reviewing old information: University Problems!

Ok remember I mentioned that essay I have to write on Radio Drama, I forgot to look at the fact I have to make the product that I have created apart of it. So looking over a powerpoint that contains stuff that we either did in the first year or second year of university and think WHAT??? See if you can understand this and factor it into what I am writing about: • Medium: How does your programme fit within the medium in its current state of technological and industrial development? • Format: Does your project correspond to or depart from and existing format?

Again the title seems vague but it's that time of the year when I have so many deadlines (today included) where I have a ton of work to do and no good starting point. I've already written 1 essay which seems to be enough but now have to do another and this is where my brain begins to melt. I have not time to do this essay and also clean up my actual production that goes along side this. So i'm sat in an editing suit looking at my essay and just wanting to bang my head against the wall. I did yesterday buy something to aid with my stress levels but I forgot it and also I don't think my uni would like me chucking a rugby ball around in a room full of computers. But you know what can you do. So apart from using my back up plan I'm now staring at my computer screen with the cursor just blinking back and forth looking at me to get my work done. This is the final stage and I need to get it done, but I feel over- worked and under pressure from everything and everyone.
