As a person who continuously leaves all of my assignments until the last possible minute and has been known to submit essays at 11:59pm on the due date, I know a thing or two about procrastination. Here is a list of some of the dumb things I did instead of writing my last set of assignments. I did indeed submit them in the end, but not until I had…Â
1. Cleaned my flat (many, many times).Â
2.Got drunk and went to a karaoke bar???Â
3.Watched a LOT of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Â
4.Looked at walls.Â
5.Planned my friends Halloween party for someone else.Â
6.Read books for fun and not the ones I should’ve read for my actual course.Â
7.Made my Christmas list. Â
8.Cried. Â
9. Annoyed my boyfriend on purpose.Â
10. Called my mum to tell her about every book I’ve read this entire year. Â
If you have any big assignments coming up, you too could be a top tier procrastinator like me if you use any of the ideas in this list. Disclaimer: this will lead to intense academic stress and at least 24 hours of self-hatred. Â
