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.)

I have to make life decisions based around my procastinatory tendencies
I used to do my homework in the car on the way to school, on the day it was due in. Any large projects would be shoddily produced at the very last minute.
So when it came to choosing a degree, I picked Maths because it wouldn't involve writing any essays.
I like to think I could have got into Oxbridge, but one of my teachers told me that the learning there is largely based around self-study and tutorials rather than lectures. I would have got fuck all done! So I didn't bother applying.
Instead I picked my university on the fact that they didn't make you do a final year project/dissertation. You could if you wanted, or you could just do some extra modules instead. Lovely.
I should really have done an MSc afterwards, but that would definitely have involved a dissertation. Naaaahh.
It all worked out OK though, I have a job where I can faff about on teh internets lots. Yay!
