procrastination.

JRP.

Hearing these three letters may cause various side effects such as nausea, headaches, and a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders.

At least for the juniors at my school.

Now is the time of the Junior Research Paper.

(Yes, it deserves capital letters; it's that important.)

A 5-7 page essay chalk full of quotes, judgments and over the top language that no one actually uses while speaking.

Obviously it's what I'm currently not working on.

I think the longest essay I've ever written was a solid 3 pages that may have spilled over into a 4th. But this 5 page minimum seems so daunting. I'll be lucky if I get 4 full pages. Ugh.

Anyway, my story is "Jeeves Takes Charge" by P.G. Wodehouse.

I'll be honest, I only chose it because of the "Jeeves and Wooster" TV show on the BBC from the 90s starring Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry.

It is pretty funny, though. Especially when I picture Hugh Laurie acting like a complete buffoon.

Well, I think I've procrastinated enough.

Time to get back to work.
