term papers...

So for the past quarter + last 2 summer sessions I've been waiting until the very end...and I MEAN VERY END to write my damn term papers...


I'm supposed to be writing one as we speak...
it's 2am and I barely started my intro. I still have 8 more pages to go, on top of reading the research I researched o_O

I don't know why I do this to myself...it's due in 11 hours...

at least I have a friend of mine who is in the same boat, I just hope she doesn't finish before I do...or I'll get sleeepy. She's the key to my sanity at this point. By the looks of it, however, she's probably going to finish before I even complete the intro...facebook will be the death of me.

I've never procrastinated so much in my entire life until I got to UCI............


SOS...or just kill me noww -_-;

at least you got it done though.. pretty much at the last second.

why does any college student do this to themselves? its too much all at once. not healthy..

You're tellin me...

Putting off a 25 page paper is NOT smart.
They call it a term paper for a reason. lol.
I thought I could pull it together last minute.
Seriously mistaken haha.

I once wrote a 10 page paper in 4 hours... and got an A-.
So ann... freakin i bet you knocked it out of the park.
8 pages in 11 hours? that's more than 1 hour per page =)

yea thinkin about it..

thats actually a lot of time for one page.

i usually get through a page for a research paper in about 20-30 minutes.

and most of the time afterwards are going back to my paper to edit and source the information.

but then again, i take my time for term papers and actually go through it throughout the semester

yea it went really slow. when I sit down to write a paper, it takes me a long time to get settled and focused. ...you'd think more than an hr for each page would be sufficient time...but reading and analyzing info sucks! ahh I'm so relieved that's over....never again [so I tell myself] but I think for me...there's no other way!
