Thursday, September 08, 2005Hustle while you wait
i think when those people came up with the 'attributes of a science graduate' commonly seen in university promotional brochures, they forgot to to put down "able to multitask". funny how i'm the most productive and efficient in the lab....preparing and cleaning up during each period of incubation so that i can quickly move on to the next step. then again i think it's because i'm driven by the fact that when i'm done i can go home.
i think i've almost forgotten how to become productive when i'm out of the lab. somehow i've become really good at wasting time recently. it's not that i just mope around at home doing nothing the whole day because i can't afford much time to do that. a typical day is filled with school/work/gym and by then it'd be pretty late and i'd be more than exhausted. but i find that i'm so capable of losing at least 4 hrs to nothingness from the time i get home to the time i go to bed if i've got no report to complete. which makes me wonder how i can put my time to such good use in the lab when i cant do that at home.
i need to break out of habit! *scream*
so now that the weekend has finally arrived, i tried my best to get my ass out of this beanbag i'm sitting on now to clean my room.
and then i remembered why people worked hard in the first place....
it's because you reap what you sow.
i'm pleased with my room now.
i need to waste less time and do more.
i should shower and go to bed.
