DOES anyone have spare time tonight? (1 Viewer)

[amunce]

Just like everyone else in year 12 right now, i am stressing alot, and English is not my strong point.

Is there anyone out there that has a good understanding of the Imaginative Journeys focus, or even just Journeys Area of Study in general that could like speak to me on MSN or the phone, because basically i just need someone to explain to me how to set up an essay plan for structure or just give me some last minute tips/advice?

Otherwise are there any hotlines or internet chatrooms that exist that anyone knows of?

lol.. i know i sound ridiculous but im probably cofident that im fairly lost for English..

damn.. ok well thanks to anyone if they can help me out here.

cheers
