you know that you're procrastinating when...

1. the dishes suddenly need washing. even though you normally leave them to accumulate in the sink till the end of the day

2. you start chatting with people you wouldn usually never say hi to, in fact, when you see them come online you'd usually change your status to 'away'

3. you suddenly feel an urge to start baking

4. you convince yourself that sitting down for more than 15 mins at a stretch is bad for your back

5. you eat. a lot.

6. you stare into space a lot and somehow brainwash yourself into thinking that you're deep in thought about your essay.... when you're actually thinking of bak chor mee and sambal stingray

7. you start planning for your holidays, because you can never be too prepared!

8. emails you normally delete seem particularly interesting
e.g. NUS Entrepreneurship Centre Outreach Announcement

9. ooo... shiny

10. you start writing a list of things that prove you're a great porcrastinator

11. did i miss anything...? ... ...
