Yay for Procrastination!
Right now I'm choosing to go onto the forums right after school instead of working on an essay that's due tomorrow afternoon. I'll snap out of this idiocy in a couple hours, but until then, I'll just relax and have fun since I just got out of school. (Yes, that's my justification of it.  )
Anyways, have you ever procrastinated and paid for it big time in school before?
Or are you one of those people who can come up with brilliant work in about an hour's time sitting in front of the school computer?
Either way, Question number three, what do you think of procrastination?

I procrastinated an assignment one time for so long that I forgot about it and made my grade go from B to F. It was a huge assignment.

I don't think I've really procrastinated before. I mean, I'm sure I did at some point or another, but from what I remember back then, I always did my homework first. I'm one of those people that won't be satisfied with anything I do (whether it be hanging out with friends or watching a movie) if homework is on my mind. I just have to get it out of the way first before I have fun.

I was going to post in this thread earlier but I didn't get around to it. Ba-zing!
Yea, I'm a horrible procrastinator. I don't do anything on time. Half the time I don't even do anything... yet alone not getting around to it till late. The best case I can think of is my hair. I know that sounds odd... but I literally have to make plans to get a haircut right when it starts growing in... because I know I won't get around to it until I have a fullsized poofball up there that'd rival Mystrila's

I do it all the time, my last history project for instance, we had 3 weeks to do it - i waited till the last night and finished at 2am. All the while browsing on forums and talking to Edea and Lady Aerith.
i still got an A 
i've also left all my english coursework pieces till the last minute too. and i got As on all of them.
i think leaving it to the last minute puts me into pressure which makes the quality of my work better

Pretty much the last two years have been one big stint of procrastination.
I knew all along that not trying would give me nothing. Lo and behold, I failed all my exams. xD

However they're only GCSEs... hardly rocket science. Nothing to really pat yourself on the back for.
I only put things off if they're not important. Meaning I'd complete all school/college work on time, but neglect things like tidying up areas in the house other than my room. I neglect the cutting of my hair, but that's only because I'm afraid the final result will be shit. Despite the fact my hair looks shit now. xD

Procrastinators unite...tomorrow.
Lol, yeah… I always tried finding some excuse not to study or do my homework by either going out with my friends or watching something on TV. Anyway, I wound up doing what was needed, for the most part. However, as it usually goes, I never truly cared about high school, certainly not as much as college.

I try not to procrastinate. Gosh.....I use to put things off until the day before it was due. I stopped doing that for a while and finally started to do homework right after I got the assignment.
With large assignments I would try not to put it off. I've type up English papers with in two-three hours.
As for some homework such as math. I have two hours between my classes so I just do my homework then. It depends though, some teachers don't bother to even check homework nor they don't care about it.
