I am a world-class procrastinator, and I really don't like it, but I can't seem to fix it either. I have a 12 page paper due in about 2 days, and I've just done the research for it. Well, and an outline...but that was only because I had to. I guess I've also technically got my bibliography done, but again, that was only because I had to. I'm learning that I work best with deadlines. "Have _____ (insert task) done by _______(insert deadline), or __________(insert terrible, grisly thing that's bound to happen if I fail)." That's my kind of motivation.
Now, I wish I could be more self-motivated. I'm not terrible, and there are a lot of things I'm willing to take initiative on, but my paper is not one of them. Case in point: I just started this blog in order to procrastinate a little more. And if I procrastinate just long enough...I can start making dinner as a means of procrastination.
Boo...not long enough. Better write the introduction.
Or, I could add pictures to facebook....
