Procrastination

Procrastination is my friend. It fuels my creative desires and allows me to write better stuff. Some of my best papers have been done at the last minute. Some of my worst papers have taken two weeks to write. There I was working on it for two weeks only to get a "B" on it in the end. I think if I'm under pressure I work better and more furiously and thus more creatively. I'm not sure what DocHoc would say about this, but, hey, it works for me.

Unfortunately, I agree with you. That pressure does often aide in my writing, so I do find myself procastinating when it comes to writing-related projects. However, I don't like to procrastinate with web-based classes because you never know when the technology won't be working quite right. I have found myself procrastinating less in my master's program because I just can't stand the pressure of those last-minute deadlines.
