Somehow I do better working on things at the last minute

Probobly becuase its easier to concentrate becuase if I work on somehting in advance I just kinda sloppily throws things together liek "oh i have weeks to get this done" and can't concentrate on it cuz its not a priority.

But now that its due in a few days, its a priority

Actually, 2 years ago in my English class, we had to pick someone on who we though was a great leader and why. Well, i thre my presentation together a day or two beforehand and totaly improved while giving my speech on it.
My teacher said it was one fo the best presenations shes seen

A few weeks ago I did a project for one of my hisotry classes the night before it was due, and once again got a similar comment

I pull this stuff off all the time, but only becuase I am good at it and it actualy helps me rather than hurts me

[jon m.]

So how did you do?

Jon.

Justin,

You might want to look at how the DDR was really run and not just what the Constution said and how the Volkeskammer was supposed to operate. As in most Communist countries of the time, the real power lay outside the legally consituted parliament. In the DDRs case in the Council of Minsters.

Regards,

Gordon

I did mention and emphasize in the project how the SED was the real source of power in the DDR. I just didnt go into it as in depth as how it was SUPPOSED to function.

As for what I got, dont know, I jsut turned it in and probobly wont be graded for a few more weeks
