Procrastination - Blog Posts
Yes… I just wanted to share this.
It's called… ✨PROCRASTINATION✨
Because…. This is how I feel when I start to feel this feeling of not being able to start doing something important. Doesn't it happen to you?
…because I do, very often. :’D
If Crocodile and Ace fought with their logia powers do you think they’d make glass?
There might be some factors of how hot Ace’s fire is to turn Crocodile’s sand into glass tbh
cries because the short comic I’m making hasnt even left the sketch stage in six months purely cause the final pose is bugging me every time I even make the smallest attempt of drawing it so I have no choice but to procrastinate
It's me, I'm my own culprit lol. But I'm working on it. :)
akutagawa drawing i did because of procrastination :>
I hate being an academic procrastinator because I love being able to dive deep and spend hours on a project, or give my undividing attention to material and finish it to the best of my abilities.
But.
It just takes so long. The point of deep work is that it takes up time.
And from a standpoint, it's so easy to step back and say, I'm putting off that 4 hour session for later. But I'm not. Not until it's too late, that is. I like to believe that I'm getting better at it. But at this rate, im not too sure...
i have so much work todo but i’ll just procrastinate and watch movies then eventually go to bed around 2 when everything is done🩷
Not shifting rant, but I just want to ask how people keep up with schedules and everything 🥲. I just missed my drivers license appointment today, I couldn’t take it because I didn’t have a paper, and I want to cry waterfalls. And I was late too!? The shame and embarrassment makes me want to eat glass
You know the procrastination is bad when you start making excel spreadsheets.
I too need 20 years to complete any task. It's a problem. Send help.
Overcoming the slightest challenge of my day: “This is just like the Odyssey.”
Why yes, I COULD be working on those assignments I have been putting off! Am I? Of course not!
What am I doing instead? Making a whole new school in TWST, for some reason
Do you know how I feel? I feel like I’m drowning, and I’m aware of it but I can’t do anything.
I know I have to study a lot, but I can’t. I can’t get myself to do stuff, to concentrate.
I know I have to keep my house in order and do the dishes every day, do the laundry. But I can’t.
I am gaining weight and I know I should and want to eat healthy and not stress-eatings. But I do.
I know that I should be active more and workout so that I have a nice body. But I can’t do it more than one day.
I know I should take care of myself. But I fucking can’t.
And I hate myself for losing control like that, not being able to control my willpower. I hate myself for knowing this shit and still procrastinate and watch a movie instead or surf the instagram. I know I’m wasting my time, but there’s this voice in my head that’s just so strong, when I hear it I say ‘screw it you’ll do it tomorrow’. And the worst part is I am allowing that voice to control me. I don’t know what to do.
I don’t know what’s happening to me, it’s like I’m losing control over my mind and my will to do things. I am telling myself every fucking day that tomorrow will be different. Tomorrow will be a new start, but I feel deep down that it won’t. I feel like I’m drowning in my own sadness.
I realized a few days ago that I’m in depression. And that hit me hard. I am alone, sad and depressed. And I am trying to fight this fucking thing everyday but I fail. You know what though? I don’t want to lose control to that little piece of shit, I don’t want to be unhealthy, fat and depressed. I will fight it and I will kill it.
And when I do, it will be the greatest win of my life.
“Particularly prone to serious procrastination problems are children who grew up with unusually high expectations placed on them…or else they exhibited exceptional talents early on, and thereafter “average” performances were met with concern and suspicion from parents and teachers.”
Holy SHIT
Watch the pics gradually get more deranged like my sanity while editing this video (Song: Partner in crime by Madilyn Mei)
IT'S NO MORE THAN 1 MIN BUT IT TOOK ME LIKE 3-4 DAYS CUZ OF THE AMOUNT OF PICS I HAD TO FIT IN TO MATCH THE VIBE AND LYRICS
As for why I did this, honestly, simply because I had this song stuck in my head hshs and when I like a song sm I like to make an edit out of them, I did so for my previous songs but this took the most time and effort, and I'm proud of it!
