Last Minute-ness

The only reason why I am blogging now, is because blogging is one of the many things which I feel like doing now, but not study. For the last few days, I haved played more games than I have played throughout the entire semester. Deep down inside I really know that I shouldn't, but somehow I just cannot bring myself to study. Although I must say that my progress is slowly improving. The only reason why my progress is improving is because I am left with less than 48 hours to my first paper, and am starting to feel a little worried. And I attribute all this to one personal characteristic of mine, my last minute-ness.

Since my primary school days, I have always been a very last minute person. Good or bad I don't know, although quite obviously its more bad. However as Reuben once told me before, sometimes its last minute work that produces the best work, and somehow or rather, I agree. Most, almost all, of my assignments, are usually last minute. No matter how early I start, it will all still pile up right at the end.

And its exactly the same for my examination studying. I had a total of 7 days to study. As I had found last semester's studying method quite good, I stuck to it. I started from the back few modules. I told myself I would complete my last 2 modules in 3 days. In the end, I took 6. I know this may sound like an excuse or just some baseless reasoning, but I really think that last minute-ness is in born, well in me at least. Yes, it can also be said to be a habit. But at least a habit has a chance of being kicked. Somehow or rather, this can't.

Happy Studying my friends!
