Time well waitsted !

As we all know this week we had to observe ourselves to see what we use our extra 70 hours in a week doing. Remarkably i never had 70 hours to work with it was more like 30 hours of extra time in a week. As i conducted this experiment i found that the 30 hours a week are spent sometimes on beneficial things, but mostly on not so beneficial things. Throughout the week i watched myself melt into the couch, daydreaming for an hour straight. I watched myself pull an all nighter on the computer watching random things. And i even spent hours debating whether i should start my work for school. I never seemed to realize how bad of a procrastinator i was until the end of this experiment.

Not only did i spend my 70 hours a week doing nothing i spent most of my time working more hours at work than usual. Work is a very hard thing to maintain when i am a full time college student. Sometimes im even working the latest shift which brings me into the new day and i find myself tired in the mornings. To get to work i take the bus and the time i spend riding the bus back and forth adds up tremendously.

In conclusion may seem like an abundance of time but, it really isn't simply because things come up randomly. For example, if my boss calls me into work, missing the city bus, longer school days, having to clean my room, organizing my self, watching my siblings, taking longer than expected on homework, doctor oppointments, or driving class these are just a FEW things that happen randomly and unexpectedly.
