Essay Burnout

[Crusty McPottydoodle]

I wrote an essay summary for an as yet unwritten essay and a full essay yesterday and still have one more essay to write that is due tonight. I hate that I am such a procrastinator, but so far I am sitting with 90% in this class after 3 essays, all of which were written on the day they were due. I realise I am one of those who tends to do some of my best work under pressure, but I really hate that feeling of pressure and walking that very fine line between last minute, but doable and too late and impossible.

Feller is exactly the same- always producing at the last minute. What a pair we are.

Anyway, I just needed to take a minute to get that off my chest so I can focus on my last essay.

Tomorrow is French test and homework panic!

Thank goodness there are only about 4 weeks left of class and then I get my 2 weeks in off-grid paradise.

Gee, thanks "mum".

This one is only worth 5% of my final grade and I am seriously considering blowing it off. The reading involved for it is very dry and I am having a hard time keeping my focus.

We're exactly the same way. Hence the name "11th hour furniture"

Good luck- you can get it done

You say all these things and how you need a lot of work to do, yet you're posting on BYC!!!

Get to work!!!

LOL I sometimes do the same thing. But only when I have a lot to do and not enough time.

Good luck! Next week is Thanksgiving break!

Yeah, but it was a pretty quick post. I am on my last paragraph. Just struggling a bit with the wording for my final sentence.


I already had thanksgiving last month (we Canadians like a bit of a break between turkey feasts

), so no break for me now until the middle of December.

Procrastinators are we...Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow.

Done!

Thanks for all the support. I think it did help to just make the post and then the thought was completely off my mind and invading the minds of others.

Time for a nice cup of tea.
