A conversation with my brain. Who are you calling loco?
Brain: Dear Sarah, you have written half of the blasted essay in 2 days, with 4 days left to spare. You should seriously consider terminating the panic, because if you continue this awesome writing trend of yours you will finish the essay with 2 days left to spare! Also, remember your first year at uni, when you waited until the day before to start and finish an essay and you still passed.
Me: I don't want to just pass, I want a good mark, and if I don't get a good grade my options will close.
Brain: But you will still get a diploma.
Me: But I may not be able to transfer to Sydney, and probably not go on student exchange to a hot, Latin country.
Brain: It's not like you'll have the money to go to a hot, Latin country anytime soon.
Me: You're not being very supportive.
Brain: I'm being realistic.
Me: Exactly.

My paper's only half of yours, but there are 3 other assignments due on the same day. It's the bell grading system that is freaking me out, because it's already certain that most people will get the lowest grade, and I don't want to be in that category.
Meanwhile, I"m sitting here watching Sleepy Hollow clips and eating discounted Easter eggs. Mmm...turkish delight.
