I think it is a general belief of all students that papers are evil...

What's that in words? If it's less than 5,000 words you should stop feeling sorry for yourself, otherwise you have my sympathy. ;)

Yes, I too feel your pain.
I have a paper do tomorrow as well. Only 10 or so pages.
The joy of higher education: the higher you go, the more papers you have to write. Not only do you have to write more of them (all my classes now are 3 or more per quarter), but they expect you to actually know the stuff. Analysis and conclusions are all that matter after a good presentation of the situation.
Oh well, just two more papers and this class is done. Then I can relax for a couple of weeks before the next one starts.

I'm only joking - that's bad enough. :o I always have an irresistable urge to go back and delete, correct edit, etc... nothing worse. Good luck with it.

These papers would be so much easier if I could use my own opinions, but instead I have to write a research paper, something I've been doing for ages. I am forbidden from using any of my own ideas from getting through until the end of the paper. Curses.
And I've got 6 of the 9 pages done.

I just wrote somewhere around 21.000 words for an essay on the D-day...
That's about forty three pages of text. And I'm only in the swedish equivilant of high school...

I can top that. D-Day is interesting, meanwhile a thirty page paper on "The Effects of base content percentage upon acid neutralization over 10 minutes" in 11th grade (US high school)

Ah, your page margins aren't big enough... I get about 330 words to a page, so 10,000 words takes up 30 pages or so, 1.5 spaced. I don't like the sound of Swedish high schools - 21k??? The longest essay I had to write for my undergraduate degree was 12,000 words, and that was my final dissertation.

I myself am working on a 10-page paper on the Greek myth of Orpheus...I want to bang my head on a wall. But at least it's my last paper...ever, hopefully. That's about 2,500 words, according to Word.
