6 ways in which I've ruined my life this week

It's only Thursday.. and it's not looking good!

I am the Queen of procrastinating. This week, I have procrastinated until the cows came home.

Here are 6 ways in which I've ruined my own life this week.

1) I have two essays due. One for Friday, and one for Monday. I'm positive and optimistic for Monday's essay as I can create my own question for that.. but the one for Friday. I've nailed 750 words. Only another 2000 to go, oh and it's due tomorrow. It's okay though, I'm taking a blog break.. it's more creative than staring out the window for an hour. And plus, I already did that yesterday.

2) I am currently on episode 15 of The Real Housewives of New York City Season 6.. and I only started on Monday night! What is wrong with me. I have two essays due people! Wine glasses have been thrown.. it's too intense to stop now.

3) This is poor week for me this week. I hate the week before I get paid. I basically have £1.50 to last me a week. So naturally, I have spent a lot of the week looking at the things I'm going to buy when I once again am financially stable. Which will last for about a week. And then I'll spend the next 3 weeks eating noodles, crying into my new plush throw that I just had to buy because it was cute.

4) Tidying for my first weekend as a grown up. I moved into my new flat in June, and while my mum has visited me once, my dad still hasn't seen the new pad yet. So being the responsible grown up I now am (har-har) I have invited the folks up to stay with me this weekend. What I didn't factor into my plan was the fact that I need to tidy, organise, stock the fridge - all while writing my essay - and undertaking a 9 hour shift on Saturday. I do it to myself. I really do. 

5) I have had 2 takeouts already this week. My name is Vicky and I am disgusting. But hey, the time that I'm not spending on cooking - I'm spending on writing my essay doing absolutely anything other than being academic. Plus, that Papa Johns lasted me two days. It was a good investment. I'll go to the gym next week, promise, mean it.

6) Getting paid today, instead of Saturday. I woke up today and did my usual.. Launching my bank app so I could start the day off by having a good old laugh at how well I am doing at budgeting and to my surprise I had actually been paid already! Drunk on the fumes of burning all my money, I ordered the Glamour Power List beauty box which I have been eying up for a really long time. If you haven't already got one, or have one on order - get one now. £83 worth of beauty products for £15. Do it! Do it now. I ordered it just for the James Read Sleep Mask Tan alone. My face tans so poorly, so I was always really skeptical about dropping £25 on a 50ml bottle that may or may not work. I just couldn't justify wasting more money on a product that would within a week be banished to the back of the bathroom cabinet with all the other products I just had-to-have, never to be seen again. There will obviously be a beauty blog to follow regarding all of these products once I have had the time to ignore all the other responsibilities in my life and try them out. I also finally took the plunge and purchased the Clinique 3 Step skincare range. My skin is in such poor condition right now, and every little helps right?. I got a little tester of the face wash back in August and my skin was glowing - so I am hopeful that this range will work wonders for me. And last but not least and by no means my favourite (cough cough)I have finally purchased MAC Sculpt and Define Powder in Light Plus. I am too excited about this product. It was previously only available to the MUA's out there. So now I can get my paws on this product, I am dying to get it. Only one more sleep (eeeeeee!)

Are you guys procrastinating too? Please say it's not just me..
