'I'll so do it today!  I know I will.' I whispered to myself fiercely before snoozing the alarm, turning in my bed and rolling right back to sleep. 

Thursday 28th
10.00 am

I'm awake.  All I have to do is get out of bed, take breakfast and off I go.  Today is going to be the most productive day of my life.

Friday 29th. 
9.00 pm

Okay.  This week and last week haven't been particularly productive. Therefore I shall make a plan to conquer next week.  The weekend is already here and it is useless time to work.
I have to enjoy myself! It's been a long week ...of doing nothing ,but still,  quite the week. 

I keep on justifying reasons of exactly why I stay in bed for hours on end.  Voila!  Me!  A master procrastinator.  It's unsightly. I'll finish this later.

Monday 2nd
4.00pm.

I finally roll out of bed after arguing with my conscious for a little while.  Having completely exhausted memes to look at and a philosophical argument on twitter under Jordan Peterson's feed getting too obfuscated, I really ,really had to go to the loo. 

I slid down the bed and almost landed on the floor.  My unwilling legs unstable as I tottered to the washroom. The sense of relief felt like the second coming of Jesus ( largely depending on whether you were going to heaven or hell.  ) I figured my destination was straight to heaven although sloth,  sloth was what might earn me a straight ticket to hell. 
Washing my hands,  I looked up at the slightly cracked mirror an action rarely done as I disliked what I saw.
My eyes were... normal,brown,like most people on the planet. My hair in dissary although it always was unless I braided it. 4c hair was like steel wire and mine was the ruler of them all. My chocolate complexion riddled with acne.  In a word,  I was unkempt. 

Sighing deeply, I moved away from the mirror  and stuck my tongue out, effectively dismissing my ugly thoughts as I headed to the kitchen. I was up, might as well get something in me.
Banana and peanut butter sandwich. Downed with water. Basic breakfast for basic metabolism.
Besides,  it was healthy , recommended pre- workout snack.

Working out...  It's been a while.  So has laughing until my ribs ache,  meeting with friends (at least I text)  and just doing what I love.  I'm not sure what I love though any more. I could tell you what I did like then, sometime. Not everything is bland per say, of course not, ( this is largely because I am grateful,  they say being grateful brings colour to life...I'm still waiting)  but it sure looks like it when getting out if bed is a problem. 

I have grand ideas and dreams.  I want to be famous,  not for being famous but just so I can do amazing things.  It seems that the world pushes fortune on those who are famous?  Money,  clothes and all round experiences.  But in all this,  I don't even have an ideal definition of success. It's just what I see on Instagram.

This is enough thinking for a day.  I take a shower belting out some Daft Punk - Pentatonix version because its a great, cheery song. At the very least, most of the basic hygiene rituals still stand. Most of it because brushing teeth is a might difficult when you aren't going anywhere or meeting anyone. 

Once done,  I do the same routine I have before ,don some pyjamas, dramatically throw myself in bed,  surf the internet and by 8.00 pm. I've hit the sack.  Before I clock out,  my motto rears its head :
I'll do it tomorrow.
