Procrastination

I sit here hours before class writing this post. Erasing idea after idea of what to write about. Mentally kicking myself for waiting until the due date to start writing. Starting something only to get preoccupied with other things on the trap that is the internet. I knew yesterday that I needed to start, but here I am. Trying to string together sentences that may sound halfway intelligent. Reading and rereading the small amount of words on the screen. 

This is a dilemma I frequently find myself in. I feel I have above-average intelligence, but I can't seem to grasp the concept completing things in a timely matter. There are the odd assignments I finish days before I need to, however. I am a stubborn person and I'm not one to except much less than perfection. So, I'm not the most pleasant person to be around when I have projects that must be finished. 

I obviously am well aware of my problem, yet I do little to correct it. "Is there really a need?" I'll ask myself. Of course I have a good point. I don't remember the last time I've had a late paper and I've had great grades my whole academic career.  I get so stressed, though. So I believe in the long run it is worth it. From this day forward I will work on my problem with procrastination. So I'll start my pre-calculus homework due tomorrow evening. Or maybe I'll search for ways to temporarily dye my hair.
