- its fucking annoying, I can write essay's on corsasport with absolute ease. I'll just keep writing and I'll have like 2500 words in 15 minutes! - but I've got so many projects + assignments for my final year at college, yet I just can't concentrate enough to do them
got 3 things in for 17th of decemeber.
1) Software Project, includes the whole planning, analysis, designing, implementation and testing of a software application...
so I had to do all the write up + make the good damn thing, and I've just been dossing in lessons having jokes + going down the pub with mates instead.
2) Got to have 2500 word essay, on Human Computer Interface - evaluating several different interfaces + systems. Haven't started this yet 
3) Got to design + produce a fully functioning website, with flash and javascripting - must include a rational about the site... done a basic layout for the site, and nothing else
Oh I'm so bloody screwed.
I always just put things off to the last minute - then suddenly go 'oh shit, must get this done' and hand it in and usually get a distinction? Yet I never expect to get one.

The 2500 can be done in a day. you just gotta put some time aside to do it..
The website wil take a little longer, but you just need to steal things from the net anyway
Good luck mate

Mate, i could type on here all day long........ thousands of words with great ease. Suppose its cos its a hobby or whatever....... something i enjoy doing.
However, i HATED english at school. I DONT read books, and have always hated essays. So why the fuck am i doing all this shit????
Oh, also got an essay due for Thursday (2500 words)...... as to which i dont even know the question.
Havent been to a tutorial for my subjects this year at all yet, and thats 10 weeks in or so!!! Pish anyway.
And i've made my mind up, i am not going to uni 2moro. Fuck it. If i miraculouslly get them done (which i wont), then i'll email them to my lecturers....... my car broke down........ bla bla bla
Got blootert on Friday night. Then thot, i'll do them on saturday night at the gf's. But i obviouslly got distracted!!! didnt even do one word!
Then went up a mountain today raising money for one of my mates who broke his leg at our fitba a few weeks back. Got paid off, has a young kid etc...... Oh, also got drunk during it and after it. Remained in the pub till the back of 6.

I'm more worried about numero uno to be honest ...
the latter 2 are just a couple of small assignments - the 1st one is a big one.

Aliba - always the way mate, I always think 'Oh, it doesn't matter if we scive this lesson now + go do something else, I'll do the work tonight' - then tonight comes and I do something else, then I go 'I'll do it tommorrow' - then don't... then go 'I'll do it on the weekend' - then end up being in the next lecture with 0 done.
The worst, is I can never be bothered to do things in the lesson half the time, so I sit listen to music, joke about with mates and surf CS. then shit myself that I've done no work.

Take now for example - I came on the Pc at about 9pm to do some work... I haven't done a single bit - and have kept going 'oh, I'll do some in a minute'
its now 1:52 and I want sleep  not good... usually the way things work... I'll end up working with no sleep to get things done.

I always find - providing I can fool myself into thinking I'm ok, with plenty of time and I've done quite a lot of work - I can relax.
i.e. having extra pages in word documents + big gaps between titles, paragraphs etc. using pictures ... just copying + pasting stuff off the net.
Ohh, I've done 8 pages. Relax.
Look closer and you see 3 pages are blank, 4 are just copy + pasted and 1 is only half a page.
but providing I don't panic its ok - if I panic, my mind goes blank.

lol gotta do a 20,000 word report by friday,
0 word count at the mo
and i've just finished a 12page report just now (supposed to have handed it in on friday) I'm just proofreading it now, and hand it in first thing tmrw.
I always leave shit to the last minute.
But the idea is not to sleep for about 3days, do work, sleep for a day, do work for another 3 days... etc.
well thats my masterplan for this 20k work report, and i'll start tmrw!
can't afford to mess about!

lol and there was me thinking
'I'll chose a computer degree to avoid doing essays!'
its a serious pisstake, all i do is doss about in uni, and chill at home.
can't get motivated, don't give a shit anymore.
I even write jokes and write sarcastic comments in my essays/assignments/reports.

LMFAO Paul.
I've tried that before
Usually just dive in at the deep end and start typing an essay from scratch. Stopping every 30 seconds to read bits out a book etc. Get well into it, feel confident and happy. Then click word count and i'm 800 words short!!!! Every remaining sentence is like a bloody story!!!
