Well it's the middle of trials and I am freaking out, but despite knowing this, I still tend to procrastinate for 3 hours+ a day =.=

So, question: How do YOU stop yourself from procrastinating?

I tried giving my passwords for MSN and Facebook to a friend and had them change the passwords so that I wouldn't be able to get on...
Too bad there's still so many other things like Youtube and Tetris to distract me...

[Note: if you are on this thread then you have failed =p]
F****, tetris will be my downfall in the trials, hahaha.

I try to embrace my procrastination, since I've tried every trick in the book to prevent it without success.

I wouldn't be procrastinating right now if english wasn't mandatory. I like subjects where everything is straight forward, if you don't know something then you look it up. ROAR

I procrastinate regularly.

I am finding that i just have to put away, the computer, guitar, non-school related books and do school work.

yeah I gave away myspace and facebook passwords.
kept msn but, good for asking for help for study.
as for procrastination, if like me you use a computer to study then you need incredible mental strength to not procrastinate.

do not play bloons.
worlds most addictive game.
just google it if you want it

Sometimes just look away and let your mind do the work. What I mean is, when i tell myself "i gotta study", i sit down for 10 minutes, then i lose concentration and do something else. Telling yourself "i gotta do this" can be good, but can also be ineffective. When i get into a good routine, its usually when i sit down without thinking "study", just for the purpose of reading over some notes. Before I know it, procrastination blues are over =)
