Pro-cras-tin-a-tion

I just now realized that the word "procrastination" fits into the Pepto Bismol jingo...
Some days I have the hardest time focusing on my homework. I just find myself drifting far away in the oceans of my mind, sometimes, while my eyes are still glued to the article I'm supposed to be digesting for class...

Oh homework! If only I had more time in the day, I would enjoy you more. I really DO like homework (if you haven't figured out how much of a nerd I am by now...you should re-evaluate your views of me a teensy bit).

I just destroyed my February resolution as well. I definitely did not get 1 blog post in a week. In fact, this is the first blog post I have written since my February resolution. Silly me! I would say that rules are made to be broken, but I don't believe that is true. I like rules...and straight lines...and organized books and papers (this is why I am purposely not looking at the floor of my room right now...a veritable hazard-zone for paper cuts, I tell you!)...

So yeah...that's all for now...back to the Preuss article(it's actually a really great article...I'm just not focusing right now...) and plotting the Nepal presentation!

A Poem in a Dying Pen

A Poem in a Dying Pen
by carolyn walsh

You're a silly thing
Just like me
More confusing than either of us
Would like to admit
Where have you been?
What have you said?
Who are you?
Now both empty...


I thought it would be fitting to have the font in orange, since the pen was orange. I found it this afternoon while I was working. I am having a poetry-feeling day today, and a friend suggested that I write some myself...so here you are! Fresh from the vaults of my own mind 5 minutes ago.
