Do you think I can plagiarize myself for a report?

This isn't really a homework question, well if it if it is considered to be oh well just help me out.

So I did a report for a book quite a while ago, now I'm doing a different report on it. But they both ask for a detailed explanation of the plot. Can I just copy and paste my stuff over there?(execpt for some spelling mistakes I found lol) I wrote the plot completely legit and everything, with some really good sentences. Also If I do it all over again I can't but help but repeat some of the stuff I already said.

if you were the one that wrote it no
if it was clearly someone else's work yes

You can't plagiarize you're own work, it's not possible because you own it.

if it is your work its not plagiarism

ive actually used one of my essays three times over the course of HS. :P

thw whole thing with plagiarism is that you take credit for someone elses work as your own.

If it's your own work, how is it plagiarism?

it's yours so you're not doing anything wrong.

Stealing ideas from one person is plagiarism. Stealing ideas from many people is research. Stealing your own ideas is totally fine.

actually from what I understand self plagiarizing is possible, but I have never bothered to look up the rules on it because it sounds retarded to me.

Don't worry, I do it all the time:)
