"The more you read the more you know, the more you know the more places you'll go"

Just read the assessment essay titles and requirements and I'm feeling a little stressed! I have 5, 2000 word essays due around the same time... On top of my online final and weekly online quizzes....I don't HATE essays but I surely wouldn't say they're my favorite. Especially when my whole class grade or "mark" is weighed on this one essay. I'm thinking... I need to write a really good essay. I tend to work good under pressure, as in I have a nasty habit of sometimes leaving essays for the last minute and seem to do good on them. I am definitely trying something new and I'm going to start them early like now so I don't feel too stressed around that time, plus it will give me a chance to edit them. Even though I am in a totally different country I have been very good at keeping up even ahead with all my work and making sure I do extra homework before I go on any weekend trips or anything of the sort. I'm very positive that I will excel in my essays and get good marks! I'm super super dedicated and can be an over achiever at times. I'm taking four classes here PLUS two online classes from the University of Utah. People gave me negative reactions when they heard this but I've been good so far and I like being busy which is kind of why I took the online ones, I couldn't stand not doing anything for a month before I actually came here. I have time in the future to slow down but right now I have goals (double major for 2012) and the only way I'll get them done is by moving and doing things NOW!

I'm required to read about two chapters a week from each of these books... The chapters consist of at least 40-50 pages so it is a good amount of reading... plus for my pleasure I'm reading Jane Eyre. My classes are interesting so the reading isn't too bad, it's just time consuming. (I'm missing one book but you get the idea)

Hope all is well!
