I've been meaning to make this thread for a while now.

So, here I am cruising Halforum when I should be working. I have a massive paper due Friday night, 11:59 pm. I've had this assignment for a good month and a half now, but naturally I didn't want to do it and kept putting it off. It's just too easy to find something else to do.

So, what are you avoiding right now?

Brother, I am avoiding way too much stuff.
-write up for my boss
-a collaboration write up
-write up for some anaerobic media
-8 page paper for class

I'm seeing a trend.

Oh, get to work, you lazy ass!

Now that I've finished university, all I'm really procrastinating is getting a job and moving out, and getting a life in other ways. During the last few years I procrastinated pretty much every assignment, with only fear of failure pulling me through.

Procrastination was a huge problem of mine. Lately I've been trying to correct this problem with good results. If there is something I need to do, I finish it off immediately and relax for the remaining time I have. I'm slowly but surely getting used to doing this new habit now. :)

I've been putting off a lot at work. It's not even stuff that I do directly. I need to tell people to get these things done and I keep putting it off.

It's tough when you don't care.

President William H. Taft once said "Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow." And on that note, I'm going to bed despite having half of my paper left to do before tomorrow night.

Never do today what you can guilt someone else into doing tomorrow.

Never do today what you won't get the blame for tomorrow.

Never do today what someone else ought to have done yesterday.

I'm putting off posting in the cosplay thread. I'm having back troubles and I can't sit at my computer very long. I'll get back to it soon, hopefully.

Have a concept summary for a business venture (the video game one I mentioned a while back) that is due in a business plan competition on Monday.

It only has to be 3-pages long, but I need to answer very specific questions, with backed up research, an income statement, and it needs to be good enough, since they'll hack off the bottom 20% of the entries.

And yet, here I sit, ambling around, as my thoughts refuse to become coherent in my head.

I've got yet another major paper due tomorrow. And again, I really, really don't want to do it. So here I am, goofing off rather than writing.

I drive myself crazy with my own procrastination. I do it with even the smallest of things: getting food, going to the bathroom, posting in threads...you name it...

Searching for sources is probably the way of procrastinating I hate the most, for I don't even realize I'm doing it. Here I was, spending the last half hour reading some very interesting paper on republican views from a few centuries ago... Except I can't use it as a source, and I could've known that by just checking the date first ~_~

I played Tactics last night instead of writing out a student teaching reflection. I wrote it in 15 minutes about a half an hour before bed. I've written so many of those things, I have a template in my head that I just fill in with current reading vocabulary and feeeeelings...

My creed is like the quote "Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow," except I don't have that sense of urgency.

Is like Masturbation, it seems like a good idea at the time, but in the end you are only fucking yourself.



I love the oldies but goodies.
