I have come to this conclusion based on a homework assignment that I just finished; I received this assignment yesterday, to be due tomorrow; it was originally assigned two weeks ago, but I was sick and therefore missed it until this last Tuesday, where I learned that other students were getting it back. After discussing it with the teacher, he said that I could turn it in on Friday with a 10% dock in my grade. Unfortunately, the guidelines were not posted that Tuesday night, so I sent him a message and he got them posted on Wednesday.

I spent from about midnight to six writing this five page paper; on the required list was five sources (I went with four because one of the sources is impossible for me to get with only two days to do this), all of which I had to use and quote from, in addition to an explanation of democratization. The idea was to address a potential change in the political system and to discuss the benefits of said change, and the arguments against it.

I wrote out this five page paper, wrote up my bibliography and sources page... and then I realized that I'd been writing in the Microsoft Office's new line spacing format "Multiple" when I was supposed to be writing in double spaced. So I fixed this.

I wrote a NINE PAGE PAPER last night. Nine fricken pages on a subject that I don't even care that much about; I just don't want to lose the full 100 points that this paper is worth. I get the feeling that perhaps I write too much. Just maybe.
