Procrastination
So i'm supposed to be doing my organic chemistry online homework..or studying for one of my two tests. but nope. not me. i'm blogging.
procrastination. so many mixed feelings attached to that word. Like think about how many times you thought about doing that presentation or paper a week early to avoid procrastinating.......
....now think about how many times you actually did it early. i'm guessing close to none.
it's actually a skill. to master the art of procrastination is a gift far surpassing any other talent out there. You have to equally balance doing EVERYTHING in your life at the last minute possible, but still coming through in the end.
because although procrastinating means waiting till something is due or right up till the deadline...the task at hand always seems to get done. it was just done very efficiently.
you could spend weeks half assing your way through a powerpoint presentation for a class. or you could do it the night of and whip it out [under pressure] in like 5 hours.
thats another thing i forgot to mention in the skill of procrastination: the pressure is on. so if you are blessed with the gift of procrastination you are able to pump out your projects, papers, studying, homework in minimal amount of time under great pressure of the deadline.
and if your REALLY talented: you can blog while doing all this.
