Have you ever procrastinated on something? I'm sure most of you have. I seem to have a chronic problem with it and I don't like it. As an example, I'll use the 2 papers and book review I have to write this semester. I have these papers and I've had all semester to work on them. Thus far I have researched 1 paper, which I have too much stuff on according to the professor. The other paper and the book review are untouched. Now, I still have plenty of time but the problem is I know that. This first paper was to be due on October 25th but he pushed it back because he doesn't have any time to grade them plus we are a bit behind. I wish he would just cancel the paper but I know he won't. In any case, I have that one paper that I need to print journal articles for and that's it. THEN, I have a paper for my Russian history class. He gave us topic choices and we just have to pick one. Seems simple enough but I have yet to begin it. I'm thinking I'll start research this next week but ... I still want to do that paper for the first class I discussed. Lastly, I have the book review. I don't like reading books that do not interest me and the book doesn't look the least bit exciting. I'm concerned that I won't even want to read it and it'll make things difficult for me to handle. Not fun.

Oh, aside from all of that, I also have various other projects due for my ITC class. I don't remember the due dates I have so many now. I had a group project where we put a bulletin board together. That was good because in groups you're force motivated to do the job. Alas, my other stuff is solely for my work and she gives us these deadlines that are just way too much time to get it done. One thing we have to do is a "webquest" where you make a webpage that takes people through a "mission" of sorts and they learn stuff along the way. I can probably take that down in 1 day if not 2 but she gave us 1 1/2 months to do it. Then there is this other assignment in "Inspiration" and we are to make a web type thing. I could do it in about 5 minutes but she gave us 2 weeks. That kind of stuff drives me nuts because I can't just sit down and get it done with ... I need to wait until the last minute :-
I tell myself every semester to just do the work and get it done with. I could research and write a paper in 2 weeks tops. Do I? Of course not! It'd be too easy that way and I wouldn't be stressed about it. Do I thrive on stress? Maybe ... but I hate it just the same. Argh. I guess this is "normal" to some regard but I dislike it anyway. K? k.

Well that's it. Just wanted to vent. I should be doing something with Michelle tonight. Cya later!
