I think my worst habit is procrastination. I am a master at finding other crap to do when I know I need to get school work done. I magically find a way to procrastinate on almost everything, rarely do I get something done ahead of time. I clean stuff, waste time on the computer, watch TV. I've been wasting time recently actually building a model boat from scrap with a working battery powered propeller made from an old pencil sharpener, so yeah, I find stuff to do. And the worst thing is that I feel SO guilty when I know I'm procrastinating, I need to be studying for a Cellular Biology Lab Test tomorrow but here I am, procrastinating, writing about procrastinating, feeling guilty. AHHHH The way I make myself do the work, is I can't allow myself to not do my work, I set aside enough time to get it done, just not ahead of time. I feel like I work best with a close deadline. I can get stuff done if it needs to be done soon.
