The national sport of students and employees everywhere. "Mamaya na, 5 minutes pa." It's when you have a month to do a project and you start it the night before the deadline, powered by coffee and regret. The motto is "Due today, do today."
From `pag-` + `pa-` + reduplicated `liban` (absent, except). The repetition implies a continuous act of putting things off.
A very specific and common term for procrastination.
