Nerves of ... Jello

Damn.

Damn. Damn. Damn. Damn. Damn.

I have a paper due tomorrow. Not a rough draft, credit/no credit paper. An honest to God, true paper worth 300 points. 1/4 of my entire grade in this class.

My first real law school grade.

Oh my God.

What the hell am I doing here?

Writing in law school is very different because you have to be very precise in what you say, you have to constantly use the same words because a different word might have a different legal meaning, and you have to adhere strictly to the page limit. I have my rough draft of the paper back with my teacher's corrections. The problem is his grading is so subjective, I'm absolutely terrified of this paper. We turned in a small rough draft and I took those corrections and put the corrected text verbatim in my second rough draft and he still marked things wrong.

It's throwing me off completely.

I keep trying to start revising this paper because it's due by 5pm tomorrow and I can barely get through it.

Moi, if you have any Tums, will you send them my way? I'm out.
