Procrastination is a very creative process. You do the sort of things you would have never ever done at that time if you had not got such possibilities. Like blogging in English. Or even posting stupid comics on your FB account. To a certain extent, doing stupid things is normal, healthy and can even protect the well-being of your psyche.
If you are a very communicative person, people who are not as ambitious can be frightened or alienated by your actions. But no worries, as long as you do not forget your responsibilities and can – roughly said - lead a normal life... everything’s fine.
If you are in the position of having plenty of time, people will start wondering, why you waste your time in such a reckless manner. But if you still feel comfortable, go on and tell yourself: tout va bien.
If you have possibilities that you could have done in the time while you are procrastinating and then, later on, are not able to do the things that you could have done after having done your work, like going on holidays instead of buying useless things on the internet, you are simply a little bit retarded. I sometimes consider myself like that.
Let me explain it to you in another way: If I am in the physical and mental state to be able to write these words, why shouldn’t I be able to write my fucking term paper (sorry for the swearing, but it also is a kind of human value)?!
Maybe there is a connection between knowing that you can still do your work in half of the given time, if there is a strong pressure that arises from conditions such as: "There is no time for doing anything basic and humane like sleeping, eating or daily hygiene, because I need to finish my papers within the next week", for example. If you had enough time, you will be literally working your butt off or working your butt off, because you know that now, it is impossible to finish with a satisfying result in such a short period of time.
When you have come to this conclusion, i.e. that you have had enough time to do your work first, then doing something that could please you more than procrastination, but you have buggered it up completely and now have not even got the time to carry out your duties, then you are fucked. Because after you have come aware of this coherence, you tell yourself that it is too late. You continue to tidy up the attic or sort the stockings in your drawer and end up searching for the lost ones that you will not find any time in your life, but now you are strained wondering where you could possibly find them. The answer is: They are as lost as your wasted time. If you are a perfectionist, it's time for burnout or to think of a method topping yourself understatedly. If you are lucky, you can still laugh at your own stupidity.
