Procrastinators....I belong to that group. Some of my highest moments in life come from waiting to the last minute to complete a project that I have dedicated myself for weeks or months. I start strong, then I give myself a break...till a few days before it needs to be completed. Yes, I know this is not the safest strategy, however it is one that works for me. Seeing me in turbo-mode is possibly a great idea for a reality TV show, if I were interested in such a pursuit. From the moment I get up to the moment I lie down, my life is chaotic, by my own choice. The only 'down-time' I have is once I get home and I chill on on the iPad. Even then, I am still busy. I am checking my 6 different e-mails, catching up with friends, reading the news, blogging, researching for my job or college, or shopping. This takes place until midnight-1 in the morning before I finally call it a night and give up. Admittedly, I love life like this. I love being a busy worker bee, because if I do ever stop for a minute, I easily forget anything and everything that needs to be done. My mind is never truly at rest where I am not thinking of something, it is impossible.
Most of my friends see me in one of two state of beings- extremely relaxed, leaning back in a chair talking, or rushing through with half a million things to do at the last minute. (All of which DO get completed on time. I might indeed be a poster child for Procrastinators, but I am the best at what I do when I opperate like this. So it works, praise the Lord!) Even in my 'chilled' mode, they know I have my week planned out on what needs to get done and that I'm only chilling for my sanity (or whatever is left of it....).
Currently, I am pushing off completing a paper for my English class that is due first thing Tuesday morning. It is halfway completed and my only problem is making sure that it is falling within the outline my instructor handed the class. I currently do not have Microsoft Office, so I am using the modified version that Outlook offers through my student e-mail. However, it takes out the formatting that I need to see the length when it is doublespaced, so that is being a hindrance right now to me asthetically on creating the paper......
Well, I have found a version that I can use temporarily while I work on it, so I had better sign off.
