i was the same way through high school

good luck rob ((sending u some motivation vibes))
tonite im in a similar case ....talked to much on the fone with friends .....and it's taking ages to do some researches for my english essay.....it could be done in a restricted amount of time but tonite im in a lazy mood.....(glad it's only tonite though) but .....i need to motivate myself i have to write this essay .....the class is tomorrow.....and gotta finish to write one of the big ones tomorrow.......
drink some coffee smoke a cigarette and here u go.....(that's what imma do now actually )
just like i told you in the last PM i sent you, promise yourself some sort of reward.
you'll be more motivated to get your shit done because you'll be working towards that reward! you just have to make sure your will power is strong enough so that you won't cave in and cut yourself breaks in order to get the reward sooner.
or... go buy one of the new 12oz Red Bulls. worked great for me last night.

maybe try smoking up and then doing homework?

unfortunately it's really hard to deal with something like procrastination when it grabs hold of you on the very last day before the deadline. At that point, I usually just give into it until about midnight when sheer panic kicks in and I realize i'm fucked unless I start writing. After you cross this inevitable moment, you'll work nonstop at an amazing efficiency. You'll probably even have time to toke up in the sunrise hours just before class.

I don't believe that this works for everybody. You will end up tired the next day, and I just think it sucks. Some people work good under pressure, some.
Even if you do end up doing fuck all, that deadline will still be in the back of your mind. So even when you're not doing work, you're worrying. I'd rather get over with and waste time later, knowing that I'm finished, then waste time and worry about a deadline.
