    procrastinators?

    Anyone else a procrastinator? I'm probably the worst or pretty close to it! It takes over and there's nothing I can do about it!! My excuse is "I work best under pressure"..or atleast I like to think that's true

    I'm one of the founding members of that club.

    And it's true... some people do work better under pressure.

      Not I. I'm the on time guy that yells at everyone for being late.

        Ah, being late and procrastinating are two different things... although can be related I guess.

          I just think that I use the "I work best under pressure" mentality to the limit, I always end up in the same position (me freaking out trying to get something done and it ending up less than adequate or me not prepared for exam or whatever)

              ROFL @ Blen!!

              Good one.

              I'm kinda in between I guess... I procrastinate on the things I know I can get done in a very short amount of time, but if I'm not sure or know it will take a while, I do it VERY far in advance so I'm not freaking out when it comes time for it to be due... Guess I'm just an odd-ball
              Don't think of it as being outnumbered, think of it as a wide target selection.

                i'm not a procrastinator. i just don't care enough to exert myself. of course if i have enough incentive (large part of final grade) and nothing better to do, i do it. i regularly write 5 page papers a few hours before they're due. usually takes me two hours. one for research and one for writing. i get A's on them too.

                    I always procrastinated in school. But now that I've got a real job, I don't have enough time to do what I'm supposed to let alone procrastinate. Oh wait I'm on here all day long, sign me up for the club.

                      You guys are n00b procrastinators(maybe w/ exception of miscue and magman, who gets good grades) I do my work the night its due at 12am. I still get above an 85 on it. Example? I think so, i studied for 1 hour for our chemistry final exam, 1 out of 5 A's in the class, thank you thank you. (I know people who studied all DAY and got B - C) I am one of those very very smart kids who just doesnt try because im lazy, why go ALL THE WAY when you can sit around all day and still get by with high B +? Procrastination FOREVER!

                          I'm a huge procrastinator, and I really don't like it at all. I want to change, but its too hard and oddly enough, I do my best work while procrastinating. I hope to be able to change, it will be a slow process. Procrastinating is no fun for me, as it puts me under too much stress I don't need to be in yet I do it.

                            By n00b i meant someone who isnt good at it, not someone who is new at it. If you procrastinate and still get bad grades, you arent doing it right....

                              I don't get grades any more. Just raises. Lets say my last raise was very nice. And I'm still on here almost all day every day.
