It really depends for me. I'm a huge perfectionist for some things, but others I'll just do bare minimum and move on. :/ If I really like something, I'll put the effort into doing it to my greatest potential. But if something is boring or not my thing, I'll just sort of half-heartedly do it so I can move on to move important things.

The half-heartedness is on purpose sometimes, though. I may be lazy but I'm more of a perfectionist than not and sometimes I have to force myself to complete something quick and move on or else I get so absorbed in it that I run out of time to do other things. :s Be it assignments for school, a task at work, or something personal, I'm still trying to figure out exactly how to do that whole time-management thing.

Are you much of a perfectionist?
If its possible for me to perfect it i will perfect it, i like to be realistic with these things x]

Do you like things to be well organised, or do you just leave things anywhere?
I really want things to be in their place but my laziness often over powers my need to have things in a set place x] But usually every few weeks i'll get up and tidy the crap out of everything and have everything labled up and put where it belongs :D

Are you someone who likes to plan things or do you do everything spontaneously?

I don't like doing something if its not been planned, i like to prepare for things that are going to happen or that i'm going ot do.

It depends what it is but mostly I am a huge perfectionist. Especially if it involves the internet xD my room is slightly messy but I still keep it quite clean and I'm a perfectionist about that

It's on and off - depends on what it is.

Do you like things to be well organised, or do you just leave things anywhere?
In my room everything is everywhere. But if you looked at my old locker, or anything else, everything is perfectly organized by size, time needed, alphabet, etc.

Are you someone who likes to plan things or do you do everything spontaneously?
I like plans.
Keep being amazing.

Are you much of a perfectionist?: Somewhat.

Do you like things to be well organized, or do you just leave things anywhere?: Sometimes I'm organized, sometimes I make a mess.

Are you someone who likes to plan things or do you do everything spontaneously?:
Most of the time, I do things spontaneously because I don't have time to plan everything out.

It depends on what it is. I do dispise it when things aren't organised. Like if I go to an event and they're not ready yet it really bugs me, but on the other hand, my bedroom for instance is a mess. But I know where everything is so it's an organised mess. xD

when things go wrong
All these questions are so varied for me because it all depends on my mood. Although when it comes to keeping things organized I usually keep on it. I'm a really clean person and I like my space to be neat and tidy, but I'm not crazy about it to the point that it's never messy.

Between planning something or doing something spontaneously though it really depends. A lot of times I like the comfort of something being planned so I know what to expect, but if I'm in a good mood then I'm more likely to go for something spontaneous. I find this to be especially true when I'm with someone I'm comfortable with. Just having them around causes me not to worry at all and go about the day quite spontaneously.

Really it depends on what I'm doing. If I'm writing up a post (first thing that jumps into my head lol) then nah I don't really care about being overly articulate and all that since I think I can get my point over fairly well without proofreading and being overly good with words. But in art, for example, which is basically all I do in school now then YES ABSOLUTELY. Until I'm completely satisfied to the point where I, my own greatest critic, can't really pick massive fault with it, I won't consider it finished. This has been irritating at points because stuff can take much longer than it should or end up just being a mess once I've finished, er, 'perfecting' it.

As for the well organised etc part, yeah, I try to be as tidy as I possibly can. I hate being in a messy room since the mess is all I can think about, and I regularly clean up the dorm in school even though most of the stuff probably isn't actually mine to clean up in the first place. I don't have OCD or anything like that, I'm just ridiculously tidy sometimes.

The third part of your question, however, doesn't really fit in very well with the other two. Planning generally gets on my nerves because it just feels like waiting. I prefer to be spontaneous; it works better for me and suits my overall personality, too. I'll often organise meeting up with people at the very last minute or be invited to events at the very last minute and I can make huge changes to plans that do already exist very quickly to accommodate these sorts of things.

EVERYTHING MUST BE CLEAN

I need to have everything around me neat and tidy or I cannot function. If I feel like my order it being disturbed with too much clutter, I have to stop and fix it lol - I just like order, it makes everything so much easier. I don't know how people deal with mess to be honest, it's so off-putting. If I go to someone's house and it is messy, I feel the urge to clean it for them like I'm on one of those "Before and After" type shows...

And yeah I'm a planner, but sometimes spontaneity can be fun :)

I'm a lazy perfectionist. When I feel properly motivated I make sure everything is exactly how it should be. Like right now, my room and all my things are neat and tidy and everything is all nicely organized. I even went to the effort of adjust all the books on my bookshelf so the spines all stood out at the same spot so it would look neater.

I always feel the potential for being a perfectionist. What I mean is, I can see where I could improve something on most things I'm involved with, but I don't always act on that if I don't care enough.

Kind of. I don't really care about any other stuff being neat or whatever, unless it's mine. My rooms all neat and tidy, so yeah...

Well, I guess just a perfectionist about myself or well stuff. If that makes any sense at all.

Differs for me sometimes I don't really care and I'll leave things lying around, and other times I'll spend an hour or two organizing everything again. I've recently cleaned up my room, so I think I'll stick to a more organized arrangement now.

I like to keep my life organized and I can be a perfectonist. Though you wouldn't know I liked to be organized if you looked at my room... but even that's organized... it's just organized in my own special way xD
