빈둥거리다 to screw around

#. 빈둥거리다 to screw around

 

시간을 낭비하면서 해야 할 일을 하지 않는 것을 의미

 

What are you doing in here? You're supposed to be cleaning your room.

> I just need 10 more minutes. I'm almost done this game.

Quit screwing around and clean your room. We've got company coming over in 1 hour and your room is a pigsty.

> Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know, I know. I'll just it done. Just 10 more minutes, OK?

No. Now, I'm turning it off and taking it away from you.

 So, how's our thesis coming along?

> You know what? Don't even ask me about it.   글쌔? 말도마  

> I just don't want to talk about it right now.

Oh, well, don't you have, like, a major deadline coming up? I thought it was kind of crunch time for you.

> It is. And do tell you the truth, I'm just so far behind.   맞아, 솔직히 말하자면, 정말 뒤처졌어

> I haven't even really started yet. Like, I just keep goofing off and procrastinating.

> I'm having a really hard time staying focused and getting this thing started.

Well, the best advice I can give you is to go to a library or something.

A place where everyone's doing work. Sometimes that helps with motivation.

> That's a good idea. You know what? I should probably try that.

Well, good luck, anyway.
