ProcrastinationOutlook is a wonderful tool, but not when it keeps reminding you that it is now 96 weeks since you were supposed to finish a report you haven't even started yet.
Just how lazy are you? How long will you put off the essential or the inevitable? What do you fill the time with?

I was ill during my second year of universitybut it wasn't something that I felt I could apply to be treated as personal mitigating circumstances. Because I worked stupid long hours aswell as studying full time, I generally went without sleep for most of the year. Consequently, I failed 4 of my 7 modules and had to re-take them over the summer.
So I collected the assignments on June 17th, for hand in on August 16th. When did I do them? Keeping in mind that this was my last chance to void having to repeat the year, did I learn from my previous mistake? No. No I didn't. I did 4 assignments over a three day period.
It all worked out okay in the end though. I figured that, since you can only get 40% on a reassessment anyway, to start earlier and work harder would be wasted effort.
