Half yearlies tomorrow. I've been trying to get a damn essay plan done for one of the 2 essays for English Adv. 9 Hours on that. 90 Words to show. Every time I get an idea it turns out I can't find a quote or technique to show it in the texts, it doesn't link through the texts, or it doesn't coincide with the question. Stressing like crazy. I hate this.

focus on another subject rather then wasting 9 hours over 90 words.....when u think of something write it down and get back to it later.

study for your essay in a different way..

try work backwards? deconstruct your text, pull out themes, techniques and quotes and then work with them to form an argument or idea. just one suggestion..

but you definitely have to try studying in different ways if things aren't working.

Umm.. Okay, back on topic: If you're like me, do it on paper. I tried to do my English essay on computer for days and I only ended up writing my intro. Ended up doing my essay on the day before it was due in.. (on paper) :(
