Default Just finished the longest report of my life

Well I just got done with my report for Government. I like a idiot put it off till the last min and spend almost two day on the computer typing it (literaly, I only left to eat, sleep for like 4 hours and ummmm.....nature). I started on it yesterday at about 6:00 PM and worked till like 3:00 AM, then I started back at 8:00 Am and got done about 15 min. ago which was like mid-night. There were really only like 26 questions I had to answer, but the longest question took 24 pages to answer!!!!!!. It's proablly like 60-70 pages in all. Man, I'm glad I done with that. Good new is that Christmas vacation starts in 2 days.

Wow.....60-70 pages huh.....ouch......that hurts.....I just got done with a report on the early Mustang for Comp class.....only like 5 pages long.....hehe.....

I'll attach it in case anyone wants to read the thing....I just kind of threw pretty much all of it together out of my head and the use of a couple books.....turned out better than I thought it would though.....

Nevermind......it won't let me attach it because it's a Word file and I guess you can't use that type of extension on here....well piss on it.....

Woh' that is quite the report. You sound like me, leave it to the last day. hehehe... But I've never had that long. I wouldn't mind just typing it but I don't even think I have enough knowledge in my head to write 70 pages on everything I knew. lol

It's time to sit back and enjoy Christmas Holidays!

Ok when you said "longest report" I was thinking like 8-9 pages. The most I did was a 12 page report in high school several years ago. But over 60 pages... thats just WRONG!

Have you checked your fingers to see if they have any skin left?

Ha, that's what I thought.

Dude, crap, what kind of government class was that (more details)???

Think of it as practice, you just may have to do it again (while you're getting paid for it).

Anyway, believe it or not, I just finished a 90-page FY01 summary report at work. It's getting reviewed by the top dawgs and in mid January, they're gonna tell me what I need to revise-- at least I don't have to look at it until then.

Reports.....aren't they just great? I don't really mind writing reports or speeches about stuff I like. I wrote about a 20 minute speech on my car last year too for my Communications class. I didn't mind that.

It's when I have to write about something I couldn't care less about that I don't enjoy it one bit, naturally.

I can talk and talk and talk about my car, so that's no problem. But if I know nothing about my subject, then I have a very hard time writing the report. I suppose that's how it is with everyone though. Unless they know everything about everything!

Damn, Tire Burner, thats some typing now. In all my years (6 of them) in college, I never had to do a report/paper more than 20 pages.

Holy Hell, 60? I would say "Screw it, take that and stick it! I'll just change Majors.....AGAIN....."

Glad to hear you survived and got it done. I usually wait till the last minute also. Like you, I spent two days typing a report for Criminal Justice. Only left the computer to Eat....Use bathroom...Smoke cigarettes (Did alot of that.) and to make coffie. I didnt sleep. I went to class, handed it in, turned around went home and slept till I had to go to work. That sucked.
