When you get an assignment for either work or school...how do you come about it? What kind of worker are you?
The Hard Worker
Do you get to work right away and start research?
The Planner
Do you carefully plan it out step by step?
The Half-Asser The 'Anything is Good Enough' Worker
Do you just put something you consider decent together and leave it at that for a few days/weeks? ...Months?
The Average Joe
Are you a person who works bit by bit but never really hard? And comes up with something 'okay'?
The Procrastinator
Or do you simply throw something together last minute?

I'm a procrastinator. Everything is done the night before when it comes to me. And I'm still an A student =P

A bit of planner and procrastinator. Mostly, I plan out what needs to be done, and then I don't do anything until I have to. XD

I never plan or anything until the night before...I might think about it once or twice...but I assure you...I won't be doing my Algebra and History HW until tomorrow night at about 10 PM XD

I'm a bigger procrastinator. I finish my work in the next day in class =P
If it's a big assignment/project, I'll work on it a little earlier and put it off for later.

Kinda an oxymoron, but I'm a hard worker and procrastinator at the same time. But everything goes most according to plan because I'm also a planner.
congrats jhaxe :p

Congrats on your 700th :cool:
I had this big history project and 2 weeks to finish. I wait until the last two days to finish it. I stayed up untill my alarm rang (which was 5:50 A.M.). I was so cranky the next day :x

heh, guess you could call it that. i usually don't do stuff consistently throughout the semester. when i did give an eort to try doing so, my work usually turned out mediocre. i work better under pressure i guess...

I might start planning & thinking right away about it, making a schedual that would be really good etc.
But i tend to lose interest and then bend my own plan again and again till i eventually have to do most of it just before the deadline ^^'
Was the same way when I should Write something of my own interest in english etc. at School.
I start making plans for a big story, by usually making an interesting start, then ones i've reached a point I get bored. Leading to: I make a very rushed ending that usually keept me just around minimum accepted page count

I'm a mix between the hard worker, the planner and the average Joe. I'm also the idiot that borrows research library books 2 months early. :D
I admit that sometimes when I stare too long at an essay, I tend to edit it out of recognition. And get average grades.
However I can never do essays the night before, I'll probably fall apart and cry or something. :o

I'm a combo of these since I never try really hard but always seem to get really good grades and every assignment is done the night before it's due or i just won't do it :p:

I think i am the hard worker and planner. I just can't leave assignments undone otherwise i just get anoyed with myself and just want it out of the way. If everyones done and dusted out of the way then theres no need to worry about it. Then i can get on with other things that have a higher interest factor. Unless its not due in for a while i'll plan when to do it so proscinate til a reasonable time.
I never have to work, so my answer is....:rotflmao
I'm the planner. I plan out everything I'll have to do and take steps to get there:D i'm not a hard worker though:eek::cool:

@spacey: HAHA ohhh that's kinda bad isn't it? You wait till the last second and only end up with something average? I don't think you're giving yourself enough credit. XD
@rain: you lazy ass. :p

Hah, I trained myself not to be a procrastinator since highschool and I guess it had a good effect since I chose a course not intended for lazy people.
My sched's hectic so I do my job/assignment soon enough so that I'll have many time to sleep and watch anime :) For assignments or projects that require some brainstorming, I plan it out but make sure it don't take that long. Needless to say, I hate stocking up my works. (-_-)
Hard worker who needs to learn how to relax ... as I've been told many times before ^^;
Sometimes I really really want to slack, but I always just end up finishing whatever it is I needed to do. I'd rather have everything done right away, then I can play without any worries. I never plan out anything, since it almost always don't go according to planned.

I'm an absolute procrastinator haha. I always say I'll do it earlier next time but no, I enjoy myself too much to start on the work early.:p

So many people who incline to be procrastinators coming here ?
Personally , I begin disliking procrastinators , especially my friends doing something procrastinated . I am one of them in the past , but I've realized it's bad . Now , I am trying to plan something out after I make a goal I want to carry out , and then get to work step by step . Maybe saying is easier than doing . But after I found I could get something succeeded , and it resulted in compliments about yourself or what you did , especially from those who thinking you are incapable of this or a loser . I think the way works in deed . If what a procrastinator do would be efficient and be successful , maybe I will consider it . In my opinion , what procrastinators do can be successful , but will not be efficient , in particular when someone starts to be impatient waiting for your outcome as urgent . Nowadays , efficiency featuring in the whole world .

When it comes to academics especially in research, I'm a procrastinator. When it comes to work that I love, I'm a hard worker.

well duh, but what you've got to realize is that most people here are at some stage in school. Babbo's had professors (ie people with their Phds) talk about how they procrastinated even when they were in college (kinda annoying when consider how strict some of them are, babbo's got one proffessor who closes the door at the beginning of class, if you're even a fraction of a second late you're he tells you to just leave >,>). It's just pretty typical in a school environment, most people grow out of it to some degree >,>
