Its like asking why a dog barks or a chicken lays an egg.
Sure, there is a scientific answer, but the much more practical one is simply: because that's what they do. Dogs bark. Chickens lay eggs.
Its like asking a toddler why the sky is blue. She will merely look at you confused, wondering why you beat her to the punch line, without understanding why the question is being asked of her.
Why am I procrastinating?
Because I am a college student. Because, if I plan to be an academic someday, I will spend many hours playing Gem Swap on Yahoo and browsing Facebook statuses. It is simply required of me.
But while, I scroll through your pictures from the 90s and align three green gems, and then four yellow, I will be thinking about Kierkegaard. As each gem falls into place, I will be outlining my paper in my subconscious, realizing that 20 pages is manageable. And when the game ends and I've looked at every last photo from your junior high days, I will head back to the pages, and type another page before resorting to a game of Diner Dash for old times sake.
Why do I procrastinate?
Because its a part of the process.
