I am most likely one of the world's worst procrastinators and it is the best and worst thing. I will put off any AND everything I can until the last possible second. This ranges from getting ready to go somewhere (and arriving late almost every time) to waiting until the night before to study for a test or write a five-page paper and having to pull an all-nighter. It doesn't help that I am totally addicted to and in a very serious relationship with Netflix and Hulu. I mean there are so many shows that they offer and so many of them are so good so how can I not continue to watch them every second of the day. Also, watching a show is much easier than doing homework am I right?

I remember one time my freshman year in one night I had to write a speech, make a presentation and type up a 5-7 page paper all in one night. I stayed up in the business center all night typing and writing away, chugging Redbull to stay awake. At around 3 a.m., I realized I was the only one in the entire business center and I thought to myself, "Maybe I should've started some of this earlier," but at that point it was too late. I proceeded to work away, every now and then the lights would turn off because they are motion activated so I would have to move around to get them back on. Around 5 a.m. the janitors finally show up and they are looking at me like 'why are you in this business center all by yourself with three cans of Redbull?' and again I found myself thinking, "Maybe I should've started some of this earlier," at least at this point I was finally on my last assignment. I pushed through and finished everything which is pretty impressive if you ask me, I wasn't even that tired the next day. I did pretty well on the assignments too so props to me.

Every time I procrastinate on an assignment and then do well on it, it only encourages me to continue to procrastinate because it must be working right? I do find that I work more efficiently under pressure and my brain can focus better because it has to. I get so distracted so easily that when I work with or around other people it is so difficult for me to get anything done. When I leave things to the last second, my brain does a slightly better job of shutting people and other distractions out. I have tried to be less of a procrastinator in the last couple years but it has only slightly improved. I mean I'm not that mad about it because I still haven't failed anything yet. So I suppose I should get started on my Crisis Communication assignment due tomorrow morning... eh, it can wait.

NETFLIX, HERE I COME!!!
