Term Papers suck

I have four and half more pages to write about the world expositions in France between 1855 and 1900. It's not even interesting anymore. The paper is due tomorrow, the first draft, so it's not like I can pick a new topic. I have no research time left. Eleven library books surround me on the couch. I make up each sentence in my paper, then find a passage in one of the books that supports it. I shuffle the books around so I have a variety of sources. I haven't bothered doing anything on it in three hours. I need to be done by 7 o' clock. And I still have some stupid math homework to finish.

This is the math homework I should have finished at the Math Homework party I went to last Thursday. Why didn't I get the math done? I was making scones. I know they are a crowd-pleaser, and everyone definitely liked them, but my math homework was left woefully incomplete. Crap.

I wish I were more hardworking. I work at some stuff, so people get this impression that I put effort into stuff, but it's not really true.

If this paper had been finished last week, I could have had this entire break to have fun. It's not like I didn't know this a week ago. I actually was tired every day after school. I actually did have homework and meetings and other things on my mind. But...this paper really sucks.

I'm also bummed I didn't get a chance to test for my license on Friday. Hopefully I can get that done later this week.
