The Procrastinator's club
The Procrastinator's Club Procrastination is the deferment or avoidance of an action or task which requires completion by focusing on some other action or task. For the person procrastinating this may result in stress, a sense of guilt, the loss of productivity, the creation of crisis, and the chagrin of others for not fulfilling one's responsibilities or commitments. While it is normal for individuals to procrastinate to some degree, it becomes a problem when it impedes normal functioning. Chronic procrastination may be a sign of an underlying psychological or physiological disorder. The word itself comes from the Latin word procrastinatus: pro- (forward) and crastinus (of tomorrow). The term's first known appearance was in the 17th century, during a sermon by a Reverend Anthoney Walker on procrastination. The sermon reflected procrastination's connection at the time to task avoidance or delay, volition or will, and sin. From Wikipedia.com The Creed 1. I believe that if anything is worth doing, it would have been done already. 2. I shall never move quickly, except to avoid more work or find excuses. 3. I will never rush into a job without a lifetime of consideration. 4. I shall meet all of my deadlines directly in proportion to the amount of bodily injury I could expect to receive from missing them. 5. I firmly believe that tomorrow holds the possibility for new technologies, astounding discoveries, and a reprieve from my obligations. 6. I truly believe that all deadlines are unreasonable regardless of the amount of time given. 7. I shall never forget that the probability of a miracle, though infinitesmally small, is not exactly zero. 8. If at first I don't succeed, there is always next year. 9. I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I decide to change my mind. 10. I shall always begin, start, initiate, take the first step, and/or write the first word, when I get around to it. 11. I obey the law of inverse excuses which demands that the greater the task to be done, the more insignificant the work that must be done prior to beginning the greater task. 12. I know that the work cycle is not plan/start/finish, but is wait/plan/plan. 13. I will never put off until tomorrow, what I can forget about forever. 14. I will become a member of the ancient Order of Two-Headed Turtles (the Procrastinator's Society) if they ever get it organized. Well, I've been putting this off for a while now (:P), but I think we need a place to discuss how much we procrastinate. Like I myself procrastinate from school work and even sleeping ... mostly due to PC. So come here and talk about it. We could discuss how, when and why we procrastinate ... or we could put it off till tomorrow.

Joined! You know I was destined for this club! XD So then, what should we discuss? Methods? XD
|
Because I don't want to do my homework, guess I'm better off joining this club.
8D |
Good, I guess the professionals of the practise are here XD Damn, the only reason I'm on PC right now is because I'm pretending to do homework that requires the internet XD
|
..With all teh time I spend in MCG..Im suprised I wasnt first to join Oh well, so yeah Im joining, because I ish really lazy XD
<3 Nica--... |
Welcome!
Prime method of choice: The computer! which allows me to participate in ...
|
Spriting
Watching anime Reading manga Watching movies Listening to music General browsing of the net Refresshing the DCC page ^^;; Shut up XDDDDDDDD |
I'm a Master of Procrastination. *giggle-laugh*
I should get off the computer and do something buuuuuut... |
... you can't be bothered?
... you keep on putting it off? I think we all know that feeling. |
Quote:
|
I ish teh Queen of lazy..teh rest of yous are prolly just kings..since Im too lazy to bother asking everyone whether they would be teh kings or not.
<3 Nica--Ish too lazy to post anywhere else |
Hmmm... you know, this could really turn out to be very, VERY popular thread... but then again, some people might not be bothered XDDDDDDDD
|
I would think it would be popular but Im too lazy to stop thinking about teh Vegimite to think about this thread. But I ish too lazy to get off here though Im meant to.
<3 Nica--Still likes her vegimite |
Hmmm, well I think the thought of having an active thread about procastination is the ultimate paradox.
Oh, and I've read an Archie comic about them starting a procastination club ^^ It'd be cool if I could scan it up. And wat is the deal with that "<3 Nico" thing of yours simpsonqueen? Anywho, I've just started school again, and I hoped that I would focus more on work ... I guess not :P |
I'd have to assume Nica to be her name, or at least a nickname.
|
hahaha, guess I couldn't tell if it was an a.
