This is a question Procrastination

Outlook 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?

(We're too lazy to write something funny here. You do it.)

Dissertation
Nothing is more difficult when studying / writing a university thesis than sitting down at the computer and actually typing something. For more than 5 minutes at a time. Other things fill your head like whether you need another cup of tea, what yr girlfriend's up to, why your flatmates are at the pub and havent invited you, if another wank will help you concentrate.. It's hard basically.

So when, the day before it was due in, I noticed that I hadn't actually typed anything at all, it was sheer panic that forced me to sit at my computer for 36 hours straight, consuming 6 cans of red bull, roughly 20 cups of tea and numerous bags of crisps.

No first draft, no proof read.. straight in.

Still got a 2.1.
