Here I am procrastinating again. School is almost over for the semester and here I sit writing on my blog instead of writing three reports and preparing one presentation and studying for one final. It is like a curse. It seems like I can’t not procrastinate even if I want to. I always end up doing things at the last minute. It seems like I can get things done faster if I wait until the last minute. When I am close to the deadline I am forced to focus and get it done as fast as I can. If I am not close to the deadline then I get distracted easily and find other things to do rather than what I need to. Sometimes I find myself doing the dishes and dusting rather than writing a paper that I am trying to get an early start on. I probably clean more when I am procrastinating than when I am cleaning. Over the last few years I have tried to break the habit. Even at the beginning of this semester I was doing pretty well. Until I got about half way through I was one day ahead on everything. It was actually pretty nice and much less stressful. Last week I had two assignments, one presentation and two reports due on Wednesday. There I was Tuesday night and all day Wednesday getting it all together. It is beginning to look like this Tuesday night and Wednesday will be much the same. Old habits die hard.
