Too much stress

[Pretender]

Got 2 7-10 page papers due by thursday, an exam on wednesday, i'm in the most boring comp sci class ever, english is next (i hate it even more), my site is probably down(could someone click on one of the links in my sig and see if it works), and NATA computer may or may not have charged thousands of dollars to my mom's debit card (see russ' thread). Great f!!ing day.

I have no advice, just wanted to say I sympathize and am sorry, Pretender! Hang in there.

I have advice for some - don't procrastinate. But you already knew that. I'm a severe "victim" of procrastination as well and I never seem to learn either Sucks doesn't it.

Pretender,

7-10 pages?! Two of them?! When were they assigned?! Ugh...my AP English teacher assigned me some BS paper to do in one night..and boy did that suck. You better get crackin! Remember..big words, long ass sentences, and a lot of BS, get you through High School paper.

/me looks at all my B+ essays and hugs my two A+ papers.

Yes, your links are down.

You'll survive......or not.

I'd send you some sympathy, but I'm on my second 80hr work week, so I don't have any to spare, sorry...

Can you double-space? What font can you use? Do you know how to BS? Beat a topic point to death before moving on, great way to make space. Try using large synonyms to create space too. Drink coffee or Jolt, whichever works, and get started.

I don't have any advice for you Pretender, but I wish you lots of luck!

You can play around with the margins a little bit as well. That should get ya a few less lines...

 

[Pretender]

I know most of the tricks: Increasing margin sizes by about 10%, not visible to the trained eye (and one of my teachers was a former hippie, so I doubt his eyesight is good), doublespacing is allowed, so I'll be increasing to 2.20 spacing (if you want to know how, go to the Paragraphs option like you would normally double space, but instead of choosing Double, choose multiple, and put in 2.2), other fonts, etc, but it's still quite a bit of work. And being addicted to these forums doesn't help. People in my school (or maybe all students everywhere) generally leave stuff to the last moments, I think by starting this weekend (got 2 single spaced pages done) I might actually be ahead of the others, but it's still lotsa work.

Thanks for the support, but I think that might make me wanna hang around here more, which may be counter-productive

Hang in there, man. Worst thing to do at this time is get stressed. Keep your head up, keep cool, and keep workin'!
Good Luck!
