Homework vs Food

Is there really a choice? I've got a lot of uni work going on at the moment, with heaps of readings and essays once again piling up and yet, I still feel like I haven't really achieved anything. I've written many posts about procrastination, because it's such a big part of my life, but today I'm going to write about the other big (if not bigger) part of my life, which is food and the two go hand in hand really. For example:

-when I should have started researching for an essay, I was making chocolate chip biscuits. You would think that when the biscuits were in the oven baking, I could have done some work, but no. I decided to sit in front of the oven and watch the biscuits coming to life.

-when I should have started writing my essay, instead my flat mate and I had a chocolate pizza (which I ran down to the corner shop to buy nutella to add to the topping- the results were like heaven!) and watched Bridget Jones' Diaries. With the leftover nutella, I then got a spoon and continued eating it from the jar (I have a really bad sugar addiction).

And I've been making a lot of cups of tea, hot chocolates and chai lattes, just because I have priorities. Plus the other day I bought ground ginger which I have added to the hot chocolate and chaos, which just make them even more delicious. Yesterday I did start on my essay and was actually quite proud with the amount of work I eventually put into it, until today I met up with my tutor, and realised that I was already going way over the word limit, so instead of cutting down in words, I've decided that I'm just going to start all over again on a new topic (it's not as if I have a deadline in a couple of days or anything... um). I'm a really spontaneous and erratic person I feel.
