I have a very long vacation from school (6 weeks total, started this week), and I had been mentally piling up things to do over the break. Things I wanted to learn, read, play, watch, etc. Now that the break is here I’ve done a bit of it, but I find that more often than not I’m just lazily surfing the net or refreshing pages on forums.
Objectively I know this isn’t much worse than some of the things on my mental list (playing Fallout 3, for example), but to me even playing a long video game is starting to feel like work. Well, not really work, but like an investment of time and effort — if that makes any sense.
I’ve managed to drag myself out of it, I think, but I still find it weird. Maybe I’ve been spending too much time online. Wait, what am I saying? I can’t believe I just wrote that…
I know what that feels like…
Some people have lazy sundays, some people have lazy weeks, while some have lazy years. I find myself surfing the internet for hours on end doing nothing productive. I’m pretty sure after school is finished up, and I start working full time, things ought to change.
