Procrastination is something that I am acutely familiar with. Waiting till the last minute to submit assignments, application deadlines or even stuff as inane as cutting my nails (in which case its the stares from others that puts me to shame!!!)
This post took its time coming...and I write this today not because a gun's pointed at my head or someones promised to give me a million dollars if I am able to post this before midnight tonight! The reason is that I've reached the point of explosion (not size-wise..not just yet!) of thoughts. There are experiences, ideas, beliefs etc. that just need an outlet!
I also think 'work' happens to be a major factor. Life does take a completely new turn (for better or worse) when one starts to 'contribute' and finally earn some moolah!Once you get into that psuedo 9-5 working routine and start staying independently, you really do end up missing those long night BC sessions, b'day 'bash'es, or just simply walking over to the room next door for no particular reason at all! and all this results in accumaltion of stuff to share!
Coming back to the ingrained disease of procrastination, I am suddenly reminded of the various tasks that have always been delayed till the last moment, and I realise procrastination does have its positives!
After all...inventing short cuts, being a pro at pressing the panic button, quick thinking, and most of all the art of begging others to buy time (wherever possible)...all these do go a long way in shaping a persons 'all-round' personality!

Some quick observations.
Your first post has 11 sentences. And 11 exclamation marks. You have achieved an exclamation index of 1.00.
Here is how you compare with the population. (First column is exclamation index, second column is description of nature).
0.00-0.24 80-years old, been there done that
0.25-0.49 Full of wisdom, and yet not full of oneself. Been there done that, but willing to embrace newness
0.50-0.99 Jack-in-the-box, enthu-cutlet, 4-year old off to school for the first time, 4-month old puppy just learning a lot of new things.
1.00 Bloody fresher
PS - Welcome!
ha ha....bugger!
1. The post contains more than 11 sentences (and perhaps more than 11 exclamations)
2. Considering your 'exclamation index', you are currently in the 80-years old 'been there done that' category.
PS. Thanks! :)
the nail cutting reminds me of the term breaks when you prepared yourself for a safe entry at your home.... kyun "biba beta"? :D
