*flail* of the good sort this time!

I got everything done Friday/Saturday. Did not even want to THINK about my French essay since I finished it--I essentially researched and wrote a seven-page essay in two days, including two all-nighters and maybe a three-hour nap somewhere in there. I finished it and emailed it to my professor literally five minutes before the dress rehearsal for the concert on the day it was due, repeating "done is better than good, done is better than good" like a mantra to keep me from editing it to death and missing the deadline. I then steadfastly refused to think about it all weekend, because it was seven pages of nonsensical bullshit I'd come up with at three in the morning and I was probably going to get a D on it.

Today I wake up to an email from my French professor saying "Your final essay was so great that I took the liberty of submitting it for the annual French department prize; I hope you don't mind."

sjl;asdfasdf universe, this is not encouraging me to develop good study skills!
