How badly do you procrastinate?
I used to not be too bad in middle and high school, after one time in elementary school when I procrastinated on a book report so long that I ended up having to do like 2/3 of it in a single evening. My parents would yell at me if I wasn't doing whatever assignment at an acceptable level of progress. Now that I'm away from them, my procrastination gets worse and worse. With classes I'm actually interested in it's rarely a problem, but for humanities classes, I usually won't start an essay until the day it's due. I just can't force myself to work on essays until it's "do or die". With assigned reading, I generally skip it entirely and just feverishly flip through the book, my notes, and/or Sparknotes while I'm writing the essay. In-class tests kill me. I even procrastinate on things not related to school, if it's something I don't want to do or don't really care about. |

I procrastinated a lot during the school years. It was mainly not doing homework on the weekend until Sunday night. I felt like I have plenty of time to do it later. 
I'm just glad summer is here and I don't have to worry about procrastinating over homework until September. |

Most of the time, but it's usually when I don't feel like doing anything but be in the internet all the time. I start a project the day before it's due. ____________________ If you read this, then you must really be bored. |

I procrastinate on a lot of school-related things, especially studying for my Regents 
I even procrastinate on non-school things sometimes, but not as often as I used to... |

I'm sure I turned my procrastination switch on a few months ago, and have since forgotten where it is.
I keep telling myself to go look for it, but I simply don't feel like it right now... Maybe some other time... ____________________ My current complication: Girl's name who gets no more than 10 minutes of screen time in the actual game. |

I'll admit it, I'm a bit of a chronic procrastinator  Especially when it comes to stuff like essays--and the tedious stuff in hacking like piecing together BG tiles
Posted by Kirby Mario Exactly my problem, but that was more in high school. I've gotten better with it but it's hard for me to work in the library, specially when I get tempted to play games on ZSNES. I think I've finally learned the hard way not to leave my term paper till even 2 nights before it's due. Yet maybe a month later, the shock fades and I do it again  Procrastination's like prison: no matter how bad the experience is, some people just don't learn to avoid it. It's a vicious circle.

I could be doing something productive right now, but instead I've been hovering in the Pointless Post Palace for nearly an hour doing nothing at all.
I could even be making KvSG right now... but maybe later. |

Reminds me of an old title I had, "Instant gratification isn't fast enough"
In other news, for example, take a part of my site: subcon updated 2007/04/29 But from my temp file: SUBCON TEMP 14 05/17/2007 Subcon Temp 14b 05/20/2007 Subcon Temp 05/2?/2007 Subcon Temp 05/28/2007 Subcon Temp 06/08/2007 Subcon Temp 06/09/2007 Actually updating is a joke ____________________ I dealt with it. |
