and now, a guest post
by my stellar nephew, bobby. i guess sarcasm runs in the family. my book writing process has been deeply affirmed by this essay. really.
Bobby Gordon
Born in Raleigh, North Carolina, and
currently attending Northwood High, Bobby Gordon has spent most of his educational
career procrastinating on most every one of his assignments. Being mainly an honors
student, Gordon has had many academic tasks throughout which he has learned all
the ins and outs of being an efficient procrastinator, while still maintaining
a respectable grade. He is most
noted for his 10th grade English essay on “Things Fall Apart,” which
received an A and provoked suspicion of plagiarism while being completed in
less than two hours, the night before it was due. Truly, superb stuff.
The Tool of Procrastination
This essay has been assigned for five
days, yet I’m starting it less than twelve hours before it’s due.
To your run-of-the-mill, high
school bumpkin, this would be traumatic. However, we Procrastinauts thrive on
this stress-induced reservoir of creativity. Oh, by the way, we prefer the term
Procrastinaut. Meaning voyager, the suffix ‘-naut’ really allows the true art
of procrastinating to be shown. We trek into the valley of the unknown, with
the only truth being that our time is limited.
Yes, of course it would be ‘better’
to plan your work and divide it into equal portions across a sensible time
frame blah blah blah. Are you really
going to do that? Where is the passion? Where are your ambitions? Your true
persona? Not in that essay, I’ll tell you that much.
