Cabin Girl

I have stayed inside my dorm all day except for the two times I trekked to the DC to eat. In less than 21 hours, I have an 8-10 page research paper due. That is the main reason that I have stayed right in front of my computer all day. So far, I have gotten only six pages of good material written. My stream of thoughts digress everywhere...so technically it may even be less.
Oh FEAR!
Yesterday Fuchs, my English professor, told us that we couldn't get an extension at all. That was when I felt doom approach me or perhaps just a tinge of anxiety. Remember I never worry constantly about schoolwork. I used to know one person who was overly concerned with schoolwork. Sadly, she became terrified of any "bad" grade...and always drifted so close to tears. As for me, the only time that I drifted close to tears because of a poor grade was in PE in sixth grade...because of my inability to tumble. Told you so, I ain't coordinated. It wasn't because of the consequence of the grade...it was because that particular incident proved that it was true that I couldn't do anything coordinated. What a sad story. It's funny though...I laughed (well became slightly upset first) when I failed my drive test. I was somewhat indifferent when I got my first F on a math test. That in particular was my fault because I had barely done any homework. It was called senioritis. Anyway in English now, my grade is sorta teetering between a B and A, which is quite annoying. It's funny how English teachers in high school graded my essays so easily...but in college...boom, *whack* *smack!*. Unfortunately I can never take my usual approach toward writing essays--psuedo-plagiarism, because they have sophiscated databases here.

Oh and I don't want to follow my roommate's path who procrastinated right up to the hour that her paper was due. Yet I feel like I am speaking too early...because...suddenly I feel like putting my paper off.
No Jennifer, don't do it. Don't. DON'T!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DO NOT START TAKING A NAP! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