The steps I took during the 3-4 days of editing:
1. Immediately inserted audio first in the vid so I can listen to the lyrics repeatedly and be in the zone while editing the pics
2. Drafting by focusing on editing 1 line each ONLY so I don't get overwhelmed. (ex. "Here's the reigns, take ahold of me, please don't let me go" that's 1 line, I didn't move on to the next line until I finished drafting that)
3. The most TEDIOUS task ever in editing: looking for the pics that would fit the lyrics and the vibe of the song, I used pinterest as my source
4. Putting the lyrics in only half of each lines cuz if I did full lyrics I would've took longer and gone more insane (also, it took me awhile to realize I could've just copy pasted the previous lyrics and just edit the words instead of clicking the text button each time and syncing them with the pictures one by one smh)
5. This is still the draft, are we following? okay, so I inserted all the pics I downloaded and idk what I did but the app buffered and the pics and lyrics after the 2nd line moved and it's not on sync with the audio anymore and I had to re-adjust it one by one
6. The 1st and 2nd lines (thank God) wasn't affected so I deleted everything other than those lines and had to take a break first, I think this was the 2nd day?
7. I downloaded more pics because the song was fast-paced so the I thought the transitions has to be fast, too, to match it, I just typed in " aesthetic" at the end of every theme I'm searching for (police aesthetic, murder aesthetic, partners in crime aesthetic, scream aesthetic etc. lol)
8. Then I edited the lyrics to have glitch effect cuz that's the only effect I found fitting(there was very limited options so I'm glad I found smth), I also edited the colors into dark blood red halfway to present the gradual decline in sanity(of the singer)
9. Recycled some pics at the last line cuz I couldn't take another searching(the pics were creeping me OUT) was worried it would look repetitive but I realized I could just adjust the filter, contrast, and use zooming to manipulate the perspective a lil bit
10. Finished draft on my last day, then edited some more so the lyrics, pics, and the transitions are on sync and match each others vibes, then we're finally done!
I'll do anything but review for the finals, seriously
The plan was to stay up late and finish work. Until I clarified with my friend that there's no presentation tmr.
All anxiousness and stress left my body.
discipline top apparently.
Thus, stayed up till 3am not getting any progress and just watched youtube videos.
THEN spent another 1 another trying to sleep cuz my brain needed the dopamine rush.
My friend better be correct..haha
Always stuck somewhere between too much work and not enough
I can't start until I'm desperate
I can't stop until I'm burnt out
Can't wait until summer so I can procrastinate without the normal excuses.
Ao3 being down is actually so validating bc this proves it's not just my fanfiction addiction preventing me from doing Stuff, I can avoid Stuff just fine on my own
3rd comic
Internet can be troublesome >.< especially if it doesn’t work at all.
you know when your adhd compels you to immediately stop all work and begin reharmonizing a choir warmup for spooky season (october) and purposefully go download a free videoediting software (ShotCut, hot artists dont gatekeep) to then continuously voice record myself for the next one hour exactly cutting and editing the voice recordings to line up (speeding up by 1.001000x with pitch consideration) and then having a result that was absolutely not worth the time because your two-voice harmony one sounded much better than the three-voice one you spent twice the amount of time as the two-voice harmony one figuring out and you messaged your music major friend about it but theyre asleep rn so your thoughts are still hyperfixated on music even though i've music'd all the music there is to music right now because i have no instruments near my vicinity enough for my adhd to consider it more convenient than it is important to stay hyperfixated on this unimportant task?
yeah me neither
My afternoon summed up in one lazy comic
procrastination this procrastination that... i suppose people are lucky if they are able to get job done even at the last moment. because i don't even "procrastinate", i'm just painfully lazy?? i don't.... finish things??? at all??? my courses i paid a load of money for, they ended months ago. i paid more to extend them and
and
and you'll never guess what i'm not ever doing (my homework).

Guyys im litteraly so stress right now i have 14 chapters to revise for my exams tomorrow and i am just half way there and there is just a couple of hours left if i do not sleep .

(Not really Cursive because who does that??)
Make sure to stay tuned to. . . Nothing. It is a miracle that I posted anything today.
This 100% procrastination, I promise I actually am working on the next lil comic thing for this AU- But I couldn’t help but think of future possibilities so here we have this- After Stanley comes back home and Bill is dealt with and stuff, AXOLOTL still remains a presence in the twins lives… And still gives them character development “errands” to run because who better than Stanley and Stanford? (Also they get cool magic tools that I think are fitting. A hand scarf for Ford as a second pair of arms and some basically crablike boxing gloves for Stan. I’m having fun- BUT AT WHAT COST-)
