Poll of the Day > I've put off all my homework this week until just right now.

(+) Yeah! (+)

So I have to read two novellas and a few articles and go over some notes for an exam I have at 8am tomorrow.

And I have to find about ten sources about the life and critical reception of Frances Brook for an essay I have to write.

I have the write a 2000 word essay (<_<) on the life and reception of Frances Brook by 5pm

I have a short assignment due at 10am: six short answer questions over what non-black minorities were doing during the civil rights movement.




Don't bother me, PotD! I'm busy!

I got Cs for this reason. When I go back to college I'm doing the homework the night it's given.

I say that now...

It's really not that much.

A simple research paper. 2000 words won't take long. The novellas are less than a hundred pages long each. It really shouldn't be that big of a deal I hope.

When writing papers in college, save all your references to a file so you can look up the quotes when writing future papers. So many times you can use a quote for a different reason, to support something else in a future paper.

Considering the HUGE number of papers you will need to write to just get a masters (not sure what you are going for), you can end up using the same references many times, which saves a ton of time. This is especially true if your studying a specific field, since the topics will often be similar.

Also keep templates of previous papers of course so you don't have to deal with the formatting etc.

Probably failed my exam, but it's only worth 2% of the final grade anyway so that's fine.

Finished my report with a little more than 45 minutes to spare.

Now sleep.

Oh, and I got an extension on my civil rights assignment. Perks of having your prof know and like you :b

wtf my professor gave me a 70 as a participation grade.

I'm doing above average in this class! Shouldn't the good grades I'm getting on her homework assignments and quizzes indicate that I'm participating and doing the required readings?
