Procrastination is something that most of us have done all throughout high school, and especially something that we will add do senior year. This year the amount of work that we have received from our teachers isn't so bad unless you procrastinate like what most of us do. We are given multiple days for assignments that we get but we all insist on waiting until the last minute to do things. I for one have been a huge procrastinator this year, but I get most of my work done on time. For some reason most of us have that play now work later mentally but it would have be so much less stressful if we could reverse that phrase. Doing the work and then having fun makes having fun so much better because you won't have to worry about your work that has to be done in the future.
For example, it's Wednesday night and I might have to spend a little bit more time doing homework tonight compared to other nights because I have been procrastinating a lot. I have had a few weeks to type up my about the author and about the time I messed up, but I'm waiting until today to get that task knocked down. Good looks to Mrs. Fletcher for extending the due dates for our papers. Tonight I also have to complete the vocabulary and study for the quiz. All this work wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't wait until tonight to start doing my work. All the work that I listed before is just the English homework that I procrastinated to do. I also waited until tonight to do my Econ homework and stats homework, and I have a test and quiz in both of these classes tomorrow.
No matter how much I try to do my work on time I usually never do because I know that I'll get it done before the deadline no matter what. I know that in college that might not be able to work because college work is a little bit lengthier than high school work, and the content in the work is a lot more in depth and complicated. To be successful in college we need to plan out what we are going to do so we don't have to wait until the last night to do a paper. I know that it's much easier said than done, but like in sports and school you have to keep practicing until you get better.
I feel the same way Ricardo, I wait till the last night to do everything like the blogging which I'm doing right now and I have the essays due tomorrow. It like a bad habit that you can't get rid of how hard you try. I know its not to procrastinate but I always seem to get my work done before it's due but there's always a bunch of worrying and stress involved in it. But there's always next time to try not to procrastinate right?
ReplyDeleteYeah Adam, Faizon, and I just talked about how we need to stop procrastinating, but actions speak louder than words. Faiz doesn't procrastinate though just Adam and me.
