Procrastination... or NOT procrastination?!

It is difficult for some to justify not working when they should be working. Many would call it procrastination, some laziness, but ultimately its a psychological or psycho-social feeling of guilt at not being a productive member of society... perhaps for an extended period of time.

I disagree. I believe all time is time well spent, even the time between moments. It's just a matter of knowing how to shape your time reading PhD Comics, playing Scrabulous on Facebook, browsing the joyful wonder of Boing Boing, or clicking away on your green XO laptop (OLPC) into something worthwhile--something meaningful, not just to others, but to yourself.

Anyway, I thought I'd share that with folks at the beginning of the semester before too much guilt and self-loathing sets in.

(And if you're still stuck, there's always Arts TA Peer sessions to attend...

Happy New Year, everyone!
