Um. Nope. I'm a geek. I would come home from school and do my homework first thing so I would have the rest of the day guilt free. X| :P

I was pretty much the same in college too.

Yeah, and I'm usually a little early for everything.

...can you say anal? :rollin

(but yet, I can't always spell my name :P )

Oh I'm SO bad. I don't know how it is that I've managed to make it almost the whole way through a doctorate. I have ONE class with ONE big project, and when do I do it? The last two weeks of class. It's ridiculous.

I'm trying to change, but there just aren't that many class-type opportunities left at this point :P

Put me in the anal category. I do everything as early as possible. I can't relax knowing that I still have work to do. I would rather get it over with and enjoy any extra time stress-free.

In Illustration, everything is practically always last min :P Because of changes the teachers or clients might have, your forced to work right to the last min before handing it in for final approval. /wah

I have been getting better about my art and doing stuff a lil bit everyday instead of leaving it all the night before, but it still happens. :bawl

Actually I pulled 2 all-nighters in a row... the other night and last night.. soooo...as we speak Im running on fumes and bubblegum :emb
cuz I didnt have time to make dinner after my roomie ate my share of it T_T (Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!)

2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

I can't afford to put things off or do things early, because everything has to be done today or tomorrow :wink:

I'm more of a forget-about-it-until-the-last-second kind of girl. Horrible, just horrible. My Japanese projects last year were all nighters--now I know how manga artists feel (I did a short manga for both projects).

I've always still got time until the weekend before it's due. Then I say, "OH, CRAP!" But I've never gotten a bad grade . . . I have a feeling that this is a bad life lesson. :sweatdrop

I'm a horrible, horrible procrastinator. I'll even wait until the last few minutes if I think I can get it done in time.

I do things at the last minute all the time.

I started researching my fifteen page college paper seven days before it was due. I always do my taxes on the last day and start it around 10PM. I start packing for 8AM early morning plane trips around 10:30 PM. A couple times I began my Christmas shopping after Christmas was over. My mom received her Christmas present in the mail around January 5th. :(

These are a few examples. At least I'm never late for appointments. :D

I prefer to think of that quote 'the best inspiration is a last minute panic' :hitting: XD simply because I'm a procrastinator lol... a suffering procrastinator... ^^;; I always know I should do everything beforehand to avoid panicking and running around like a headless chicken... but... somehow I always just leave it till the last minute anyway XD
