11 YouTube Channels For When You're Procrastinating
Huffpost.com

We've all done it. We spend hours in front of our computers watching YouTube videos and telling ourselves, "Just one more video." Procrastination at its finest. Whether it's putting off that essay or ignoring the chapter you need to read, YouTube has a plethora of videos at your fingertips to distract you. It's okay. It'll get done eventually. So here's eleven of the most addicting YouTube channels to fulfill all of your procrastination needs.

1. Cat videos

Need I say more? This isn't really a channel, but YouTube is filled with an abundance of adorable and hilarious cat videos to watch at your leisure.

2. Miniature Space

This channel, a personal favorite, it dedicated to making tiny food in tiny kitchens with, you guessed it, tiny utensils. It's adorable and oddly satisfying.

3. Dr. Sandra Lee (aka Dr. Pimple Popper)

Admit it. You'd be lying if you said you haven't fallen victim to watching one of her procedures. There's just something about all of that gross stuff coming out of that disturbingly large bump. You can't look away.

4. CathyMay15

You may remember her from a video that went viral of her singing something called "Boom Boom Way". Her videos are hilarious and her message to her haters is actually pretty inspiring.

5. Makeup tutorials

Even if you only wear makeup once every three months (I mean, 8 AM's are killer. Am I right??), you're still going to watch hours upon hours of these pretending you're going to try them one day.

6. Creepypasta

There's something about watching scary videos while sitting home alone. No matter how scared you get, you just keep watching. Oh well, Slenderman still isn't as scary as that exam tomorrow.

7. Vlogbrothers

John and Hank Green post an assortment of videos about literally everything under the sun. They can be quite educational, but with a good amount of stupidity mixed in.

8. Buzzfeed

Okay, c'mon. You can go from watching videos about guys trying things girls have to endure to dogs eating brunch in just a few videos. You can get lost here.

9. DIY Videos

You can pretend like you're going to make that bird feeder all you want, but you're really just procrastinating. But, it's still fun to watch people make stuff, even if you're going to save it and never actually do it. Or try it and fail. Those are entertaining too.

10. Miranda Sings

Okay this girl is just hilarious. She tries things you'd never dream of trying and makes hilarious music videos. You could just watch her face for hours.

11. TED Talks

These are actually really motivational and you can really learn a lot. So you can procrastinate by pretending like you're doing something meaningful. And you'll probably learn something in the process!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