Wellz, is there anyother ways besides that people like to procrastinate other than staying on the computer and ... thinking about vegimite ... ??? |
I sometimes read or play DS instead of working.
Sometimes. |
hehe, I wanna get a DS. But that would require me actually getting ready to go to the shops, getting the money to purchase one and so on.
|
XD, Yeah I only type Nica because Im too lazy to type my username, IOW Its my nickname. I would play Nintendo DS But it takes too much effort to get it out of teh bottom of my heavy school bag.
<3 Nica--Yeah it's an a, not an o XDD |
Oh heavy school bags! Mine's heavy as well, cause in my opinion it takes too much time to go to my locker and store my books there ... I'd rather spend it eating and talking.
That and I've forgotten my combination :P |
If we even had locker I'd probably do teh same, But I guess my teachers belong in this club because they are too lazy to get some lockers for us..
<3 Nica--Damn lazy teachers, like me |
Is it up to the teacher's to provide lockers? I thought it was up to the school itself.
|
..Teachers, school same thing, both are in teh same place, it seemed more tireing to explain teh whole thing so I left it at teachers.
<3 Nica--Have nothing extra to add on, or ish too lazy to at this moment |
Well how do you procrastinate, since you are the supposed queen of it :P
|
*Shakes head* Not supposed, definate. I procrastinate by shortening them to em', Only doing half of my homework but I be good and get full marks, Instead of do teh dishes I stay in teh toilet(One of teh famed ways of procrastinating dishes), Many other ways but too lazy to think of them ATM.
<3 Nica--I only go to teh toilet because every where else is too far to walk |
hahaha, I usually just stow away in my room, letting my mother continuously call out for me.
But the thing is, I think that you are getting laziness mixed up with procrastination. |
Well I mean procrastinate but typing that over and over tires me out so I don't change it to procrastinate until Im ready, which isnt going to be in teh next year teh way Im going.
My room is too far to get to so I take a shortcut and hit for teh toilet. <3 Nica--..yeah..yeah..(I'll put capitals later) |
could I join? I recieved a big mythology project 2 weeks ago and I just started and finished it today! (The due date is tomorrow by the way >_>)
|
I would've posted in here sooner, but I was procrastinating.
|
Yeah, sure you can. I always put off assignments. Once, I did it all on the last night, and got top of the class XD
hehehe good work paul. |
I wasnt going to go on here for a while but I needed to put off staying outside with teh family..So yeah my perfect hideaway on a sunny day..And I dont need to do any homework..though I have some but due in ages..
<3 Nica--Almost spelt something wrong |
heh, I should be doing homework now ... cept I'm watching anime :P
|
Quote:
|
hehehe don't we all procrastinate on PC?
|
My homework is to actually look for old home work..Pretty easy assignment if teh homework is only a my document away...But Im not doing it yets..
<3 Nica--My homework is tireringly funny (Ish that spelt right)..If it's spelt wrong I'll fix it next week |
I want to join. XD
Well..I procrastinate on studying since I do it last minute while going on the computer. XD Then I procrastinate on writing stories that I knew I should have done a week ago. |
Welcome Katsu.
heheh study? I procastinate so much, I barely even do that. Like for example I had my exams a month ago. In total, I probably studied for about 4 hours - 3 of which were in the half hour before the exam :P |
..I'm still procrastinating something from many moths ago..Though I dont think I'll get around to it..I also like to procrastinate doing my jobs at school (Specially since Im a class leader thingy). But yeah..school is my favourite way lately to procrastinate..
<3 Nica--Im getting sick of typing procrastinate, I'll come up with something else instead later... |
May join? I'm a really good procrastinator :) In 5th grade, I had a 10 page newspaper to do on the events that happened during the Great Depression and the 20's, and I did it ALL the NIGHT before it was due. I ended up getting a 105 :)
|
Hey, a procrastinating club!
I'll join later ;3 Hello all you fellow procrastinators! It's nice to meet those of you I've never met before =3 That would mean... 99% of you xD |
...They have a club now!?
