Illness and uni and GAH

Hey

So I'm in a bit of a pickle. I sort of ended up leaving my essays till the last minute - 3 due in for the 14th. Now, last night I got sent home from work because I was in so much pain - my back started aching really intolerably, and was achy all over, and my throat hurt so badly.

Anyway, I'm in bed today, still feeling crap. This has thrown me off my essays though, cos I aimed to have one of them done by tonight.

I'm working Wed, Fri Sat next week, so I don't have that much time left and now I'm completely panicking as I don't see how it's actually possible to get it done? It would have been if I wasn't ill, but I don't know how long I'm going to feel like this for, and it doesn't seem like serious enough to get a doctors note?

Seriously panicking :frown:

I need them doing before Sunday, as I have unescapable plans.

Asking to go home early is not an option.

Work isnt really the issue here.

Have emailed my tutor, see what he says.

Why a friends laptop?
I'm on my laptop in bed now.

Laptop isn't the issue. It's the fact I need to go library and read a load of books but I can't move. Closing this now cos it's just pissing me off.
