    Finished my essay about 11 pm

    It was a killer this one as I had no idea what to put!

    Well done on finishing it Phil.

    handed both mine in today, met up with a friend who still hadn't completed both essays on the day they were due in.
  • Well i managed to stop procrastinating between the hours of 10am and 4 pm! Well, maybe not, i made it to uni though! that was a good start i felt!

    Well done Phil and Tallulah! I'm jealous of your essay completeing skills. haha

    Well,I finished mine at 2pm today and the cut off was 5pm! Goodness knows how much caffeine I've consumed over the past 24 hours!!

    Oh the stress of it...but will it be any differenet with the next one? Doubt it!

    I was thinking today and I've realised that I will never be one of those super-organised people but I'm sure I can improve a bit...dunno how though :confused:

    I am so going to be more organised next year as well as getting things done well before the deadline, if i didnt have internet access or a tv or a life i would be ok.

    That is what you always say next better and it never is.

    The secret is forcing yourself to do a bit each day. Say maybe 200 words a day and then you can meet the goal without feeling to put out.
