Hmmm...a thread about procrastination that by its existence encourages more of the same.

You must be starved for entertainment up in Minnesota.

Why do we, a bunch of perfectly intelligent, aspiring youths, fail to bring out our full potential? It is a conscious choice we make everyday. We know that studying leads to good grades, yet we cannot tear ourselves away from the distractions! Why God, Why.......
There MUST be a way to triumph over procrastination.

Lol at the post above me

While I'm procrastinating, did anyone realize that we are not allowed to use contractions on the AP lang test? I am going to have to start making alterations.

I wouldn't so much as allow consideration of myself as a procrastinator in terms of school work pop up in my mind, however I am very ineffecient when it comes to taking the initiative to get up and contribute around the house and yard. I usually attempt to sidestep my non-curricular responsibilities on the home front whenever the opportunity presents itself.

I suppose I don't actually have much of an excuse really, if I had hypothetically come home to find a completely ransacked house and parental expectations regarding "pitching in", I could see myself laying down on the cold, hard, plane floor and thinking of whatever I could imagine, regardless of absurdity.

I didn't believe the seniors last year. But alas I've contracted it- the deadly disease- I have Senioritis. I was once a procrastinator and waited until the last minute to do my work. No longer. I just don't work anymore. My mind has turned to goo thanks to fb, collegehumor, tv, mlia and cc.

No known cure.

Assuming that comment wa directed towards me, see as it was below my post...
Not really, no charisma or enthusiasm, nor apathy either though.
