Oh, I also have an article draft due to the school newspaper tommorrow. I consider that to be the less important of the two electives; in newspaper, I have seniority and can thereby order the editor (a Junior) around. It's good stuff.

Too bad your ex-girlfriend wasn't a research paper and those two guys tag-teaming her in the rowboat weren't writing said research paper for you.

4 pages isn't a research paper. It's a damn hiccup is what it is. 4 pages should take you about 2-3 hours to write, TOPS.

Get crackin'

It's a research paper, because it involves doing research (on your own) and then writing a paper. It's no thesis, but it's still a research paper.

Researching what?


People from Neffer, Neffer Land?

It's a psych paper on brainwashing and/or propaganda.

The true ATOT way would be walking into class and attempting to Jedi Mind Trick your teacher into thinking that [hand motion] "there is no paper due today" [/hand motion].

Or just cut, like you plan on doing. Either one. :D

ROFL!! :D:laugh:

I have yet to start research. I think I may be, uh, sick tommorrow. Yeah, that's right.

Just do internet research & write it up tonight.

Yeah, High school papers are a joke, don't even try to convince me of the otherwise.

There, I did it. I didn't even do any research until I was looking for stuff to put on works cited :p

Speaking of procrastination ... in my freshman biology class, one of our quarter projects was to keep an "observation" journal of some living organism and write a paper at the end. We had to write 20 observations over the course of about 2 months, and the paper only had to be about 2-3 pages just summing up what we learned.

I bought a notebook before school the day it was due. I wrote out all 20 observations during my math class, and wrote the paper in an architectural design class. Turned it in on time (I think it was 4th period), and I wound up getting a B+ on it.

That being said ... good luck getting your work done on time!
