Starts panicking. 

Emails professor: “HELP I’M CONCERNED ABOUT NOT MAKING IT TO TEN PAGES”

“I am out of the office until October 13 and am not easily accessible by phone OR email!”

PROFESSOR HAS WRITTEN BACK

Me: 

Okay, whatever. She’s got some free time to do shit like this 

Professor: 

You should use 1.5 space instead of single space. That might help. Also you’re doing well, working hard, here’s a couple more things that may help but overall, you’ve got enough.

Donations of coffee, fruit, and chocolate welcome.
