I feel like this one is sort of a cheatskies post, cuz I've already presented this elsewhere and stuff, but too bad, my writing space, my rules.

*Acting all innocent*
Uhm, miss, yesterday, I was really busy and I couldn't
finish my WIT essay because I didn't have enough ti-*crazy noise*
WHOA WHOA WHOA whoa whoa...
Did I just hear what I just heard? Yeah, hello, little angel
guy on the shoulder here speaking
What was that bullshit you just hit your teacher with?
Didn't have enough time? Didn't have enough time? Didn't have enough TIME?! My goodness, the ridiculousness of that statement
Didn't have enough time? Didn't have enough time? Didn't have enough TIME?! My goodness, the ridiculousness of that statement
So you're telling me, yesterday, while you spent the hours perusing videos of
crazy cat, in hats doing satirical acts, saying "That was tight", not
once did you exit that YouTube website, you filthy LIAR.
Honestly man, I thought better of you. But you're just like
the others, stuck in a procrastinator's loop, shackled in these chains of time
wasting constrains, while you frantically search for the remains of your own
sanity. You say, "I'll do it later," but you and I both know that
later's a never. Every minute you consume from the time you procrastinate, is
one minute crumbling away. In the moment, it's all cool, but eventually the
thrill of the activity dies down, it's 1 A.M and you feel like a fool. Having
not touched anything but that track pad tool, clicking through useless link
after link, you've wilted away yet another day, trying to formulate your own
tilted mindset. It's getting pretty difficult, I bet.
And with this, you have the audacity to announce that you
didn't have enough time, when the teacher provided you with ample amounts of it
with the hours spent in class, accounting for the weeks already wasted away
behind your auspicious desires and that computer screen, with its alphanumeric
display.
Procrastination doesn't seem all that bad right? It's alright;
I'm having fun right now so I'll be bright? But it's like a traitor, binding to
your mind, an idea of self worth and power, that time is on your side and you
control every hour. Then it lets you down, punches you in the face, and turns
you around, to the reality of it all, a world where you'll chip away at your
own mind, until you've reached a point in time, when there's nothing left to
chip away at.
Brotha, I'm just trying to help out here, because you and I,
we're in this together, ya know? So listen carefully. I've got a secret tip for
you. Next time you're saying, "Oh, just one more YouTube video, no
biggie," remember that one video clip can turn into 2, 10 or 50. The time
you put to waste, could have been time used well by a doctor or scientist, to
make haste with putting some goodness back into the world we deem a terrible
place. Now go forth, BE that doctor, BE that scientist to be an activist, not
for what you've done, but what you can become, if you step away from
procrastinations thievery and into further productivity.
