Excuses to go Online


I realize that I procrastinate A LOT! But I have my reasons...These are my reasons to procrastinate due to computer interference. 

Most used list of excuses:

1. What if I got a life altering email?
  
2. What if someone really needs to contact me and I'm not online (yeah, as if they couldn't call me...)
  
3. OK. I'll just turn it on and check my email and then back to studying! Yes! That's what I'll do. I can do this! 

4. OMG! That new episode of ____ MUST be online by now (~10 minutes after I've realized that I missed a show)
  
5. I'll just watch one short clip of ___ on Youtube (i.e. Vampire Diaries, Craig Ferguson, Hindi Songs, The Office, Community, Melissa and Joey)
  
6. I can't study without music. DUH!
  
7. I have to download an assignment from Sakai. (Note: This assignment will usually take 3 hours to retrieve. 2hr and 56 min. of those 3 hrs are spent surfing the web)

8. I'm turning into an anti-social person! I'll just go on aim for 2 seconds, say "hi" to everyone and then tell them that I have to study because I have so much to do. They'll understand. I just need to say "hello" so they know I haven't forgotten them. Yeah. Of course. I have to do this. I need people to know I'm alive and suffering! *Log onto aim and say "hi" to people*. See that wasn't so bad. Wait, is that ___? I haven't talked to ____ in forever! OMG! I have to talk to them! My mother taught me good manners. I can't just sign off now! God that would be deplorable of me! I must make haste to converse with _____.
  
9. SHUT UP! I'M HAVING A FREAKIN BAD DAY! I NEED TO RELAX!!!
 
10. I wonder what's happening in the world. I need to read the news. PRONTO! OMG! Is Angelina Jolie having another baby? WOW. There's a picture slideshow. Yay! Oh! They give you more choices for what slideshow you want to see next! OMG! Is that Ian Somerhalder? IT IS HIM!!! I have to know more about him! *click click*
 
11. I wonder which celebrities are born on my birthday. Well... don't judge me! EVERYONE ELSE IN THE ENTIRE WORLD KNOWS! I have to know too!
 
12. What other show can I watch? I totally deserve this break (after 1hr of staring at my book because I was "studying")
 
13. I'll just take a quick minute to check my blog. I can't have Google think that I've given up going on my blog or anything. That would be disastrous!
 
14. I'm sure the world is going to implode/explode if I don't check ALL my emails AGAIN! I'm sure that email I've been waiting for has come in by now... Maybe now.... Maybe now... OK. It definitely has to be there now... It's probably in my Spam... It's probably here by now... Maybe if I sign on again... Maybe I'll RE-EMAIL to ask what the problem is...
 
15. Um... I'm my own boss. I can go online whenever I want and that's that! I'm totally going to prove it to myself, right now! See that self? I just went online! And there's nothing you can do about it! HAH! I sure showed you!
