Snoozy-whoozy

I have a confession. Every morning, my alarm clock is programmed to ring at 7.50am. And every morning, the moment I hear that hideous noise, I will reach out for my clock (with my eyes closed of course), grab the god-forsaken thing, search for the little snooze button at the side, and while pressing it down, say "snoozy-whoozy". Then, I will place the clock back in its original position and resume my sleep, at least for another ten precious minutes.

Everybody has equal amounts of time. Some use it, some abuse it. I've always thought myself to be a good time manager. Hmmm...Now, I'm not so sure. Serve me right for sleeping my Sunday away when I should be doing my assignment. Serve me right for watching my overdue video tapes when I should be writing my article. Serve me right for not resisting a delectable buffet spread when I should be researching for MPM's input session. It's the snowball effect, they call it. The longer you delay, the bigger the ball gets. The snowball that is.

And to think that I used to detest people like that. Pui. I ought to be ashamed of myself...but I'm not, because times like these made me realised that while I may not have good time management skills, I sure am a fast worker.

Snoozy-whoozy anyone?
