Does Everyone Else Procrastinate This Badly? Options

[Coomer]

I'm a horrible procrastinator. When it comes to work/school, I always wait until the very last minute to get stuff done.

At work, if they expect a software application in two weeks, I usually do whatever until a couple days before it's expected and then I start on it. Normally, I'd do it immediately, have it done in a day, and impress people, but lately, I've just been procrastinating.

Last week I started my quarter-long programming project at 2am, eight hours before it was due. I ended up getting a 100% grade on it, but it was stressful.

Today I've got four data mining projects/assignments due by 10pm, and I've yet to start on any of them. I also have a 6-10 page term paper for another class due at 3pm, and here it is, 11:18am, and I'm on 6GC, with an empty Word document where my paper should be.

And then tomorrow I have a 5 page paper due for another class, and I'm sure I won't start that until tomorrow morning.

I've also been putting off job hunting (I'm done with school in one week,) but my excuse for that is that I have to get the new 6GC online so it's impressive when I show it to future employers.

Does anyone else procrastinate this badly? Have any tips for getting over my procrastination habits? I need to get back into the habit of not procrastinating when I actually get a good job here shortly.
