Welcome to the blog I have created for your Life Writing course. I hope you enjoy the postings you find here. In this blog, you will respond to prompts about course material, comment on others blog entries, and discuss the use of blogs and podcasts in education.
This is a bonus blog (1%) so you are free to respond or not. It's about procrastination, a topic you may have experienced first hand. Some of us are great procrastinators.
First I'd like you to go 43 Folders to check out the ZeFrank Show on procrastination. You may need Flash or Quicktime to see the video.
Secondly, respond to any part of the video with an example from your own experience and how it may have gotten you in trouble.
Thirdly, read someone else's response and comment on it, as you have been doing in your journals.

HI Joanne, Ive been trying to get ahold of you webctvista and sheridan accounts are down
Procrastination is my favorite skill, however in the end you feel real bad and really rushed. For instance this class usually has something due on the Sunday, however instead of getting it done through the week I put it off to work on my car. My car is in fine shape but it is my addiction and it's something I use to forget about all my assignments and upcoming tests. This fascination with my car has left me struggling at the last minute to complete an assignment or even study for that big mid-term exam. Another addiction of mine is spending time with my girlfriend. I mean who would rather be doing school work than spending time with their girlfriend? Procrastination is a bad habit to pick up however I don't think I will be trying to drop it anytime soon. This is because with procrastination I find it easier to stress myself for a few hours in a week than doing work right away and always keeping busy. I also have unintentional procrastination such as work. although work and my hobbies are not an excuse to put things off to the last minute, i doubt I'll change any time soon.
