10 Thesis Procrastinating Things

10 things that are keeping me from being extra productive on my thesis writing

1. Staring at a sentence forever to find the perfect words to get my point across. Usually results in epic_fail.
2. Thinking about the freedom I will have once my thesis is approved and I officially graduate.
3. Checking my email. Every 5 minutes. Even though I know there are no new emails to read.
4. Wikipedia. Need I say more?
5. I recently caved in and purchased a personal VPN so that I can have easier/freer access to the Internet across the Great Firewall. What does this mean? I am able to use Facebook again.
6. Nostalgia. Reminiscing. Again. Nothing new there.
7. Trying to remember how cold Shanghai can get during the winter. Cold weather is almost here, but the last few days have been nothing but abundant sunshine. The false sense of security before winter hits us.
8. Eating peanut butter and jelly. But in Chinese steamed buns, mantou 馒头
9. Organizing my iTunes.
10. Writing this list.
