My Favorite Time-Wasting Techniques

I want to share my favorite timewasting techniques. Let’s be honest …I’ve been awake since 9:30 am “working” but a lot of that time has been spent wasting time online. OK, here we go:

1) Online TV - Exam time is a great time to catch up on all those TV shows you missed out in the year! I am a huge fan of comedies, both new and old, but I just started watching a new reality show that is quickly becoming one of my favorites.

2) Movie trailers – With trailers that are much better quality than YouTube as well as a bunch of interesting Indie films, I probably spend 3-5 hours a week watching these on my computers. I have one friend who texts me every time she finds a new trailer that she thinks is interesting which usually leads to me finding three more that I want to see. It’s a bad addiction.

3) Movies – Just like TV shows, catch up on all those movies you haven’t had time to watch. Or, if you’re like me, go back and rewatch those classics films like Star Wars. Who knew there were so many AMAZING lines in those early movies. Nothing is better than a 2 hour break from Strategic Studies by watching Star Wars and analyzing the Rebellion’s Clausewitzian strategies.

4) Blogs – In addition to writing my blog (which trust me, is a huge time waster … though I hope in a good way!) I also regularly check other blogs. There’s one called “This is why you’re fat” which is probably the most disgusting and most beautiful blog I have ever seen. Where else can you see pictures of deep fried Cadbury Eggs, Junk Food Pizzas, or other culinary delights like that? There’s another that always has some crazy technological doo-dads on there, and finally my absolute fave is just a funny funny site.

5) Facebook. 'Nuff said.
