Final word count: 1076 words and I'm finally done.

What a relief!

Special thanks go out to Jordan, who gave me an idea that materialized and amounted to 237 words in my essay :)

If it weren't for you, I'd most probably still be struggling to cough up a few more pathetic examples or trying to lengthen the existing paragraphs as much as I possibly can.

And that could have taken ages.

Having to start the new year with uncompleted homework has dampened my mood so much, I haven't been able to manage a smile today. Can you imagine waking up in the morning of the new year only to be forced to sit in front of the computer, not to surf the internet, but to squeeze your brain juices dry in the hope of coming up with a decent paragraph for an essay you have no intention of completing?

It was hell, and having friends, who started after I did, complete theirs before I had even reached the 800-word mark was stressful.

But now that I've got it done, HALLELUJAH! I shall move onto other things to try and salvage my New Year's day.

Before I hussle off though, here's my resolution for the year 2007!
