procrastination- how do you get over it?

Oompa_Loompa_2

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can stay awake?

Remember that although they contain caffeine, tea and coffee are also diuretics - if you get dehydrated you will find it more difficult to concentrate! You should drink plenty water to keep you well hydrated, if it's practical do this at work as well as when you are at home trying to study. Have tea/coffee as well, as the caffeine will help you stay awake, but do drink plenty water. I think the recommended amount (to stop you getting dehydrated) is 1 glass for every cup of tea/coffee you have.

That's a lot of liquid to get through!! :rotfl:

Hmmmm ok can probably top the lot of you lol. Got 4 assignments due in this week, total of 6000 words. 2 aren't so bad, but other 2 are hideous physiology modules, question being 'Demonstrate an understanding of.....' Know what I wanna say but god where to start.

Got 500 words on easy one so far..... :rolleyes:

What are you studying WYBMADIITY? The mention of physiology made me curious - I'm doing physiotherapy. :A

Sports Therapy Snow Angel, 1st year....5 day week, damn tough course!

WYBMADIITY - I'm in 3rd year and believe me it gets no easier!!! Do you have to do work placements? That's fun - full-time work 8-4.30, and studying part-time....oh and holding down a part-time job!

maybe that's why I don't procrastinate so much - forced inability to do it!!:D

In the 3rd year, tho we have to run an evenings clinic every week starting in a months time. And know what you mean by tough, on my own with 3 kids and have a long commute so it's not exactly easy!

Must admit I love it tho, just the writing I'm finding a bit tough cos haven't done it for so long. And the 'demonstrate an understanding....' questions leave me cold :eek:

just got back from the library, saturday nights dont get better than this.

almost done 1 assignment, got a fully functioning website and wrote about 1500 words. well pleased with myself. i thank this thread for motivating me.

in fact i just made a very strong cup of coffee and i'm going to keep going all night. cos im just that sort of a crazy devil.

its now after 4am and i not done a thing since getting back from library, i've spent the last half hour trying to find any truth in the rumour Hyacinth Bucket and Pat Butcher are real life lovers. My quest has been fruitless but i did find a Pat Butcher strip tease photo shoot.

anyway, the library is the way forward.

im glad you got a lot of work done Teaboy, i am hoping to get my whole assignment finished today have 1500 words done out of 2000 but i think that when i read over it, it wont make any sense.

i have also heard that rumour of Hyacinth and Pat, let me know if you find anything on it.

This thread is funny :T

p.s. I am the world's worst. I did (in)famously write an entire PhD chapter in one day once - 10,000 words in a 12 hour session

Well, due to my inability to do my assignment, i am also currently procrastinating... infact i think i've past that and now im procrastinating the whole procrastination process.. if that makes sense.

I have not heard any of this pat/hyacinth fiasco...interesting.
