sophomore year in high school we have a big preject called the I-Search, pretty much takes up a quarter for english class with a bunch of research and checkpoints along the way, three parts to it- the what i want to research part which you write before doing the isearch (100 word minimum, no problem, did that on schedule) part two was about what you learned (275 word minimum, no problem, not so on schedule, midnight the night before after drinking with my brother), and part three was the whole research project and all the facts and shit (1500 word minimum, i had worked on it a little but pretty much had to rewrite everything i had done, night before until about 3am) also had to have 15 sources and 75 notecards handed in with the project... i got an A on this project and never revised part two which was really bad because i was still on a buzz, and i found an entire sentence the day i got it back that was completely scrambled. i dont know how my teacher graded that but it mightve helped that i had rambled on to make it like 2,200+ words long.
probably my greatest acheivement in high school to date.
