Today, I finished a 50-page term end thesis essay on the history of Russia. Looking over the final requirements once more, I find I made just a tiny little mistake. It was supposed to be a thesis on "Prussia". The paper's due tomorrow. FML

Today, I was prioritizing my extreme amount of homework. I read over the front page of my psychology paper seeing that it was pretty easy questions, I decided to do it last. Little did I know there was a 8 page essay on the back of the page. It's 12:19 am. FML

Today, I am expected to write an 8 page essay, due tonight. The reason why I don't even have one page yet? My mom decided to take away the only computer I have the essay saved on because I have an 'F' in English. The essay is for English. FML

Today, I realized I forgot to write a 5000 word essay for my English class. I tried to be calm since I had until midnight to finish, and it was only 8pm. I typed for three hours straight,and finished the assignment. I read over the instruction again, and realized it only had to be 500 words. FML

Today, I broke my dominant hand. My teacher insists we hand-write our essays. I called and asked if it was okay for me to type up the essays. She said no. I have two essays due tomorrow, which count for half my grade. FML

Just do a find and replace. Swap kangaroos for Hitler and koalas for Arnold Schwarzenegger, and you'll probably get at least a C.

start the new one, take the Australia one to your professor so they can see you aren't lying and explain what happened and see if they'll give you an extension

Sixty pages on Austria is way harder. Once you get past Hitler, the separation from Hungary, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Josef Fritzl, you've really gotta put the effort into your research. Australia is much easier. Dingoes, koalas, kangaroos, a Prime Minister who vanished after going for a swim in broad daylight... that's sixty pages with another forty for extra credit.
