There are a lot of things that waste my time. I always wonder how much time I would save and what I could actually do with all those saved up minutes and hours. Some examples:
The Internet. The biggest time waster of my life. I was almost going to say that school was the biggest time waster of my life but, yes, school is important and it's not wasting my time one hundred percent. I think I do some cool stuff on the Internet. I learn a lot about anything at all, I meet a lot of people and have lots of friends whom I love, I'm part of an amazing community of people who just want to have fun and decrease World Suck while we're at it. But, yes, as much as I hate to admit it, it does take up a lot of my time. I mean Facebook *cough*Farmville*cough*, Tumblr, Twitter, YouTube... I could be reading while I'm seeding fake crops, I could be taking pictures outside instead of looking at them on the Internet, I could be talking to real people instead of texting something with 140 characters.
School. It is a time waster, okay? Think about it. We learn so much stuff that we're not going to need in the long-term, we have to put up with ridiculous school systems spread across different countries and endure the sacrilege that is piling yourself in books so you can get into an even more demanding establishment. I could be traveling, meeting said Internet friends, learning interesting things... but no. Of course not.
Sleeping. Don't get me wrong, I love to sleep, it's one of my favorite things to do. I love sleeping in and waking up at about 12PM, it's wonderful even though most of your day has already gone by. But the thing is, most people spend seven to twelve hours sleeping. What's the point? You could catch up on your work, finish your book, be available all the time, shop at any hour you want and actually live longer. At least that's the impression you would have, right? Imagine summing up all the hours you've slept in your life. Now that's a time waster.
Until tomorrow!
