Procrastinate

I have heard of the word 'procrastinate' many times.

Especially when it comes to giving advice to students who are too lazy to be bothered to study.

"Study hard, never procrastinate...bla bla bla..."

I've had an idea that the word means something negative, but I've never known the actual meaning of the word.

Yes. I've never known what procrastinate means.

And we thought Rachel supposedly posses a good command of English...

Laugh, people. Laugh.

Out of curiosity, I looked up the word on an online dictionary.

Surprise, surprise.

'Procrastinate' has always seemed like a more suitable word to describe defiance, delinquency or rebelliousness.

Never knew it simply meant delaying.
