We've all been there. You have a ton of stuff to do, most of it with a strict deadline and the fact that their completion is required makes them the most uninteresting set of things to do on the planet. The entire world becomes your opportunity to procrastinate - and here are 10 ways you probably do it.

1. You make yourself an overly exorbitant snack.

Ordinarily putting in such a large amount of effort into your meal would have never even crossed your mind but because you are desperate for a distraction from responsibility, gorging yourself seems like an extremely viable option for killing time.

2. You Google meaningless things.

How do I spell my name in Swedish? Who is the 13th President of our country? What 50 foods do vegan’s love to tell everyone about? If it isn’t Google, you got lost wading through the Internet and all its vast amounts of useless knowledge and madness *ahem* Buzzfeed, I’m looking at you. In fact, maybe someone is reading this very article in an attempt to hide from their own work.

3. You watch a how-to YouTube video and then landed somewhere in the realm of feeding giraffes.

That damn related video’s section that pops up on your sidebar on YouTube, they just all look SO INTERESTING. Can someone explain to me why Facebook thought it would be a good idea to make video’s automatically play? As if that website hasn’t stolen enough hours of my life already.

4. You write out your schedule for the next three months instead of actually conquering the things on your agenda for the day.

Organization is greater than accomplishment… said no one ever.

5. You start a new Netflix series, and emerged five hours later to find that the sun had set.

6. You crack open a book and (probably pretend to) read it.

That novel that’s been sitting on your bedside table for the past three months to make you seem sophisticated and intelligent, but has just collected dust and yet to be opened finally made its debut chapter one appearance – for the first and last time most likely.

7. You organize your entire room, friends' rooms, the kitchen, bathrooms, etc.

You have never felt more productive… except you aren’t actually accomplishing anything more than putting off what actually needs to get done. But at least now your closet is color coordinated.

8. You do your laundry.

Yes, that basket of more than two months worth of dirty clothes finally has a date with your washing machine. Your wardrobe will thank you. While you didn’t manage to get your work done, at least now you don’t have to wear the exact same sweater and jeans/yoga combo that you pick up off your floor every morning, ever again. But you probably still will.

9. You clean out your email inbox.

Those 1,692 unread messages you had in your inbox have finally been sorted, organized, and placed in the trash like all that crap should have been in the first place. Those Sephora sales emails will never again distract you, or your wallet. Until tomorrow.

10. You go to the gym.

Now this is by far the most heinous use of your time in regards to procrastination. Who actually wants to sweat, or be healthy, or loose weight? Not me. But when it’s between working out or sitting down to finish your assignments – the gym is going to win every time.
