  #4  My thought on the talk: Inside the mind of a master procrastinator 1. Do you procrastinate sometimes? I think I'm a procrastinator, but not too  serious. When I have school homework, I usually do it  two days  before deadline. So I do it in a hurry, and it lead to bad result. 2. What are some of the things you procrastinate on? Many things, For example homework, presentation, or housework.  3. What are strategies you can use to combat procrastination? I think I can record what I need to do in my  calendar, in this way, maybe I can supervise myself.
                                                      Hi, this is Corina. I graduated from the department of finance of NTUB, and now, I still majored in finance of NTUB.   When I have free time, I like to hang out with my friends, or play guitar.    I think I'm a friendly person.   I have a part-time job. I teach children to play guitar. This is also my interest.    Thank you to visit my blog.
