...I don't have anything against essays all that much. Sure they're a pain in the ass to write, but other than that I'm pretty good at writing them. And being the kind of writer I am, I always go over the limit of pages given. Like, if a professor wants eight pages, I'd end up giving him 14 or something like that.

This, unless its absolutely a useless one and has some obscenely low required page amount. Which is rare, also those two things usually happen in conjunction
Oh yeah, that's true. Like if its something like two pages, than I can do that in like 30 minutes. Real essays though I tend to go a bit... overboard, even if its something I don't even care to write about.

Yeah, you don't... get too many of those "two page" essays in college anyway. Ironically enough, I have a one page problem in business stats to do for next week.
Peace.

I got a bunch of 2/3 page essays in college, mostly in my writing classes. Being a biology major was awesome, you never had to write papers.

I've got 45.4% of an essay due in less than five hours written, though I have read the 116 pages I'm supposed to pull quotes from, and have a few quotes just ready to go.

Same class as the essay that inspired this thread, which I got a 94 on, which was surprising, and better than everyone else in the class I've asked (in your face people who worked on it for a week)

Sldo: Not having slept in 18ish hours is starting to be bad, and will probably only get worse once I hit the 30-mark.  That's never a good time to be in class.

Well, I know soon enough I'll have essays again, but in the meantime I have a little breathing room. Taking certification courses is much easier on my nerves, I must say.

I have a paradoxicall relationship with essays; on the one hand, I have whole journals full of essays that span scores of pages on what many, I imagine, would consider the driest, most boring crap to ever spawn from the heads of the world's intellectuals - trends in evolution, the nature of male and female sexuality, and even a 229 page book report on African history.  Yet, I will procrastinate to the very last minute on a 5-10 page school essay.  I don't like doing things just for the grade, and I'm very independent when it comes to my avenues of intellectual expression.

Peace.

Time is a an odd comodity for people; it's wasted, killed, and there always seems to be too much of it on your hands, yet there are those who have the nerve to complain when it finally runs out.
