HELL YES!
Because I am a great student, I leave everything until the last minute. Never have I had such a great example until now.
Every quarter, we are assigned to read a book for my AP Brit Lit class. Well, it's a book of our choice, but it has to be approved by the teacher under a certain set of criteria, etc. etc. In the past, I've read "Grendel" by John Gardner and "The Good Earth" by Pearl S. Buck.
But third quarter is third quarter, which means it's just...chock full of crap. Also, it was the start of my semester of AP Government, which is, in itself, a handful [despite the teacher going 'THIS ISN'T A LOT OF WORK BLAH BLAH']. So I shirked off all book report duties.
For weeks.
And then, last week, it was announced that the papers were due Friday, March 7th. ...And I continued to shirk off my duties.
But from the start, I knew I wasn't really going to read a book, and that I was really gong to SparkNote some short read [since we're allowed one short book], write a mediocre paper, and get a 26/30 on it. Sounds like a plan!
But what's really fun is freaking people out the way I did. For instance, today in multimedia...
Katana: Yeah, we have those book report essays due tomorrow.
Andrew: Really? So what are you reading?
Katana: I dunno. I haven't picked out a book yet.
Andrew: WHAT?!
Katana: Yeap!
And that's what happened. At 7:50pm, I chose the book I was going to "read" - "Animal Farm" by George Orwell [of "1984" fame]. At 8:40pm, I started to write my paper, got blessed with some magic, and ended up writing my longest paper ever for this class. XD;
Remember kids! I am the best damn role model ever! >3 *whacked brick'd shot*
