10 pages, or something like that

I had to write a 10 page proposal with out using I.  Does anyone know how hard that is?  I love to write and have experiences in there!  With out the personal touch it feels like another report and that makes me feel like I am just writing someone elses idea that has already been written before.  It's slightly frusterating for me.

So I was doing my paper and decided that I just hated it.  I scrapped the entire thing and started over yesterday.  When is it due?  Today.

I have words on 9 pages and an abstract and 2 full pages of research that I did over the course of 6 hours yesterday and 2 hours today.  I am spent!  I was going to try and get all 10 pages, as the paper is required to be, but I feel if I just go on for another page that it will be junk at the end and just really make the over all paper seem like I did not care.

I should be impressed that I did a 10 (almost) page paper in 1 (basically) day, but I am not. Because lets face it, research and citing took up most of the time to do the paper.  If I had been able to use pronouns as I do in my every day language I would have been able to bang it out evern faster.

My next task will be to come up with a 5 minute presentation that I have to do in front of the class.  Thankfully, that is due next week, and I can use pronouns lol.
