queen of procrastination UGH i hate this. i'm such the slacker...see, i had this one assignment due on wednesday (that was five days ago-- six if you're anal) and we had a whole two weeks to do it and i just NOW finished. UGH. i dont know HOW it happened i guess i was too tired to write by the time i was done researching and stuff... i was all ready to write about arsenic and asbestos and how they cause cancer, and then i dont know what happened! somewhere between finishing research and sitting down to write the report, my mind gave up on me. i just couldn't write. i got some of it down, and then my brain died. or i would write a couple words, then i couldnt think of anything more to write. it was just too open ended a question for me to answer sufficiently... something like, "assess the excess cancer risk posed by asbestos and arsenic exposure in drinking water and what are symptoms a family might look for after 7 years of low dose exposure". it still feels so incomplete. but hey it's done. and i think i did what they asked me to.
but now i'm scared. this is like a real life situation! a family comes in, scared they've been slowly poisoned for seven years and they want to know if they're at risk for cancer! i should be able to do this! i should know where to go to look for information, i shoud be able to translate that into terms this family can understand! what if i get the assignment back and the answer i have is wrong...? i shouldn't feel like i did an incomplete assessment. i shouldn't "think" i did enough... i mean, you can't go around in life doing a half assed job at your... er job.
