Am I Perfect Yet?

I'm still trying to come to terms with the fact that I am a complete and total perfectionist. It seems that if I do anything (except housework) I have to do it to 100%+ of my ability. I know this isn't a bad thing, but the fact that I'm a procrastinating perfectionist makes for some very interesting situations. Take my big graduation project for example. I have to turn in a big questionnaire/essay about how I think I've grown professionally over the last semester, and explain how all of the work I've done this semester makes me a great teacher. There is a template for this project and I just have to fill in the blanks with about a paragraph or two of writing. These are the facts:

• I recently found out that my professor will thumb through it just to see if I did it and give me an A.
• My good friend did hers in a day and it is 5 pages long.
• I still cannot, for the life of me, do this half-assed.
• I know mine will be close to the 20 page maximum.
• I know it will take me at least a weekend, but I just can't make myself do it now.

Why can't I just be a normal college student???? Why can't I ever do anything half-assed???? Why can't I just sit down in the next few hours and do it???? I guess because I have standards (very high ones) that just won't let me. If I've made it this far doing things just how they should be, there's no reason to slack off now. It'll be over in 2 weeks and then I won't have to worry about being perfect for another 2 months.

....Except for all those self-improvement plans I have for the summer....
