A procrastinators guide to wasting time effectively

"I never put off till tomorrow what I can possibly do - the day after"
- Oscar Wilde

 
Procrastination is like the evil overlord of my generation. Everybody procrastinates. It has been made so easy for us to do - we all have smart phones with Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, Tinder, and so many other delightfully enticing apps that we simply get lost in. I don't know if I would survive, if one day, all of these apps just ceased to exist. Oh what a cruel fate that would be...
 
I am a self diagnosed social media addict. Facebook is my heroin. I am always checking it, scrolling through my news feed, posting, liking, sharing - I just can't stop. Even as I am typing I have Facebook sitting idle in another tab ready for me to check. My procrastination very much will start and finish with Facebook. At work, at home, at the gym, going out with friends, even sometimes when I am sitting on the toilet (haha). I just can't help it. It's who I am.
 
So here I sit, at my desk, nothing in my in tray, procrastinating - yet again. It is a very good feeling, having been flat chat for the last two months. Finally having a slow day. Gives me time to reflect, review, take some selfies & of course, procrastinate.

So this is me... Your friendly office-girl/real estate loving/trendsetter/travel obsessed/Facebook addict/PROCRASTINATING QUEEN. Tegan.

Euro Adventures Pt 12 - Driving The Day Away, To Venice We Go

Sometimes I cannot believe I am on this tour, living this lifestyle, I never thought I would be able to handle it... My body may be telling me that I can't. But I will still power through! This is one of those days - one of those days where I need to power through, buck up, not be a princess and suck up the massive pain in my tailbone and endure a long day in a bus... But at least at the end we will be in one of my favourite places in the world, Venice!  Already on our 11th day... 11 days away from our jobs, from our families, from our boyfriends, it's been hard, but we have tried to make every day as fun as we can - even the drive days, and this one was a long one - we did, however, have one notable stop... Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona, where we lay our scene,from ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.  Today we were able to stop in Verona, where the famous play Romeo and Juliet was based. It was nothing like ...

Friends are the family you choose - choose wisely

Sometimes we get lucky and someone comes into your life and changes you forever. I have been blessed to have many people come into my life and make a massive impact on who I am as a person, I don't plan to ever let those people go - or for that matter, make sure they always know how much they mean to me!  Babycakes - my bestie, met this girl while working at a golf club and we instantly clicked! She tells it like it is and doesn't put up with your shit. She is also one of the most kind hearted, generous and absolutely gorgeous girls I have ever met. She has helped me through some very dark times in my life and motivates me everyday to be a better version of myself. She is a pillar of strength in my long standing battle with obesity for which I will never be able to thank her for. I don't know how she will survive four weeks in Europe with me but I can't wait to explore the world with her.  Millzdawwwggg, soulmate, realestate buddies, this chick! My sister from another ...

Euro Adventures Pt 17 - When In Rome...

Waking up in Rome, such a surreal thing, travelling somewhere so different, I always find myself thinking, 'wow'. 16 days in, still sick, still a very sore tailbone (I do have fears it might be cracked or a severely bruised bone), but still trying to do my very best every day to have a great time.  We had another early start today and most of us had chosen to do the Vatican City tour, we had a local guide take us through the Musee Vaticani and through some different galleries, into the Sistine Chapel and through to St Peters Basilica. There was little to no air conditioning throughout the entirety of the tour, so we all walked out dripping with sweat. But for me it was worth it, I love the history surrounding this place and all that comes with it - it was just as exciting for me now as it was 7 years ago.  I don't think I will ever be able to express how beautiful St Peters Basilica is so ill just put some of the photos below. Amazing. Truly a place of God. After the tour h...