That's crazy. But I'm so in. XD |
hmm, I am putting off learning Japanese.. I'll get to it... eventually....
|
Today Im planning to procrastinate doing any work, My plan is go into class and get paper and draw a picture all lesson, I dont feel like doing any work in class today XD
<3 Nica--Gunna get out of school work |
I need to join this club, I procastinate for everything, my homework, chores, everything!
|
ZOMG, sign me up please!
DIDJA know, I'd be making straight A's if I didn't procrastinate? But no, I have an A, B and C average. =D |
I just found this club. Ironically, I've spent the last few days procrasinating. Hopefully it won't hurt my marks, but blame it on the teachers they've gotta give out sich difficult projects. *groan*
In simpler terms, may I join please? |
Right now am procrastinatin on Studying for Drivers Ed test tomorrow. *Shakes fist* And I took a nap instead of doing Spanish homework, but I finished it. XD
|
Well welcome fellow procrastinators. May we all share our apatheticness to life XD.
Also, you don't really need to ask to join hehehe, but it's nice of y'all anyway. But I was wondering if I should add Chuchino ... I'll add her anyway :) Anywho, since it's friday, I'll be procrastinating all night. I only just got Cowboy Bebop offf my mate, and for some reason I have this strange urge to read Love Hina :P Quote:
I still didn't clean my room all that throughly though, and in the end, I got my internet back ^_^ Quote:
|
I procrastanted sucessfully today, I didn't do all my work and I got a well little award thingy..But it's a good thing teh teacher DOESNT procrastinate giving us awards.
<3 Nica--Did her work halfully |
hehehe I remember when the teacher's used to give them out. There was this whole system, but I think my grade was the only one who even cared or understood it :P
Anywho, I've been thinking of making a nice, simple little banner to show what we're on about. You might like the lil joke that's in it, I dunno. But I'll get around to it .... evenetually :P |
XD, At least it works..no work=award..Great school wev'e got.
Is that image vultures procrastnating eating their prey XD?(That's doesn't make sence if they are hungry) Oh..talking about banners..I made a request place in this other forum like agt teh start of teh year and I still havent done it...XD..I'll probably end up doing it in well time XD <3 Nica--No workie means rewardie^^!! |
I dunno what the picture is, I just thought it'd be interesting to watch, like just lying down on a hill and watching the sky.
i wish I could do no work and get a reward ... |
Oh yeah..as Im watching that pic Im procrastinating posting..Oh no XDD
Well I seem to be a good person so everyone likes me and gives me stuff even when Im naughty..so Im getting out of work and getting rewards at teh same time..you'd think it would be a bad example to do that but meh.. <3 Nica--..Teachers XD |
heheh, we had to ask to get an award.
So, as you could probably guess, everyone just stopped bothering. |
Yeah..bothering with what, this thread or life? XD..
<3 Nica--Im procrastinating thinking at teh moment |
hahaha chances are, at both :P Oh wellz, people will post when they feel like it.
Yeh same. I was planning to watch Cowboy Bebop tonight ... hehehe i never got around to it. |
I might ask you about what you wanted to watch tomoz(Since I don't know what it is) when I feel like it..
Maybe they are too busy not doing anything to make teh effort to post about not doing things XD <3 Nica--XD |
Cowboy Bebop is an anime. I've seen the movie, which was awesome, and so now I wanna watch the series.
So I'll probably be watching it tomorrow as well, considering that it's about 40 mins away for me :P But I've also got to do homework :( |
I would look it up on youtube..but..yeah..I think I'll leave my hatin' towards it to another thread....Besides at teh exact moment Im procrastinating putting some stuff on my finger because an ant bit it(Maybe it's something I shouldnt procrastinate)
And you dont have to do homework..only do teh half way..(I would swear but I'll swear later...) <3 Nica--..Yeah..no hatin' here.... |
I know the full plot of Cowboy Bebop =D I've never actually seen the anime, but I've heard full episodes when my brother watches it =DDD
Welcome to everyone who joined! How do you like my fashionably late greeting? xDDD Fashionably late is a procrastinators best friend, believe me. Today I accidentally put off doing my homework and fell asleep petting my cat, instead. And then I woke up in time for lunch xD |
I've spent a morning doing random things while a science project is due on Monday and I haven't even started it. -.-
|
Ill join! I havnt done my math homework that was due the other um...week lol
|
OMG WINRY.
