Unless you're someone who is always super on top of everything you do (and if you are I'm between super envious of your abilities and slightly concerned about your mental well-being at the same time), then you, like myself, have suffered through the emotional tribulation procrastinating can put you through. If you are a fellow procrastinator, then your internal thoughts may look a lot like this.
I have so much time, I’m going to watch one episode and start working.
Wow, that episode finished so fast
-looks at time-
Cool. I have time for another one.
Woah, 5 episodes went by so fast. I should probably start now so I’m not up all night.
-checks Facebook-
-checks Twitter-
-scrolls aimlessly through Instagram-
Now that I’ve had some time to relax, I can finally start.
-opens new Word document-
I’m hungry, I should make something to eat before I start. Can’t focus on an empty stomach.
I can’t eat and work at the same time, I can watch another episode while I eat.
-finishes season-
Uh oh. It’s getting pretty close to the deadline I better hustle.
I might have to pull an all-nighter, better make some coffee.
-chugs coffee-
I’ve written way more in less time, this should be easy.
This doesn’t seem so bad. This won’t take me too long.
Oh my god why is this taking so long.
- heart starts racing-
This isn’t even relevant to the class. Such a waste of time.
This is dumb. This is so dumb.
Why am I so dumb?
Why do you always do this to yourself?
This doesn’t even make any sense!
I’m not even going to proofread this.
I’M NOT GOING TO MAKE THE DEADLINE!
-makes deadline-
That was close.
Well, I’m not putting myself through that again.
More often than not, you are likely to put yourself through this, over, and over, and over again. So much so that you reach a point where you feel you "work better under pressure." To that I say, you do you boo boo. You do you.
