to be in perfect order. It feels also unlikely not to be facing the PC or my lappy. That’s not so me! I get easily tired of late. I was telling my friends it must be the clear sign of aging, hahaha!

Yesterday however, I managed to squeeze in my time to have my nails done at the salon.

My third time to have a foot spa in the salon :-)

I’ve previously mentioned at A Sojourner’s Saga how I want my birthday celebrated this year. To quote:

I am thinking of just spending my birthday by my lonesome or simply by pampering myself by going to a salon, get my hair and nails done, get a good body spa, and facial. Hmmm. I think that’s a good idea. LOL!

But I simply was feeling itchy for that self-pampering session. I can’t wait for my birthday to finally have it, LOL!

After work, I was able to purchase the basic essentials especially the hoarding of my most favorite cereals and milk. I was delighted to see them at the groceries again because last week, it was out of stock. I experimented on a different brand but I just don’t like it.

My all-time favorite cereals along with the choco milk.

This is a product made from Australia and exported to Africa and other countries. The big clusters of almonds are a delight but don't like it much.

I was also able to purchase one ladies jeans. I don’t often buy denims because it’s a little expensive. But when I buy I want it to be worth every penny. I actually hesitated at first because I wanted the item purchased on a marked down price. The salesman however doesn’t know when is the exact date of the sale. He told me he’s not too sure if the item I am eyeing for will be put on sale since it arrived only recently. Worse, there’s only one size left that fits me well. I had no choice but to purchase the item with a heavy heart but mind you, I so loved how it perfectly fit my unsightly body, LOL!

The price better be worth it!

I had to put this picture in, LOL! I got silly and started taking a capture of myself in the fitting room only wearing my top and undies, LOL!

As further proof of my laziness, I had my laundry done by the laundry shop. Last week, I hired someone to do it for me. She offered to do it on a regular basis but I don’t like her style. I mean, the way she does the washing and all that is kind of yucky, ekkkkkk! I am a little meticulous when it comes to washing my clothes. Apart from that, I had to cook her meals while she’s doing the laundry. I feel I can’t maximize my time at home every weekends if I do that all the time. So from now on, the laundry shop will have to do its work for me every weekends. That will save me H2O, soap and fabric conditioner :-)

The month is about to end. I must say I am happy I survived being alone in the apartment for more than a month now. But sadly, my mother hasn’t taken the time as of yet to visit her prodigal daughter in her lovely haven, LOL! My brothers have frequently hang around here, but not my Pretty Mama. As to her reasons, that deserves a separate post :-)

Another reason for me to be glad is that I was able to update all my 5 blogs READ: non-paid posts. Hurray to that! What a time to defy laziness and procrastination :-)

    @Mel Cole,

    Yes, you said it, Mel. I just felt I had the need to purchase one because all others already gave up on me. I simply had no choice, LOL!

    I try to be as productive as I can but as we all know, if you’re just a mere employee in the Philippines, no matter how much you work your ass off, there’s no progress. I have been a witness to that here in government service. Anyways, I am just thankful I have a job :-)

    @stormblogger,

    Thank you, Leyn.

    You are right. We must take the time to pamper ourselves once in a while. We owe it to ourselves for despite the hectic stuff, we still can get going like eveready battery, hahaha!

    Actually, I only thought of that in random. I don’t plan of anything grand for my birthday this year, unlike the previous years. Maghahanap nalang ako ng sponsor for the premium pampering session.

    Thank you for the thumbs up, Tukayo. Love yah too!

    Lots of kisses back to you… with power hug ;-)

    Grabe, I am sooooooo green with envy Sis with the foot spa. Murag kahilakon gud ang tiil nagtan-aw sa imong nagpahayahay nga mga toes! LOL. Pedi ra akong ma-afford diri oi. Ako nalang mag-hilot hilot sa akong precious nga duha ka tiil! LOL.

    Sis, healthy na kaayo ka ug kaon. Less calories pa jud. Ma-seksi na jud ka ana ug samot ba.

    Ganahan diay ko sa colorful tops. Triz defines it as rainbowy. Ambot iyaha ra ng term, naghimo ug iyang kaugalingon nga word. Hahaha. Kana laging magpasabak while mag blog hop ko, kakita nuon sya sa imong mga pics. Lol.

    Agutoy ang LEE jeans. Pagka-mahala ana! Murag wa pa jud ko kapalit ug ing-ana ka-mahal nga jeans ever. Murag ang akong ma-afford Sis kay P1,398.75 ra jud tawon. Hahaha. Joke lang na ha. Ako unya suot ana Sis inig ma-daan na. Kana kung mo-seksi na ko pareho nimo. :D
    Taas na pud kaayo akong comment. Sori gud! LOL. Katawa diay ko kay ang imong sites sa akong browser gapula-pula ang mga names sa commenters. That means no follow pa imong blog. Hahaha. Ayaw kasuko ha, friendship baya ta. :D I know wala nimo gituyo na. :)
    Salamat daghan sa pag-visit sa akong WW entries Sis. Ubay-ubay jud ni, ug naa pa kay wala nakita, basin ganahan ka ug tan-aw. :D

    @Rcel,

    Hahaha! Wala kay dapat ika-envy Sis kay ika 3rd time palang pud nako na pa-foot spa, hahaha! I believe dili makaayo sa tiil if magsige pafoot spa, nadivirginize na gani hinuon na ron, LOL!

    Thanks for appreciating the tops, Sis. It’s one of my faves.

    Hahaha! I am sure coins ra na para nimo ang P1, 398. 75 sa kadaghan sa imong tasks, hehe! Naa lang ko dire maghulat kung need ka ug ghost writer, LOL!

    Oh, about sa no follow thingy, I actually left a comment at the FB thread. I asked for assistance. Kindly send to my email Sis the step-by-step process. I no more have time to spare to read the long thread, nalibog pud ko unsaon, hehehe! Anyways, I honestly didn’t know it’s a faux pas to have a no follow blog.

    I shall be looking forward for your instructions ;-)

    I shall visit all your WW entries tonight when I get back from work. I believe I already had visited one. Three more to go ;-)

    See yah!

    hmmm…I beg to disagree and NO, you’re not lazy, Sis. pampering yourself and giving your body that much needed rest is being kind to oneself. hala at nag-sermon pa ako hahaha.

    seriously, you need to take care of yourself so you can take care of everything else.

    have a great day!

    I just came across here on google search so, I hope it’s okay to post (being as I’m a guy and there seems to be a lot of girls here). I have a lot of friends that really struggle with laziness, and I think it’s definitely a motivational issue; something to live for. You seem to have a lot you’re living to accomplish so, you stay on task pretty well. Great job! I made a whole video to try to help people have a song in their heads when they are tempted to be lazy: http://youtu.be/kpShPFMp1h8
