Today is my second day off in a row, so no work or TAFE to worry about! When I see a day off in my roster I start to make plans, to idealize what is meant to be a very productive day however it never turns out the way I thought it would!
Take today for instance, here I am in front of the computer creating this blog while I was meant to be studying about mangroves! It's lunch time already and I'm thinking about what I'm going to cook for myself. Afterwards will be time for washing up, having a cig while admiring the view from my varandah and when I come back to earth and check the time, I will most certainly be late to meet Paula at some bar in the city to have a couple of beers before we meet the other girls! I have promised myself that I would go for only 2 beers but I know myself well enough to understand that if I'm having a great time, I will stay there for a while but even if I decide to come back home for any reason, I will be a bit tipsy to try to study. I suppose I studyed enough last night and that should do the trick!
So here is my question: Why do I bother making plans for my days off if in the end I change my mind and do whatever I feel like? I suppose there are two answers and none is wrong: I make plans because I like to have an objective, something to look forward to and I don't normally follow my plans for the simple fact that I CAN!!! I live in my little purple world where I have the power to do so!!

Welcome to blogger world my dear- having a blog is one of the best ways to procrastinate, so nicely done! And it shall be my honour to be the first one to leave a comment on Lelly's little purple world.
Why do you still make plans? Because you like to fool yourself, much like I do too, and pretend that you can fit seven hundred things into one day, while really you just need a bit of time off every once in a while. Don't work yourself too hard, life is too short. And yeah... look who's talking! It's Miss I-work-60-hours-a-week-AND-go-to-uni! Don't worry about taking me seriously- I like to give advice that I don't follow myself.
Hi Mi,
