procrastinate

15 responses

irajohann Sometimes I feel that I procrastinate because I am addicted to cramming... or sometimes I feel that the task at hand is easy and won't take me hours to finish. There are a lot of reasons but I feel that I procrastinate because I am self-confessed slacker.

When was the last time you Cried?

Nightshade13 @Nightshade13 (74) • Philippines 27 Sep 12

Hi Mylotters! Good day! "When was the last time i Cried?" this is the question that comes to my mind when I'm all alone in my room just sitting and having my coffee in the morning, i just realize that i haven't cried for a...

cried

irajohann I haven't really heard of fake cries/crying. I believe crying is some sort of a release and should have a compelling reason in order for someone to cry -- whether you're worried or sad or too happy. It takes too much emotion, and energy so I guess faking it is...

tryxiness @tryxiness (4544) • Philippines 26 Dec 07

irajohann I agree with you that trust is really a big issue on friendship. Once broken, it is less likely to be repaired. It happened to me as well and now, we just communicate once in a while but the thought of sharing my life again with them is still a dilemma for...

irajohann I know that there exists a diabetic club here in our country. I can do online research on this but I feel that most of it are hearsay until I can find someone who can validate the information.

How many of you have read "The Sandman"?

irajohann @irajohann (95) • Philippines 15 Oct 07

I started reading a graphic novel called "The Sandman". I started with volume 6: Fables and Reflections. The graphics are really great and the story of Neil Gaiman is really creative/imaginative. I haven't seen a copy of the first...

irajohann Actually, "The Sandman" consists of about 10 volumes but I am trying to secure the first 3 volumes. I'll lend you volume 6 as it is a "stand-alone" novel from the series.
