For some topics, my thesis would change five times just while I'm brushing my teeth! Sometimes I would wonder if I started writing a paper even a year in advance, would I still be working on it till the last minute? When it is impossible to write a perfect essay, what do perfectionists do besides go insane? :P Well define “last minute” because even when I would start the essay two weeks in advance, I would still be changing it around and rushing to hand it in.

I can check off 1,2,4,5,7,8,9 and 10. Actually maybe the whole list applies to me except for #6, writing contraversial essays was what got me out of bed in the morning! If you want, you can direct your students to contact me and I will mould them into the fine lazy student I excelled at being. I must add though, my essays were quite well done for a mere Engineer. Nice blog.
