Fort Building (is the best thing ever)

I know this is gonna sound silly and immature, but I love building forts. You know, the kind you made when you were 6 and watched Winnie the Pooh in? Yeah. There's just something amazing, something a little magical about sitting in a little fort made from blankets and random pieces of furniture, something that makes you feel like a little kid again.
Okay, I just had to get that off my chest, I'm gonna get all serious business now.
"Yeah because you're such a serious person Jade"
Shut up conscious (I had to google how to spell that, and I realised when I google things the tab I use google on has a troll face on it, weird.)
Anyway, remember I said about that art project thing?
Yeah, that kinda failed. Instead of doing that like I said I would, my weekend has consisted of drawing a llama woman super hero (photo up soon?), listening to music both real and parodies, making forts with my equally childish best friends (gotta love them) and eating quite a lot of chocolate (sorry I know I shouldn't I'll try harder).
To be quite honest, I prefer the way it actually went. I've never been able to plan things out and carry those plans out, and I'm not surprised that I still can't. Ah well, I guess that is just the way I am, and if I enjoy what happens when I just go with the flow and stuff, maybe I should just embrace it!
Hugs and stuff, yay

Procrastination is just so fun though!

Procrastination is something I do a lot of, really. I don't even mean to do it, I swear! But everytime there's something I need to do (like seriously need to do) like, say, revise for a science GCSE perhaps (terrifying stuff I know, first ever GCSE and all that), my brain suddenly decides 'just 5 more minutes on twitter', or 'oh a little nap wouldn't hurt'. I end up sitting on twitter for ages before realising I was meant to be doing something else, or sleeping for a couple of hours and waking up like 'oh nooo'.

The worst thing is that I know I'll be fine as soon as I start revising, or start that art project I set myself (more on that in a minute), but it's getting myself to start that gets me every single time. I'd rather stare at a wall or something than do what I'm actually meant to be doing, even if what I'm meant to be doing is something I actually enjoy, like art.
So basically, procrastination sucks. Big time.

Anyway, about that art project I've set myself! I decided that, in order to get me doing more stuff that I'm proud of, I'm going to set myself things to do; the art project thing (nice name I know) is one of them; in short the art project thing is where I set myself 1 or 2 week 'projects' based on a topic. The very first one I'm doing is on fairgrounds and funfairs, and I might even put some of the stuff I do on here, so look out for that and for the other goals I'm gonna set myself!:D
Byeeeee *hugs and stuff*
