Lists...

I am so good at writing lists.

This is what i have learnt after 4 weeks of bible college.

Every night i get home and write down everything i have to do. The problem is, while i'm awesome at writing these long lists, i absolutely have no skill in crossing things off.

A week ago after a lecture i decided to start my essay. I got books out from the library, found a quiet area and wrote a list of what i needed to do to accomplish this goal.
I did get to cross off the "borrow books from the library"... but then it got tricky. The next thing on the list was to read the books...
i love reading and all but i tell you what, in the hour and a half that i tried to get through one lousy chapter, the worlds most distracting things happened all around me at once... continuously... for real. And as soon as i put the book down the world was quiet again. Bizarre.
Third thing that was on the list. Write the essay.... well that ain't gona happen if i haven't read the chapters.. so i skipped to the fourth thing on the list which was.... take a break! Sweet.

Well i guess in this scenario i did ok because i was able to cross 50% of my list off!

But still, i'm sure you understand me. Or maybe you don't. Maybe i'm the only one who struggles crossing things off their lists!

Perhaps if i didn't have the internet on my computer with distractions like this blog, or Facebook, or email, i'd actually get work done.
I'd put that suggestion on my list, but we all know what would (or wouldn't) happen then!

Oh dear, and now it's too late to work on my current list... will have to write a longer one for tomorrow instead..

G'night all!
