Procrastination... My Friend

I do not know if I am the only person who does this but procrastination is my best friend especially since I entered college. I find myself more and more waiting until the last minute to do things such as study for a test, complete an assignment, or just simply print off a paper. I know many people may think that, that is not the way to do things because the quality of your work will be subpar, but that is not the case with me. I tend to do better work when I do it during crunch time as I call it. I think that it pushes me to produce the best work possible so that I can get the grade that I truly want on that particular assignment. Although sometimes waiting to the last minute can be something that comes back and bites me in the behind especially if the project or assignment has multiple components or is very time consuming; it always seems to work out in my favor. I still think my work under pressure is better than anything I have had time to linger over because I am very indecisive and I tend to want to go back and change things. I end up doing three times the work because I have so much time to not like the finished project or add to what I think is an inadequate job to some already amazing work. All of this would seem to be a very large issue with me wanting to go into the education field, because things can not be done last minute when your dealing with children that depend on you on a daily basis. But I think well no I know that my habits will change once I enter the classroom because that is where I have wanted to be my entire life. When I can enrich a young mind I will fill complete even if I to use all the time in the world to get one task done.
