I am such a horrible procrastinator. I have a project that's due today (it's actually due tonight at midnight) that I should have been working on for the last few weeks, but I haven't really even started. I am not going to get it done now, because I have a little over 2 hours. I don't think the professor will accept it late.
I was up late last night doing homework for another class (after having procrastinated until about 3 am). I attended my first class and turned in my homework and cut my next 2 classes (I never missed a single class before last semester) so I could work on my project, but I just ended up sleeping during that time. Then I got up and I was going to work on the project, but I just kept procrastinating and procrastinating, going on this message board, playing games, etc., until it was too late.
The really bad part is that this was an individual project, but it is supposed to be used as the basis for a group project later in the semester, so now I have let my team down too and I'm going to have to tell them and they'll hate me. They didn't even want me in their group but they only had 3 people and I didn't have a group, so the professor assigned me to work with them.
I hate this because I have no self-control! It seems so easy to everyone else, just "buckle down" and do it! Just don't be lazy! But I feel powerless over my own actions! I don't understand why I can't make myself do what I know I should be doing. I am throwing my life away and I can't stop.
