    So I've had a really tough week of midterms - they've all been piling up, and I've been studying extra hard, because I'm taking Statistics, which has been a challenge for me. I studied the past few days for the two midterms I had today, and had the midterm for my Social Work class the week before that. 

    I knew I had a term paper due in Social Work tomorrow, but I thought she said in class it was 2-3 pages, or maybe 3-4. We're presenting them in two weeks, and she wanted us to "add on to the papers." 

    She's pretty much stuck in the dark age, and doesn't post anything online. So when I couldn't find the exact page length, I didn't worry too much. 

    Well I found it... 7-9 pages... no late submissions, no e-mail or mailbox submissions. EEK. Looks like it's going to be an all-nighter, and I have a Stats quiz and study session in the morning. I don't know how I made that mistake! 

    Just had to take a break from my freakish research and writing speed to let you all know I could use some words of encouragement. I really thought I was done with the midterm stress!

    I had those nights back in college...and sometimes here at work when last minute stuff comes up. Just take a deep breath and remember it'll be over soon. Good luck!

    Oh God!  I have when that kinda stuff happens!

    I am in school too and feel insanely busy

     

    I would say my worst time was when I took an online class and I got confused about the date of the final. I emailed the teacher about what I thought was tomorrow's final (which I had not studied at ALL for) and she wrote back that I had missed the final and it had been LAST week!!  Talk about panic.  Thankfully it all worked out....and this will work out too :-)

    Good luck!  Try ginseng....I like it for staying awake.

    Sprague, I am always terrified I'm going to do that! I double triple check times and locations, and still have panic attacks about it the day of. I'm glad it worked out for you! 

    I'm progressing along with the paper... on page 4 right now, not too bad. I think I'm going to take a short break to do the Shred because that always gets my energy levels up.

    As a bee still in college, I know exactly how you feel!! I've pulled so many all nighters that I seriously think I've logged more hours into being at the library more than my own house! My secret weapon: snacks and 5 hour energy! I swear it works and I've never had a crash or anything and it's completely safe in moderation. Just breathe and try to focus, YOU CAN DO IT!!! Good luck, girl, you're going to be just fine and Im sure the paper and your quiz will go fine!!

    GOOD LUCK!!!

    I just saw this post--this sounds JUST like me last semester. If only I had the bees last semester! I had a stats class, psych testing and a few other pretty tough classes. There were days that I would just come home and cry. My mr. lova-lova (haha, I should be sleeping...can you tell?) was SO supportive. He would always read my research proposal, papers, etc. and let me know if he thought it sounded okay. I did a HUGE research project last semester so if you need anyone to vent to PLEASE keep me in mind, I can totally relate!!!

     

    Gook luck!!!
