Leaving it to the last minute

This is the story of my life. When it comes to work, if I
can do it last minute, I will.

i find that I work better (especially writing essays or tech
papers) for school the nighe before it's due.

my work usually comes out better too,

exception: if it's a big project with a lot of shit in it,
but for most essays or papers, i can whip them up the night
before they are due MUCH quicker than 2 weeks previous.

works good under stress i guess :/

Yeah, that's what I always do. And when there is no last
minute, I just don't do anything. Which is not good.

Life's too short to do anything.

on sunday, i do the translations for monday, which are
irritating me so much and taking so much time for such a
weak result that usually i give up on the translations for
all the other days... i do think of doing them
though, and sometimes i even take a sheet of paper, the
dictionaries and the sheet to translate. but i give up
after, like, 5-10-15 minutes.

i began to train my nerves though, the last weeks i actually
did more than just monday's translation.

these translations are not worth the time and annoyement
they take, but not doing them isn't worth it either because
then i totally fail at the exams... which doesn't mean i
don't fail as well if i do them... sucks.

dunno if i should take it easy and fail, or be very
stressed, irritated and annoyed all the time and have more
chances of... um... how do you say the opposite of "failure"
in english?

I bet the only person who does his work on time and sensibly
before it's due is Ceri JC.

kind of like The Hulk, then.

although I'm not entirely sure that's the cause of Bruce
Banner's (and your mother's) fantabulous transformation.

procrastination is like masturbation: it feels good for a
while until you realize youre only fucking yourself.
