The moral of that story was that you should deal with things right away otherwise they blow up into things much larger than you can handle.
Clearly I did not learn much from this story until I think about it in hindsight because I have many essays to write which I did not start early or I did not do the work for something which caused me to have to write another essay.
In short I had over 6000 words of essays to write plus 4 exams to study for in the space of 2 weeks, which then became 6000 words and 4 exams in 1 week.
Now it is 3500 words and less than 3 days until my first exam...
It's times like this I wish I could duplicate myself to get more work done, even at the risk of falling into a coma once i'd finished it and reunited my duplicates, or time travel so I could whip my past self into doing the work... which would technically create a time paradox because the current me should not be with past me if I had done the work in the first place... oh god... why did i start that train of thought...
