Yes, I did wait until the second to last week of summer break to start this assignment. No, I don’t really regret it.
Yes, I am panicking due to the bugginess of my phone that isn’t posting my replies to you losers’ blog posts. No, I’m not gonna cry about it.
You see, as a very, very lazy person, I’ve perfected my ability to work under pressure. At the last minute, I have an 85% chance to pull through the struggles of time constraints and come out on top. Don’t ask about the other 15%.
The negative side of this almost perfect superpower is that of boredom. As an example, I started a painting for my stepdad a week before Father’s Day. And now it’s sitting across from me while I write this entry, cursing me with the inescapable depths of procrastination, deadlines, and disinterest.
It’s a 60-95% percent chance that I’ll abandon a big project before it’s finish. Which isn’t a very good roll of the dice, considering this is being written hours before the first day of junior year.
Regardless, I need to keep working on that. I really do. Because, seeing as this is supposed to be the most difficult year of high school, I’m not gonna get through it by barely putting effort into my assignments. This isn’t gonna be the bad start of a bad year. I plan on using my time more effectively and not letting the time constraints, no matter how demanding, suck the life and quality out of my projects and assignments.
I find myself repeatedly scrolling down to check the word count as I type this up. It’s getting pretty disastrously worrisome. I really need to use my time better.
And I need to put more effort into things! That includes personal projects for fun and assignments required for classes. I’m more than halfway done with this entire assignment. I hope the quality isn’t diminishing as I make up words to define so I can pull the last stops to try and finish this.
We’ll see if I pull through. :,)
What is up, Veronica?! I hope you've had an amazing summer. I think I''m going to say the same opening line in the rest of the comments I post. Your procrastination is marvelous. I'm proud of you for still getting everything done, even though I'm sure you wanted to have a mental break down. Now let me tell you, I have had about three mental break downs because of this assignment. I did not know if I was doing the book work right and, to be honest, I still don't. But hey, that's okay! I'm getting it done. The painting thing for your step dad sounds pretty rad, dude. I hope it turns out great!

Yo yo yo, V. I miss you TONS. I am having the same problem with not being able to reply to you loser's posts on my phone. I even followed Tyler's tutorial he sent me and just had no luck. I remember you talking to me about that painting for your step dad. I believe that some day you'll finish it. You'll get under that pressure you and I both know very well to give him a gift and you'll be like "holy crap.. i needa do that." I also believe in you to get this assignment done. I love ya and I hope we both pull through with out procrastination skills.

ReplyDeleteProcrastination is a powerful skill that only some could master. For me, it seems to hasten my demise whilst also giving me the power to fulfill my time, using every last second of my corroding energy. You seem to have learned quickly on how to use this procrastination to your advantage, as well. But I can only imagine how stressed you are. For some reason, no matter the position I get myself into, I can always find a way out. I hope that skill seems to find its way to you, too. I'm glad, though, that you have began work on your blogs. It will pay off. -Robert
