Since I am supposed to submit a 10 page paper writing sample for grad school, I asked one of my profs if I could change our 6-8 page paper due tomorrow into a 10 page one and have her look at if for me so I could use it for grad school.
Well. So. Needless to say I haven't started the paper -- and I'll admit that when I wrote the proposal I was not really thinking *too* hard about my topic. It's been in the back of my mind for a while actually. And well...I only have today to write it. Interesting because I have never written a 10 page essay for any of my English classes so I'm not sure *why* I thought I could do it in a day.
...
Anyway I know what I have to do - get focused. I need to make my topic better, workable. (If I can........) It doesn't help that my 14 page paper is constantly coming into my head, like some foreboding event just on the horizon. But. Gotta stay focused.

GANBARE!
I hate being in this kind of pressure. I always get a panicky feeling of ohshitohshitohshit. And somehow I end up procastinating until 2 in the morning. At 3:30 I feel like crying and at 4;30am im hunched over writing nonstop cuz i really have 2 hrs left and its like ohfuckohfuckohfuck!!!
You can do it! Suprise yourself. I wrote a (leave it to the last minute) 18 page essay in 10 hours once. Just stay focused. Wipe of that sweat and just do it.
Good luck! :)
