Procrastination

- the act of replacing high-priority tasks with those that are of a lower quality. 

On GCSE results day, I said to myself - If I do manage to get onto AS-Level Fine Art, I will definitely put all efforts into it.. Outcome? Well, it sort of worked.. for the first week of school. 

I am fully aware that taking Fine Art is a really, time consuming subject, shall we say. It requires a lot of hard work and determination in order to succeed, have a strong portfolio and final piece for a decent grade. 

For the past 2 homeworks although I've been achieving straight A grades in them, I actually feel really bad for getting supposed 'good' grades, because I feel that I simply haven't put enough effort, time and determination into completing them in a manner that will make me feel proud of the work I have done. 

It's currently half term - where we have a week off school. We've been set the task to plan, organise and be 100% sure of what we're going to do in the weeks up to and possibly including the Christmas period. This means that I'll need to be bursting fully of ideas when I go back into school.. knowing what I'll be doing every single lesson and actually DOING the work. 

The title of this post is 'Procrastination', and this is what I've been doing for the past few days. I know 110% that I should be doing art, in fact, I've promised myself to 'finish' what is required during the first half of the week, but I've found that every time I sit myself down to do some work, I either get a sort of 'Artist's Block' or distractions.. (procrastination) 

But hey - hopefully, this procrastination 'session' will be the last one:
