The act of deferring a task to a different time.
This is what I am currently doing. Instead of studying for my math quiz which is in approximately 30 minutes, I am looking up the definition for the word procrastination. I've been at college for about two months now and I've never experienced this word so much as I have in these last two months. In high school, I was always one to do my homework days in advanced but since I've been here, there is always something else I could be doing.
Hanging out with friends
Working out at the gym
Going out to eat
Shopping
Napping
Catching up on the latest TV shows (i.e.. Grey's Anatomy, Vampire Diaries, Gossip Girl)
Simply go to bed earlier
Catch up with my roommate (who I rarely see)
...and the list goes on...
Right now, it's blogging.
My sister recently introduced me to blogging because she also decided it could be a fun way to express herself. In my marketing club meeting last week, we had a speaker talk about how important social media can play in a person's life. It fascinated me and made me more aware of all the different types of social media out there. I then became inspired to start my own blog! I'm not really sure who wants to read my thoughts, but just in case, here is an outlet for them to be able to :)
