Want to get it done quick so I can move on to my other assignments.
I'm like 1/2 done with my paper bUTTTTTTT it's way under page count. sigh. :( time to stretch it out.
Usually I'd just keep writing until I've reached the definite end of the essay (even if it means exceeding the word count), and then I trim it down as necessary in the edit ^^
yk I'd yap too but I can't, as of the past few months it's been hard getting motivation to even do something as simple as write a character post. I haven't been able to write a decent paper as easily in about a year and a half. It's just been gibberish for a while now.

My marks have been consistently good since starting uni (between 58-69 out of 100 = High B/Low A grade) but I still stress over trying to write a "good" paper :lol:

The lowest I'd ever gotten was 43/100 in an anthropology module (to be fair, I neither wanted to take it nor was I about to endure more history about my city for the billionth year in education).

Aiming for the 50s in this Shakespeare module - that would reach my standards. If I get higher, great! I surpassed my own expectations. Same with prose. I got 68 last year which was almost a 1st (A grade) - I'm gonna aim for 70 if I can help it ^^

I'm currently wondering if I need to schedule an appointment with my advisor to pick a science class for next semester assuming that I don't get at least a D.. on my final grade for biology and the lab..

- that's literally the only course (plus lab) that i need to take to graduate :sob:

I hate core classes so much :sob:

So long as I get above 40, I'll have passed. I met the requirements last year to properly transfer onto creative writing so that takes away most of the pressure.

When I did French, I had to do every single module offered on the course (since I only did single honours).

Thankfully, I don't need to sit anywhere near as many modules this year since uni can take one of my best French marks to add credit to my English w/ C.W degree :)
