Currently feeling stressed up over Ethics Assignment. The deadline is tomorrow, and yet I only manage to complete 5% of it. Seriously OMG wei. I manage to persuade my tutor to extend the deadline to monday due to my involvement in events, without deducting my marks, and yet I still cant manage to complete it. Maybe a huge part of the problem is I dunno how to write a business plan!!! >.<
