14. Procrastination. If you had more time, you’d be able to put it off longer. What do you put off to the last moment? Why? Tell a story about how you just barely got something done in time – or didn’t.
Alternate: Splat! Use that word in a story or a poem.

Advertising

There is one ad on tv that used just drive me crazy and I don't really know why. This ad was the Country Wide Home Loans ad. No matter what channel you were watching it would still play. If you were watching cartoons you were likely to see this add. A lot of children channels even had this ad, it seemed I couldn't get away from it. But it seemed that around the time our stock market started to sink and the houseing market stopped so did the ad. And then I remember hearing about how it had given out a lot of bad loans and was a big contributor to stopping the market. So then I realized that this ad was not only driving me crazy it was slowly causing an even bigger problem in the stock market. So now because the loan market isn't doing so well I think they either went out of business or were baught by another company, so their ads don't run anymore. So in the end it seems that when they thought they were making all this money off of their ads that were driving me crazy they were really spelling out the end for their company.