*cough* Welcome to the club, Teresa!!! ^^ I guess all of us put off homework =O |
Yep, Winry! ^^ I love my theme!
Yes... *looks at homework* ...its mocking me... |
Welcome, new procrastinators! I'm just procastinating the development of my LJ, it's gonna take me AGES so I don't wanna start when I have only 1 and a half hours left online....
|
Welcome to Teresa and I guess a proper welcome to Chuchino as well (I wasn't really sure if you had joined :P)
Anywho, I'm currently reading Death Note, which I put off for about a week now. Also, I have some homework to do over the weekend. Should I do it though, cause next week I have work placement. But then again, I'm gonna have to catch up on everything I missed out from then, and so I'm gonna have to catch up on that. |
I left my MSN and everything off appear offline all night, so I could keep a check on who signs on..but Im gunna see how long I can procrastinate signing out XD
<3 Nica--XD |
I usually never sign out. I prefer to lurk in "Appear Offline" status, and wait for someone to come online.
Heck, I don't even have to sign in anymore though, cause I can still send and receive messages while offline (but I still sign in though). hehehe, now I feel like an advertising tool of Microsoft. |
Teh best way is automatic sign in, as soon as you log into teh computer it signs in. Though Im procrastinating making teh effort to sign in myself but..I guess I wont ever make teh effort XD
<3 Nica--Automatic sign in.. |
hehehe thats just being lazy :P
|
Ah..But it isnt lazy because if you wait..I will sign in myself all in well time..With me when I porcrastinate..you have to wait XD
<3 Nica--..XD I think |

So I took the Drivers Ed test today and I studied for an hour [XD] and the terms I studied WERE NOT in the test. >.< Grr it was like reading word problems. Anyways..I'm procrasinating on.. Graphics Drawings Satoshi Shrine Fanfic Original Story |
I don't think that you'd know what a learner's liscence is since I'm from Australia.
bummer about the test though. |
Ah..
Well yeah, but I still get my Pink slip since I have a high grade in that class. ^^ |
I just got around to looking up a website..now I saw it..it isnt that good...I should have continued procrastinating XDz
<3 Nica--XD |
XD I was in a banner mood and I made a banner for this club.
http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/3339/procrastinationqr0.png In Picture: Manga Ash from Dengeki Pikachu Manga |
hehehe that looks pretty good.
We'll use that (if you like), as well as the one I am currently working on - I just need to animate it. |
It looks cute, as I said in AIM
I might want to try to make a banner too...but I need to get to doing it..Some night maybe XD <3 Nica--Okay..My posts are confusing to me |
By all means link/post it to the first post. XD
Go Laziness. XD Anyone can use it~ |
I've already done it, thank you :D
|
You're welcome~ ^^
Woot. Now me ish procrastinating on Eating food and watching Episode 5 of Gankutsuou |
Oh yeah, wats Gankutsuou?
hehehe, I've put off eating for the past 3 hours now, and I'm pretty hungry. I think I'll just give up. |
It's an Anime that's addicting. XD It's also called: "The Count of Monte Cristo"
|
I made a banner..Well I was procrastinating trying to make it since teh acutal banner only took 5 minutes and I was doing nothing for a while to procrastinate from doing something XD
So teh banner XD: http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k112/KawaiiQueen/Tehprocrastinatorsclub.png <3 Nica--Teh banner turned out kinda wrongish but meh.. |
hahaha snorlax looks mad!
And is that the Disney logo font? Well I'll add that too, thank you! :D ... Damn, my cheap little animation won't even compare when you see it. |
Nice banners!
I seriously need to pay the phone bill, my mom makes me pay it over the phone but I procrastinate until the last day, apparently today is the last day. |
hahaha well then why don't you get pre paid credit then, that way, you won't get any nasty bills.
But then again, you may end up not botherring to even recharge (like myself). |
Well, this is the regular home phone bill so...yeah.
I have 38 minutes to pay the bill, that means I have 37 minutes of not paying the bill! |

i study like a day before my exams.
