The paper is due on Friday. It's supposed to be 5 or so pages long, I almost have 1. (and it sucks.)

I didn't sleep last night or the night before, so I'm a bit tired.

Decide, please.

5 pages, double spaced? I mean, everyone is different... for me, a paper that short would be done overnight... all my papers were (even the one's that were 12 pages double spaced minimum). I would just pull all-nighters.  

 It's a matter of knowing yourself. I know my limitations, and I know the paper. If you still have a lot of researching to do for your paper, then make sure you try and get most of that done tonight. That way, tomorrow, you don't have to scramble to find things, because you can realize whether or not you'll have to go to the library tonight if you're missing something.  

 So really, it's your call, but if you're too tired to be able to focus on it, get some rest. It's better to have a clear mind, instead of being miserable and writing anything just to get more pages written down, you know?  

 Oh and... Beowulf O__O... brings back bad memories... though nothing was worse than Sir Gawain and the Green Knight O__O.


The Green Knight was terrible. Beowulf is alright.. I always think of him as the last true "man."  

Papers that short normally only take me night, which is why I'm debating over tonight or tomorrow. It shouldn't take me more than an hour or two, once I get rolling. I think I'm going to bed, though. For now, anyway.


Exacly... once you get the beginning done, from here, it's simple.  I just hated the green knight because we didn't get translations... our teacher was laughing the whole year because we were complaining about Chaucer, and he said that Gawain would get worse O__O.

Lol... I'm not very good in English personally, so it made it a bit difficult, especially since this teacher can read middle English adn stuff... But oh well.

Sleep and do it tomorrow. Your writing will only go more down hill if you're tired.

You shouldn't have put it off. But I think you should do half tonight and half tomorrow night. Just so it doesn't sound rushed..What's the topic?

Beowulf. And I put it off because I had to use this fucking huge dictionary that they only have at libraries who have old lady hours. Also I just write better under pressure.

But yeah, it's on language in Beowulf.

Sleep tonight since you haven't and do your paper tomorrow. You will have more energy tomorrow because you will have gone to bed.
