Take a break, get some coffee and then try to get some more done. Like at least lay outs so you're organized. Then maybe find the quotes you'll use in the papers. So then you're just left with writing them. :)

putting things off longer is only going to make you more stressed.

Well, you know how much time you have better than us, it's really your call.  For me?  Whenever I stop losing focus, I have two options.  I either go take a shower, and that helps refresh me for a little longer, or otherwise I sleep.  I typically start my papers the night before they are due, so I would sleep for about 2 hours, then wake up and write the rest of the night.

You see to have a bit more time, so if you can't focus, take a break.  There's nothing wrong with taking time off... I really think that if you DON'T take a break, you end up working much slower.  Taking a break may use up some time, but after, you're more energized to keep going.  It might end up making you work faster in the long run.

So I would say take a break.  If that means sleeping or going and playing a game for a bit, so be it.  But whatever you do, you should probably stop for now and either go back tomorrow or later today.

yeah i've organised when i need to have each one finished by in the next few days and i'm going to get some books from the library tomorrow to do references, but it's half 6 pm now, so i can only get internet ones tonight really.
i'm just so scared i won't get the done in time.

Don't put ot off until tomorrow, from expeerience I find that you will keep putting it off afterwards. Give yourself a break, go get a drink and relax for 30 minutes to an hour. Then get cracking!

Oh wow, that sounds harsh.  I would suggest taking a break for now, and going back to it in like an hour.  You don't have to finish it, but put some work into it at least.

I recently had a paper that I had to finish over the weekend, but I just couldn't work on it no matter what I tried.  I was just stuck at the second paragraph after the introduction, and even though I knew what I had to do and wanted to say, it just wasn't coming to me.  Finally, what I did (and found helped me a lot in the end) was I skipped ahead to the next section and did that.  Then, after I had a good night's sleep, I woke up and finished my paper, editing the things I had done the day previous, and adding what was necessary to finish the paper.

So I say work on it, but work on the sections that are on your mind right now instead of trying to write it all in order at once.  Then, once you have everything down, go through and edit and reorganize until you have the paper the way you want.  Trust me, it'll be a lot easier that way.
